The law relating to family disputes and obligations has grown dramatically since the 1970s, as legislators and judges have reexamined and redefined legal relationships  surrounding Divorce, Child Custody, and Child Support and subsequent modifications that may be needed. Family law has become entwined with national debates over the structure of the family, gender bias, and morality. Despite many changes made by state and federal legislators, family law remains a contentious area of Maine law, generating strong emotions from those who have had to enter the legal process.  Give me a call to discuss your options regarding protecting your interests as you move forward.
