Below is some information regarding each of these areas. To learn more or discuss your individual needs, contact a lawyer at our firm today.
Name Changes
The paperwork involved in name changes can be complicated and difficult to fill out correctly. We work to help clients understand the process and ensure that the paperwork is thoroughly completed within the required deadlines.
Guardianship
Guardianship allows the courts to name an individual to look after the affairs of a person suffering some form of legal incapacity: minors are unable to make contracts or supervise their finances and may require a guardianship and disabled adults, either by age or by illness often need the protection of a guardianship. We can help clients understand how a guardianship works and the process through which a guardianship is created.
Adoption
Adding a new member to your family should be an enjoyable event. We are dedicated to helping clients with the legal aspects of the adoption process in order to efficiently allow you to complete the process and begin your life with the new member of your family as soon as possible.
If you have questions or concerns regarding name changes, guardianship, adoption, or other family law matters, contact an attorney at our firm today. With over 15 years of experience, our firm founder attorney Phyllis Hotchkiss leads our firm in providing thorough and personalized representation to each and every one of our clients.
