Divorce & Family Law

The Cummings, McClorey, Davis & Acho Family Law Group works closely with individual clients who are going through a difficult period in their lives. CMDA is adept at representing individuals traversing the many sensitive issues that arise with this discipline. Given the importance of the issues at stake, our attorneys are extremely aggressive to achieve the best possible outcome for our clients. 

Family law defines not only the relationships between members of a family but also between a family and society as a whole. More than any other area of the law, family law reflects the values society shares regarding how people who are related should treat each other, privately and publicly. When you are faced with an important life decision regarding a key family relationship, the advice and assistance of a family law attorney often proves crucial to your understanding of the issues involved and your satisfaction with the ultimate outcome of your family law matter.

Typically, family law attorneys assist people in making and breaking family relationships. Specific areas of representation include marriage and relationship planning, divorce, paternity, child custody, and child support. Some family law attorneys also provide assistance in the area of adoption.

CMDA is active in negotiating and litigating a number of family legal issues including:

  • Divorce
  • Pre-marital Agreements
  • Property Division
  • Child Support
  • Custody


Divorce

Making the decision to pursue divorce is one of the most difficult and emotional decisions you will ever make, particularly if you have children. Divorce also involves financial matters that must be resolved and legal issues that must be addressed. Our family law attorneys can help you understand the basic issues involved in divorce and to use a rational and if needed, an aggressive approach to the divorce process.

Child Support

Federal legislation and uniform state laws exist to make enforcement and collection of child support easier for America's single parents. But because every state uses its own guidelines for establishing child support and each has various methods to set support amounts and recover support when it is overdue, it is often important to consult with a family law attorney who is familiar with the child support guidelines and child support enforcement laws in your state. CMDA can help you clarify and litigate your personal situation or the process of establishing  paternity.

Custody and Visitation

In divorce, you need an experienced legal counselor to help you know the array of child custody and visitation options available and the legal standards that apply. In many cases, divorcing couples can ultimately agree on custody and visitation issues without the need for a court order. When an agreement cannot be reached, knowledgeable advice and representation from a CMDA family law attorney can often make the difference.
