Common questions.
Every case is different. If yours is not here, call (305) 707-4497.
Is the first consultation free?
Yes. The 25-minute phone consultation is free. If you would like more time, the 45-minute in-person consultation at the Miami Lakes office is $100.
My spouse and I agree on everything. Do I still need an attorney?
Agreement makes things simpler, but the terms still have to be written, filed and approved correctly, and a missed detail can be hard to fix later. A consultation is a good way to find out what your agreement should cover.
What is a parenting plan?
In Florida, a parenting plan sets out how parents will share responsibility for their children and the time-sharing schedule. We help you build one around your children's real routines.
We were never married. Where do I start with paternity?
Start with the free phone call. We will talk through where things stand today, what you want for your child and what establishing paternity involves.
What should I bring to talk about alimony?
Bring what you have on income, monthly expenses, assets and debts. Recent pay stubs, tax returns and bank statements are a good start. Do not worry if it is incomplete.
How do I start an uncontested adoption?
Book a consultation and tell us about the family and the child. We will explain the documents involved and what happens at each stage.
When is the office open?
Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM, at 14100 Palmetto Frontage Road, Suite 100, Miami Lakes. You can book online at any time.
