We proudly serve clients across the South Shore, including Milton, Quincy, Hingham, Weymouth, Cohasset, Norwell, and surrounding communities.

Divorce can be one of the most challenging experiences a person faces. At Hera Law Group, we guide South Shore clients through every stage of the divorce process while working to protect their rights, finances, and families.
In Massachusetts, divorces may be uncontested (1A) or contested (1B). An uncontested divorce allows spouses who agree on all terms to resolve their case more efficiently through a Separation Agreement and a brief court appearance. A contested divorce involves court intervention when spouses cannot agree on key issues such as custody, support, or property division.
Most divorces in Massachusetts are no-fault, based on an “irretrievable breakdown of the marriage.” While fault-based divorces are available under limited circumstances, they are less common and require careful legal analysis.
Our South Shore divorce attorneys assist with:
Contested and uncontested divorces
Division of marital assets and liabilities
Child custody and parenting plans
Child support and alimony
Post-divorce modification and enforcement actions
Divorces involving substantial assets require advanced legal and financial insight. If your marital estate exceeds $1 million, your case may be classified as a high-asset divorce, involving business interests, real estate, investments, trusts, or retirement accounts.
Our attorneys work closely with financial professionals when necessary to ensure an accurate valuation and equitable division of assets. Protecting your financial future is a priority, particularly when complex holdings or inherited assets are involved.
Child-related matters are often the most sensitive aspect of family law cases. Hera Law Group represents South Shore parents in custody and support matters with a strong focus on the best interests of the child, while also protecting parental rights.
We handle:
Legal and physical custody disputes
Parenting time and visitation schedules
Child support determinations and enforcement
Paternity actions
Modification actions due to changed circumstances
When a Guardian ad Litem is appointed, our attorneys guide parents through the investigation process and ensure their rights are protected at every stage.
Litigation is not always the best solution. For many families, mediation or collaborative divorce provides a more respectful, cost-effective, and child-focused alternative.
Through mediation, parties work together—often without attorneys present—to resolve disputes amicably. Collaborative divorce allows both spouses to retain counsel while committing to resolving issues outside the courtroom. These approaches can preserve relationships, reduce conflict, and allow families to maintain control over important decisions.
Hera Law Group advises South Shore clients on whether mediation or collaborative law is appropriate and represents clients throughout these processes when chosen.
Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements are powerful tools for protecting assets, clarifying expectations, and reducing future conflict. Whether you are planning to marry or already married, our attorneys assist South Shore clients in drafting, reviewing, and negotiating enforceable agreements.
Common reasons clients pursue prenups and postnups include:
Protecting premarital assets and inheritances
Addressing future alimony
Allocating marital and separate property
Managing debt responsibilities
Preserving estate planning intentions
Proper timing and independent legal counsel are essential to enforceability. Our attorneys ensure agreements comply with Massachusetts law and are structured to withstand future scrutiny.
Family law often intersects with estate planning and elder law. Hera Law Group helps South Shore families plan proactively and navigate probate matters with clarity and care.
Our estate and probate services include:
Wills and trusts
Powers of attorney and health care proxies
HIPAA authorizations
Probate administration
Guardianships and conservatorships
We also assist families facing elder law issues, including long-term care planning and decision-making for aging loved ones.
International divorce and custody cases introduce additional legal and logistical challenges, including jurisdictional issues and cross-border enforcement. Our attorneys have experience handling international family law matters and guiding clients through complex, multi-jurisdictional cases with diligence and discretion.
