When children are involved, custody and support decisions must prioritize their best interests. We help parents pursue custody and placement arrangements that reflect their family’s needs while advocating for appropriate child support agreements. Our firm also assists with modifications when circumstances change, ensuring existing orders remain fair and enforceable.

Paternity and Parental Rights Advocacy

Establishing or disputing paternity has significant legal implications for both parents and children. We represent clients in paternity actions to clarify parental rights and responsibilities, including custody, placement, and child support. Our goal is to help clients secure outcomes that protect their relationship with their children while complying with Wisconsin law.

We work diligently to ensure the process moves forward efficiently and in the child’s best interests.
