While much of family law centers on divorce, we understand that families face a variety of other legal challenges as well. We are there to help our clients with concerns including paternity disputes, child custody plans and protective orders.

We can help you with community property division, child custody and child support plans that work for you and your family. We also offer pre-divorce planning to help you understand the many issues pertaining to divorce or property that concern you, such as dating during divorce.

  • Child and spousal support: Whether you are establishing a child and spousal support plan or you are seeking child support enforcement or child support modification, we can help you find a solution that meets your needs.
  • Grandparents' rights: Our firm can help you understand how to seek visitation if you are a grandparent or other third party interested in maintaining a relationship with a child. It may be difficult, since the court tends to side with the parents, but our firm is fluent in the Louisiana laws that govern grandparents' rights, and we can assist you in pursuing visitation with the child.
  • Increase/decrease of child support due to unemployment: If you have been laid off from a job and are unemployed, you may be able to seek a modification in your child support payments due to the lack of income. However, you must go through the courts to secure a modification in order for it to be legal and enforceable. We can review your situation and determine if seeking an increase or decrease in child support is appropriate.
