Practice Areas Description

Volman Law provides legal services in the following areas of practice:

- Family Law

Family law is the term applied to the laws and rules developed regarding family relationships. Family law rules define 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. 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.

* Child Support

There are millions of divorced parents who pay or receive child support. Federal legislation and uniform state laws exist to make enforcement and collection of child support easier for America's single parents. 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.

* Divorce

Deciding 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. A family law attorney at our firm can help you to understand the basic issues involved in divorce and to use a rational approach to the divorce process.

* Custody and Visitation

When parents divorce, it is important to learn about the child custody and visitation options that are 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 family law attorney can often make the difference.

* Marriage

Marriage is a voluntary, private contract between two adults. While it is a personal and emotional commitment, it is also a legal relationship that changes the legal status of both parties. A family law attorney at our firm can help you to understand the legal technicalities of marriage.

- Bankruptcy and Foreclosure Prevention

Many Connecticut families are experiencing increased financial stress, heavy debt, and the threat of home loss to foreclosure. At Volman Law we help families get a fresh start with Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 personal bankruptcy. Our bankruptcy attorneys can advise you on strategies to stop foreclosure as well as advise you on how a short sale of your home may prevent both bankruptcy and foreclosure.

- Real Estate

The Fairfield County real estate attorneys at Volman Law assist buyers and sellers with the paperwork, title search, title insurance, financing, and closing services they need for the purchase of a home or lot or purchase or building of a commercial property. We’re a family-friendly law firm and we welcome the opportunity to work with your family at this exciting time in your life.

* Residential Real Estate

Whether you are buying a storefront property, beginning a large-scale development, or purchasing land for a housing subdivision, the Connecticut commercial real estate lawyers at Volman Law can provide cost-effective and efficient legal services to help your closing go smoothly.

* Reverse Mortgages

With the downturn in the economy and ever-increasing healthcare costs, increasing numbers of people near or after retirement age are experiencing financial challenges. With limited funds and limited earning potential, they are looking for assets that they can tap, to help pay the bills. If you have financial challenges and have built considerable equity in your home, consider whether a reverse mortgage can help you: You can tap the equity in your home to pay off debt and back taxes that might otherwise force you to declare bankruptcy; Rather than making a mortgage payment, you can receive money from the bank on a monthly basis; If you are having a hard time making your monthly payments, a reverse mortgage may prevent foreclosure.

- Purchase of a Business or Business Property

The Shelton, Connecticut, business lawyers at Volman Law work with new business owners to facilitate the purchase of commercial property and the purchase and sale of business enterprises. Purchasing a business—especially if it’s your first business—is both an exciting and a risky venture. Don’t let yourself be surprised after the fact when all the details of your business purchase become clear. Work with a knowledgeable and experienced Connecticut business attorney to gain a clear understanding of the financial footing of the business you intend to purchase, to ensure that all licenses are secured, and be certain that the business purchase agreement protects each party’s interests.

- Personal Injury

If you’ve been injured in an accident caused by the negligence or reckless actions of another—an individual or a business—you may be able to get financial compensation for your injuries by bringing a Connecticut car accident lawsuit or personal injury case. At Volman Law, our Connecticut car accident lawsuit attorneys have helped hundreds of people sue for serious injuries, loss of wages, and mounting medical bills because of injuries they received in an accident.

At Volman Law, our Connecticut lawyers understand how deeply our clients are affected by the sudden loss of a loved one in an accidental death. We provide caring and compassionate legal representation to help families receive the compensation they need to move through the most difficult time of their life. If you have lost a loved one in an accident caused by another, you have a right to compensation for your loss. It is our job at Volman Law to prove the extent of your loss so that you receive just compensation. Whether your loved one was a breadwinner, a family caretaker, or a beloved child, they were vitally important to your family’s well-being and their loss is significant. We will work diligently to investigate the causes of the accident and to explain to a judge and jury the extent of your loss.

- Criminal Defense

When possible, we work to get charges dismissed or reduced so the young person stays out of the criminal justice system. If a sentence seems unavoidable, we negotiate for an alternative sentence that provides an opportunity for the young person to get the help he or she needs to make better choices in the future. That can include drug or alcohol treatment, community service, or anger management counseling.
