Family and Matrimonial Law

Whether your family is local or global, our family and matrimonial lawyers will guide you through conflicts with empathy, sensitivity, and determination.
Every family goes through periods of conflict. Sometimes these conflicts are difficult to resolve and families part ways. Families are also increasingly globalized, such as where parents come from two different countries and the children from a third or fourth country, making such conflicts more complicated and drawn-out. Our family and matrimonial lawyers bring experience, determination, and sensitivity to the table, assisting our clients through local and global annulments, divorces, child care and custody disputes, and more.
