Not everyone will get arrested. Not everyone will declare bankruptcy. Nearly everyone will be affected by a family law matter. Divorce, custody battles, alimony, prenuptial agreements, or paternity actions are all life-changing legal procedures. They're also common; they could happen to anyone. Legal issues involving your loved ones may be a challenging and stressful experience, but you do not have to face them alone.
According to statistics from the American Bar Association, approximately 95% of all divorces are uncontested. In an uncontested divorce, you and your spouse would work together to negotiate an out-of-court settlement which addresses all of the issues involved in the case.
Before the family law judge will finalize your divorce, it will be necessary to reach a resolution on the many issues involved in the case, whether this is done through negotiation or by decree of the court.Division of shared property, which includes a determination of what assets are to be considered shared property and what is the separate property of each spouse.

Children are an essential part of most families, and when a division takes place in the household, child custody is a hotly contested issue. Parents will do whatever it takes to ensure that their child's future is protected. If you are fighting for sole child custody or creating a plan for joint custody, it is essential to retain the legal assistance of a Honolulu child custody attorney like myself.
Child support is the monetary contribution of the non-custodial parent to the custodial parent for the proper care of the child. However, child support orders can be issued in situations of joint custody. Ultimately, child support is decided by the child support guidelines which the court and all parties are mandated to follow.
We all want what is best for our children, but every parent has a different idea of what that looks like. To enforce a standard, the Hawaii Department of Human Services provides a Social Services Division (SSD) to protect the welfare of children. Contrary to popular belief, the CWSB does not want to take children away from their families.

This man is very sketchy. I contacted him to see if he can represent me to file a motion in court against my former spouse. I called and no one answered but then he shortly called me back but with a different number. He did not introduce himself and instead said, "you called me?" He still did not introduce himself or identify himself as anything. I proceeded to tell him my situation and if he can assist me. He then only asked what my financial status was. Then told me ya, I can do that, it'll cost you $2500. Do you have that kind of money. These were the only two questions he asked me. I then asked

Steve made me feel as though I was his only client, although I know I wasn't. He provided the best possible outcome, the minimum penalties of my complicated cases. Most importantly, there were no surprises. Things went exactly as he said they would and the prosecutor accepted all aspects of his legal negotiations. He fought for me with all the passion and and the best results of any lawyer at a price that was the best I could find for a winning attorney in his class.
