Family Matters

Indiana Divorce Lawyers

Families matter to us. We understand the cause and effect that legal problems can have on a family. That is why the family law lawyers at the Indianapolis law firm of Freedman & Associates resolve legal issues with a focus on its impact on the family. We have found in our over 20 years of experience that divorce cases may be caused by … or effect …other very important issues in your life.

We strive to provide families with a range of legal services that match their needs. Because divorce can be a symptom of other legal problems, we also represent clients on bankruptcy*, criminal defense, and estate administration matters. We are adept at handling complicated divorce matters as well as straightforward, uncontested and uncomplicated ones.

When you contact the family law attorneys at Freedman & Associates, we will invite you to schedule a highly informative consultation. At that consultation, we will do our best to educate you about the divorce laws that pertain to your case, and how your case will most likely proceed. Based on the facts that you share with us, we will let you know how the judges and courts are most likely to respond. In consultation with you, we will plan a strategy that will have the best chance of bringing the outcome you want.

Guiding You Through the Divorce Process

Whether your divorce is contested or uncontested, it will take some time to discover all assets of both spouses in order to prepare a proposed property settlement. In uncontested cases, we will advise you of ways to work with your spouse to negotiate the division of your assets. In contested cases, we will begin the process of negotiating with your spouse’s attorney. If necessary, we will gather testimony of expert witnesses, appraisals, and other documents to support your arguments.

We will use the information gathered to prepare for any hearings or settlement negotiations in your case. Once there has been a final hearing or you have reached a settlement agreement, you and your spouse will receive the final decree which typically covers property division, child custody, visitation, child support and other important issues. Throughout the divorce process, we will keep you informed, stay sensitive to your feelings and stress, and offer our emotional support together with our legal expertise.

Other Family Law Matters

Aside from divorce, we also handle prenuptial / postnuptial agreements, post decree modifications / enforcement and paternity matters, as well as guardianships, adoptions, and other issues related to your children. To learn about our supportive team approach to family law issues that are facing your family, please contact our family lawyers to request a highly valuable consultation.
