Divorce and Family Law
Divorce Attorney
Divorce and family law are diverse practice areas. Both fields require extreme diligence and a sense of compassion that allows the attorney the ability to put things in perspective so things may be viewed from both sides of the table.
As a Chelan County attorney, Scott’s main practice areas are divorce and family law. He handles cases that fall on a wide spectrum of issues ranging from divorce and legal separation, same-sex dissolutions, paternity and guardianship cases involving children, the elderly and individuals with special needs. Unlike criminal law, family law involves what is best for everyone. If children and their custody are involved, applying the best interests test will likely control the outcome of any such case.
Wenatchee Family Law Attorney
A Wenatchee divorce attorney that practices family law can handle any situation that may arise during a divorce proceeding. Scott’s experience in family law is especially beneficial when small children are involved as both practice and life experience provide him with the tools to handle the situation tactfully, while respecting the parents and protecting the children’s best interest.
Child support, custody and visitation cases are common in family court. While these go hand in hand with divorce proceedings, they sometimes are presented outside of a marital situation. They can also involve guardianship, paternity and adoption. Family law is a unique practice area with many individual elements that must be able to be adequately addressed.
Divorces and other family law issues can be simple and easy or profoundly complicated and require a skilled negotiator.
“I was witness to his high level of integrity and tenacity during my trial and was moved to tears by his closing statements because of how aptly he conveyed to the judge what was of highest importance to me in regards to outcome.”
— Heather, a Divorce Client
