Top best Child Custody Lawyers in Worcester near me | 15 available

I believe that marriage/relationships should end with the same dignity and respect that it started with. My goal for my practice is to help improve the divorce process for couples seeking to end their marriage in a manner that shall preserve their families and reduce conflict for their children. Although the romantic partnership has ended, parents need to be able to co-exist in order to raise healthy children who can manage conflict in a peaceful and productive manner. I believe the divorce mediation process is the least detrimental for families seeking to end their marriage. A public courtroom battle is not the appropriate forum to resolve your issues relating to custody, parenting times, property division and support. A confidential and private divorce/family mediation with a highly skilled divorce mediator will help expedite your divorce, while leaving a couple in control over financial and parenting decisions for their family in a cost effective manner.

I am an associate attorney at Schwartz & Plante.. I received my B.A. from Boston University in 2007, and her J.D. from Western New England College School of Law in 2010. While in law school, I served on the executive board of the Family Law Association as the Treasurer and Community Outreach Coordinator and served as a student member of the Faculty-Student Admissions Committee.. Prior to and upon admission to the bar in 2011, I gained first-hand experience in the area of domestic relations and family law, by working first as a paralegal and subsequently as an associate attorney at the Law Office of Russell P. Schwartz. Thereafter, I advanced my litigation skills by working in the areas of personal injury law, labor relations, family law and civil litigation while working as an associate attorney in a local civil litigation practice in Worcester, Massachusetts. I participated in contested motion hearings as well as in multi-day trials in the Massachusetts District, Probate and Family, and Superior Courts. Additionally, I represented clients in contested arbitrations and mediations. She was admitted to the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts in April 2018.. In January 2019, I returned to Schwartz & Plante (formerly the Law Office of Russell P. Schwartz) as an Associate Attorney where I practice in all areas of Domestic Relations, including, but not limited to divorce, child custody, modifications and contempt matters.

As a family law attorney for more than 30 years, I am intensely aware of the complex and often deeply painful, personal struggles that arise when family members are immersed in legal conflicts. My goal is to enable you to resolve conflicts respectfully, within a safe space that provides all parties an opportunity to be heard.. For all of my clients, I am committed to providing expert, ethical, compassionate legal counsel. While I am a staunch advocate for my clients where litigation is the only option, I prefer helping you to reach a fair and equitable settlement through mediation or collaborative law.. The key to these two forms of respectful conflict resolution is your willingness to come to the table, together, to negotiate a mutually acceptable outcome. Particularly when a marriage is unraveling, the mediation process enables you to disengage from negative and destructive communication and to recreate your relationship in a way that allows you to continue separately as respectful co-parents, or, if there are no children, to let go of your marriage and move forward with dignity.. I work with a wide range of family clients — from couples who are divorcing to grandparents and adult children in conflict over grandparent visitation rights, from parents locked in custody disputes to families arguing over decisions about an aging parent’s care and finances. I also help employers and employees to disentangle from workplace conflicts and build more effective business relationships.. I am committed to helping my clients achieve a fair and reasonable agreement. I believe that peacemaking, rather than waging war, is better for your family, better for your soul, and better for your future.. In addition to my role as the sole proprietor of Solutions Through Mediation Marcia E. Tannenbaum, Esq., I have volunteered for many years as Lawyer for the Day in the Probate and Family Court of Worcester, and now participate in the ARC (Attorneys Representing Children) Program providing Court appointed pro bono representation for children in contentious custody cases.. I also teach in WISE (the Worcester Institute for Senior Education) which is a program of Assumption University. My love of literature and travel was combined in the summer of 2018 when I traveled with a group of my Can Lit (Canadian Literature) students to Toronto, Ottawa, Quebec City and Montreal. I am hoping to return to Ottawa next spring to see the Tulip Festival when the entire landscape of the city is covered with glorious tulips.
