Family and Divorce Law

Such issues can be quite complicated and cause stress.

Mediation and Collaborative Law
Not every divorce needs to be hostile. A collaborative divorce process removes the threat of litigation so that separating couples can work together to avoid future recriminations by focusing on a settlement that balances the needs of each member of the family. There are so many advantages to this process. Not only is it better for your budget, but with a lawyer trained in mediation techniques and the legal intricacies of the collaborative process, finding amicable solutions becomes an achievable goal.

Estate Planning and Probate
No one wants to think about death and dying. Unfortunately, this means that over half of all Americans don’t leave a will when they pass. This can create huge burdens for those they leave behind. Don’t do this to those you love. While it is tempting to delay your estate planning, consider the consequences. Instead of waiting until it’s too late, allow our attorneys to guide you through the process. Based in Maynard, our law firm understands the particulars of local probate and estate law. We’ll help you craft all the documents you’ll need so that you and your heirs can have peace of mind.

Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements
Just the term “prenup” can cause a negative reaction. However, a well-crafted prenuptial agreement protects both parties and can contribute to the health of a marriage by eliminating potential sources of conflict. It gives each person a chance to discuss expectations up front, thus facilitating better communication between partners. While a good prenuptial agreement will make a potential separation easier, it also makes it less likely.

Elder Law
As people continue to live longer, situations where an elderly person needs help to handle his or her affairs grow more common. Whether an elderly parent or relative needs assistance with finances, medical concerns, or personal affairs, the right legal measures can protect and care for a loved one who needs help. Parents of developmentally disabled children may also want to consider seeking legal counsel for advice on how to protect them medically, personally, and financially as they grow into adulthood.
