The collective knowledge, experience and skill sets of our team allow us to identify the right solutions for each. We routinely guide clients through complex and high-stakes divorce. Our highly capable lawyers know how to conduct discovery, uncover income and identify assets. The majority of our clients have challenging cases due to substantial income, family and business assets at risk or because alimony, child support and custody are being contested. While we always seek to settle cases, we are seasoned litigators with significant trial experience. When negotiation efforts reach an impasse and litigation is necessary, we advocate aggressively on behalf of our clients and never lose sight of their overall goals.
The firm's involvement in family law has included: written publications including treatises used by other practitioners and the courts themselves; speaking at and participating in local, national, and international legal seminars and educational events; and precedent-setting litigation in the courtroom. The Wendt v. Wendt case, litigated by the firm in 1997, essentially redefined how the legal community and the greater population across the nation view marital financial arrangements. Courts now look at the true complexities of family life, which for upscale families can include a detailed look at your finances, the efforts that both men and women contribute to the family constellation and child custody issues. The courts make inquiry into the true nature and value of parental roles, assets, and income.
Whether you believe a spouse is hiding assets or income, or you believe you have significantly contributed to the income and assets of the family or career of your spouse, or your family is involved in a custody or relocation case, you will need highly experienced and understanding counsel to assist you during this trying time.
Rutkin, Oldham & Griffin, L.L.C., brings you the knowledge, focus, and legal skills needed to handle the complexities of high assets/income or parenting issues. Whether your case requires highly experienced trial attorneys or skilled settlement negotiators, or simply compassion and patience in difficult times.
