Divorce
We are your Newport News divorce and family law attorney, real estate attorney, business and civil litigation attorney, and estate planning attorney and we look forward to working with you.
Child Support
A court will decide these issues if the parties are unable to agree on them. Custody of children is based up the best interests of the child and is determined by a number of statutory factors, including but not limited to, the relationship existing between each parent and each child, the needs of the child, and the role each parent has played in the upbringing of the child. Virginia has child support guidelines to assist the court in determining how much child support should be paid. The guidelines take into consideration the gross income of each parent and apply that income to arrive at a gross child support figure. Health insurance and child care expenses are then added to determine the final child support figure. Each party then pays their pro-rated portion.
Child Custody and Visitation
Child custody, visitation, and support issues can arise outside of the context of a divorce proceeding and such matters are resolved by the Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court. In addition to representing clients in initial child custody, visitation, and support proceedings, we also provide representation for clients in need of post-judgment custody, visitation, and support modifications. When there is a material change in circumstances, such as the loss of employment or relocation, modification of a prior court order may be necessary.
Adoption
We have the expertise to competently guide our clients through the legal process involved in agency placement, parental placement, and step-parent adoptions. Agency placement occurs when a child is in the custody of a department of social services or a child placement agency, the birth parents parental rights are terminated, custody is granted to the child service agency, and the agency consents to the adoption of the child. A non-agency placement or parental placement adoption occurs when a child is placed in the care of the adoptive parents by the birth parents who voluntarily consent to the adoption and the termination of their parental rights. A step-parent adoption is just that and the desire for a step-parent adoption may arise in several different instances. For example, one birth parent of a child may have passed, the other birth parent may have remarried, and the new spouse may wish to adopt the child. The new spouse simply files a petition for adoption with the birth parent's consent.
Premarital Agreement
Many new couples agree to draw up a prenuptial agreement to take effect upon their marriage. Prenuptial agreements may be drawn up to protect the assets of each individual or to protect the rights of any children the individuals may have from a prior relationship or marriage. The agreement may also provide for the division of assets and spousal or child support in the event that the marriage is terminated. To ensure proper execution, it is highly recommended that a prenuptial agreement be prepared by an attorney.
Spousal Support
With respect to spousal support, the court takes into account numerous factors including, the need and ability to pay, the duration of the marriage, the age of the parties, and earning capacity. Spousal support is a very unpredictable area of the law and thus generalities are of no benefit. Suffice it to say, spousal support is something that must be discussed with an attorney and the attorney must be given the opportunity to assess the facts of your case.
Legal Separation
We understand that divorce is a difficult and emotional process and we serve our clients not only as attorneys, but counselors as well, providing both legal and emotional support as we guide our clients through legal separation and divorce.

DUI/DWI
DUI/DWI charges threaten your driving and personal freedom, loss of insurance or dramatic increases in premiums, jobs or careers, and reputation. As a result, it is critical that you find a skilled attorney to defend your case.
Traffic Violations
Reckless driving, generally, occurs when any person drives a vehicle on any highway recklessly or at a speed or in a manner so as to endanger the life, limb or property of any person. There are, however, various other forms of reckless driving noted under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, including, but not limited to, excessive speed, improper passing, improper control, passing when view obstructed, passing at an intersection or railroad crossing, failing to give proper signals and driving too fast for traffic conditions.
Misdemeanors
Needless to say, being charged with a Class 1 misdemeanor is a highly stressful event. Given the high stakes, it is recommended that you retain a skilled attorney to defend your case.

Business and Corporate Law

Business Disputes
Our business practice is both transaction and advice oriented, focusing on formation, acquisitions, finance and joint ventures.
Limited Liability Companies
We provide legal and business planning advice and form partnerships, corporations, and limited liability companies for businesses and investors in a wide range of industries, especially real estate related ones.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
We look forward to assisting you with your estate plan. Please contact us to schedule an appointment with one of our attorneys. Feel free to bring a list of all of your estate planning questions and concerns.
Wills
We are a general practice law firm located in Newport News, Virginia. As a general practice firm, we have the experience and background necessary to advise clients regarding a broad range of legal matters, including business, real estate, divorce and family law, wills and trusts, civil litigation and traffic. We effectively assist our clients in courts across the Commonwealth.
Trusts
Because of the great deal of literature and discussion on the subject and the many benefits they provide, people will often consider creating a revocable living trust.
Power of Attorney
A will is written instrument by which one specifies the distribution of his or her property at death and names an executor to handle the estate upon death. A power of attorney is a document authorized by a person, called the “principal,” that grants legal authority to another person, the “agent,” to act on behalf of the principal. A power of attorney could authorize the agent to write checks, sell property, file tax returns, etc. Under a “durable” power of attorney, the principal authorizes the agent to make decision on his or her behalf in the event the principal is incapacitated. These actions of the agent may be authorized under all circumstances (a general power) or under specific circumstances (a limited power).
Probate

Foreclosure
We provide representation to individuals for incorporation, set-up, sale and transfer of small companies, and provide registered agent services. We also provide disclosure, due diligence and corporate counseling to the Boards of Directors and the senior management of our clients. We are highly skilled in the drafting of corporate and loan documents ranging from simple promissory notes and transactional security instruments to more sophisticated transactions involving real estate as collateral. We are able to provide counsel for loan work-out negotiation, foreclosures, and simple and complex litigation. Our firm's vast experience and knowledge of lender issues allows us to protect our clients and interests throughout the lending process.
