Areas of Law

Areas of Law Description

Our practice areas include, but not limited to the following:

- Child Custody

Our family law attorneys understand the complications and pains involved in child disputes. The decision of child custody carries emotional and legal significance because a child's future and happiness may depend on it. Child custody proceedings are to take place in child’s home state, unless an emergency exists involving a child temporary in the state. Florida child custody laws provide factors to be considered in determining child custody issues. Our lawyers will help you to deal with the legal uncertainty and emotional stress by trying to resolve the issue in your child’s best interest.

- Divorce

Divorce is often called marriage separation or legal dissolution of marriage. The laws of divorce vary from country to country and state to state. A divorce can take place only when husband and wife mutually decide not to live with each other. It is important to consult a divorce lawyer when thinking of divorce as there are many legal issues involved in divorce and its settlement. A divorce or legal separation petitioner needs to be sure that his/her legal rights are protected throughout the process of divorce. It is important to understand the difference between contested and uncontested divorce.

- Child Visitation

Visitation or Timesharing refers to the time during which each parent is allotted to care for and spend time with their child. In Florida, courts encourage parents to resolve these issues by agreement, but are prepared to enter orders establishing visitation or timesharing that will serve the child’s best interests. While visitation or timesharing rights generally most affect the non-custodial parents who do not have physical custody of the child, both parents should understand their rights and responsibilities. Our experienced lawyers may help you understand the proceedings and your rights involved in visitation or timesharing related issues.

- Legal Separation

Our family law attorneys will spend the time necessary to analyze the specifics of your case and suggest appropriate separation options. Alan Jay Braverman and Michael A. Hymowitz are both Florida Bar Board Certified in Marital and Family Law.

- Alimony

Alimony is also known as spousal support that is an important aspect in divorce settlement. Florida laws give right to both the spouses to appeal for alimony. The court’s decision is based on the needs of the contestants and the ability of the partner to pay the requested support. There are three types of alimony support- temporary, rehabilitative and permanent. Our lawyers can help you resolve your alimony case.

- Domestic Violence

Domestic violence may include any forms of violence between spouses, former spouses and even certain non-married couples or cohabitants such as physical assault or battery, sexual abuse, as well as psychological and emotional abuse that can result from stalking. Often, psychological, emotional and even financial abuse can lead to criminal acts including physical domestic violence. Our lawyers represent men and women charged with domestic violence and victim of domestic violence. We also represent the victims of domestic violence who often have rights in both the criminal court and in civil courts (such as a lawsuit for money damages).
