Beyond the considerable emotional pain, the end of a marriage is legally complex. If your marriage is ending, contact our office to discuss your rights. You will need professional advice to determine child custody, financial support, and to make a fair division of the property of the marital community.
Attorney Michael R. Hirman’s areas of concentration within family and domestic law include:

Whether you choose divorce, legal separation, or annulment, we can advise you about your rights to custody, visitation, support, and property. Attorney Michael R. Hirman can also prepare a separation agreement, assure that timely steps are taken to end your marriage, and advise you when unexpected problems arise. Our office can also seek protection if your spouse threatens to assault or harass you, take your children in violation of custody or visitation rights, or hide property belonging to the marital community.
Divorce has important tax consequences. Custody can affect your taxes, including your right to claim head of household status, dependent exemptions, child-care credit. Support payments might be taxable or deductible. Property division can affect your taxes.  We can advise you about the tax aspects of divorce.
