Family & Probate Law

Nothing seems to bring out the fangs like family and probate disputes, because in these practice areas the adversary is usually “family” and the dispute inevitably involves far more than what is on paper – it is an emotionally-charged practice area, with life-long fact patterns, and often life-long consequences.

Our attorneys serve clients in traditional “Family Law cases” -- usually when such cases involve business or commercial investment assets – and in the area of “Fiduciary and Elder Law” matters that could be more properly categorized as estate litigation, or probate actions, almost invariably involving valuable investment and/or real property.

HH attorneys resolve sophisticated family-related legal issues in many contexts, including Separation, Divorce, Guardianship, Trust administration, Protective Orders and Domestic Violence, Custody/Child Support, Contempt and enforcement, Modification actions, Relocation issues, along with complex will contests and probate litigation.

The broad expertise of the HH attorneys in business law matters and general civil litigation gives us an edge, and positions us to partner with our clients in resolving all manner of family disputes in a comprehensive, creative, and customized fashion while keeping costs as low as possible.

HH provides a wide range of legal services to family law and estate law clients including pre-suit evaluation and consultation, trial work and litigation (e.g., filing for divorce, child support, child custody, maintenance, responding to divorce petitions and cross-petitioning) and modification and post-trial resolution options, including mediation. Since every case is so unique, we recommend that you come in and talk to us about your options, and get focused on possibilities rather than limitations.
