Family Lawyer Services
Separation and Divorce Law
When your marriage is over, it shouldn’t feel like your life is too. Having an expert divorce lawyer and legal counsel can be imperative to being able to move on with your life. In or out of court, Elinor’s team will advise you about your legal rights and help you navigate complex and difficult divorce proceedings to reach the best resolution possible.
Child Custody and Support
A child custody dispute can be the most painful part of a separation, for both you and your children. As a family law lawyer, Elinor will focus on the best interests of you and your children, striving to reach a fair custody agreement and appropriate level of child support.
Spousal Support
An important aspect that often affects separating and divorcing couples is the need for one party to claim spousal support. The impact of a divorce or separation on your financial security can be a complex and emotionally draining experience. As a family lawyer, Elinor will help guide you through that difficult process while fully protecting your financial interests.
Collaborative Family Lawyer
Most often the best way to reach a settlement is to keep your divorce out of court and commit to negotiating privately. Collaborative practice is an excellent process where both parties and their collaboratively trained family lawyers work together as a team to resolve the financial and personal issues that come up in a divorce. Collaborative practice uses a unique problem-solving approach, allowing Elinor to help guide you through the difficulties of your separation to achieve a conclusion that is fair, respectful, and mutually beneficial to all parties.
Personal Injury Law
Rebuilding your life after a traumatic injury is no small task. Not only can it be physically and emotionally exhausting, it can also exhaust your finances. Elinor’s focus is to get you the settlement you deserve, so you can focus on obtaining treatment that you need to recover, return to work, and be compensated for your pain and suffering.
Wills and Powers of Attorney
Elinor Shinehoft will help you prepare your Will and Powers of Attorney, so that you can plan to distribute your assets as you wish for your loved ones; and allow for your assets and personal care to be taken care of during your lifetime if the need arises.
