Same Sex Couples

Domestic Violence — When one spouse commits or is accused of committing violence against the other, an Attorney specializing in domestic violence laws can help sort through the charges and protect the rights of the parties.

Pre-Nuptial Agreements — Our Firm can customize a pre-marital agreement that sets out each party’s assets, debts and property rights and settles how property and spousal support will be handled in the event of a divorce.

Children’s Issues

Custody — Custody arrangements for your children after a divorce are vital to their well-being. Whether you seek individual, joint or shared custody of your children, you need an experienced family law Attorney to negotiate an arrangement that is best for you and your children. Robin Roshkind, P.A. regularly helps families negotiate, enforce and modify child custody arrangements.

Child Support — Divorce should not leave you and your children destitute. Our Attorneys have years of experience negotiating fair child support payments. We will see that these arrangements are enforced and that they are modified as your family’s needs change.

Visitation — Visitation is when a non-custodial parent is permitted to spend time with his / her child. For decades, our Attorneys have helped parents negotiate agreements tailored to their schedules and their children’s best interests. When negotiation fails to provide a plan agreeable to all parties, our Attorneys will fight in court for children’s rights to visitation, support or supervised visitation. When orders are violated, we will go to court to see the orders are enforced. We also can petition the court to modify agreements.
