Estates and Family Law

Two of our firm’s growing practice areas are Estates and Family Law. We counsel and represent clients on many issues that arise in this area.

We successfully represent clients in adoptions, guardianships, wills, probate estate litigation, powers of attorney and other advance directives, uncontested divorces and post-decree divorce matters.

Cases in these practice areas are handled primarily by Steven P. Rouse, member, and Janice L. Triptow, associate.

In addition to providing our legal expertise on these issues, we recognize the emotions and passions that often are involved in these cases and counsel our clients with those issues in mind.

Should you have a question or concern on a family or estate issue, we would be pleased to assist you.
