Expert Family Law Representation: Divorce, Custody & Support Solutions
At Hecht & Associates, we bring decades of experience to every family law case, ensuring our clients receive top-tier legal advocacy. Family law encompasses a wide range of issues, including divorce, child custody disputes, alimony, child support, enforcement of marital settlement agreements, prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, guardianships, domestic violence protective orders, third-party custody, and modifications to custody and support orders. Each case is unique, often involving overlapping legal principles that require a deep understanding of Maryland and Washington, D.C., family law.
Navigating Complex Family Law Cases with Expertise
Every family law case presents multiple layers of complexity. A divorce may involve child custody arrangements, asset division, spousal support, property disputes, business valuations, and retirement benefits. Custody matters can include guardian ad litem involvement, mental health evaluations, relocation disputes, and claims of parental alienation or neglect. Child support cases require detailed financial analysis, including income verification and an understanding of the Maryland Child Support Guidelines. Whether the case is low-conflict or high-conflict, our goal is to achieve fair, sustainable solutions for our clients.
