Divorce to Domestic Violence With a Fort Walton Beach Attorney

As a lawyer with nearly 20 years of experience focused on family law issues, I know what to expect and how to handle the problems clients face in Florida law. In my law practice, I put my clients first and offer a free initial consultation in most cases.

Take the fear out of the legal equation. Contact me online or call 850-659-7087.

Exclusive Focus on Divorce and Family Law

Over the past two decades, I have worked with thousands of people struggling with family law problems. I have served my clients in the following kinds of situations:

  • Negotiating contested or uncontested divorce for families in military divorce and civilian divorce
  • Establishing child support, custody and visitation rights
  • Handling details in spousal support and paternity
  • Working through the modification process for child support, custody, etc.

Domestic Violence

In addition to family law, I have developed a keen understanding of helping people through domestic violence situations. In these situations, I handle cases that involve:

  • Rapid defense in Department of Children & Families dependency, child protection and termination of parental rights hearings
  • Handling domestic violence injunctions and order of protection hearings

I Do Not Turn Down Clients in Need

Some clients come into my office simply based on a referral, not knowing what else to do. Though some clients needs are not directly involved in my focus area, I do not say "No" to clients. I work to fulfill their needs in any situation I can help, including areas such as:

  • Prenuptial agreements
  • Wills, living wills and powers of attorney
  • General civil litigation
  • Probation violation defense

I offer a free initial consultation in most cases. To schedule an appointment, contact me online or call 850-659-7087.
