Child Custody & Visitation
One of the most important - and contested - aspects of a divorce is that of child custody. The primary consideration is what is in the best interest of the child. It is important to obtain an aggressive lawyer to ensure that your rights are protected.
Child Support
Determining child support payments in New York is an important aspect of any divorce case involving children.
