Resolving Child Custody/Parenting Plan Issues

And Protecting Children

All parents want their children to have the best possible childhood. Parents going through divorce often fear the impact that a custody dispute might have on the children. Our attorneys  are aware of these issues and keep the child’s best interests in mind when handling child custody cases.

Child custody does not have to be a stumbling block in your path through divorce. Our firm has had great success in resolving this difficult issue through use of negotiation, mediation and collaborative law approaches. If litigation is necessary, we have the strong background in trial advocacy that is required to reach a successful result.

Committed to the Best Interests of Children
At Strauss & Kallus, we are ardent and committed advocates for the rights of children in divorce. Barbara J. Strauss  has taught parenting classes, been appointed to serve as a children’s law guardian (lawyer for the child), and even received an award of merit from the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. Ms. Strauss’s commitment has given our firm experience in complex interstate (and international) relocation cases.

At Strauss & Kallus, we make this process easier by providing clients with honest answers and clear explanations of the law. We work hard to resolve differences, minimize damage and respect the dignity of all concerned.

We understand that every divorce is different. We try to achieve the right legal solutions to each unique situation. Our success is a direct reflection of our commitment to listening and giving clients a meaningful voice throughout the process.

In many cases, we are able to resolve difficult divorce issues such as child custody or property division through negotiation or the dispute resolution approaches of mediation and collaborative law. However, if results cannot be achieved through these methods in your case, you can rely on our years of courtroom experience to effectively protect your interests in trial as well.
