What Types of Family Law Cases Do We Handle in Queens County?

Whether you're fighting for custody of your child, seeking a fair spousal or child support settlement, working through a divorce, or need help obtaining an order of protection, our experienced attorney can guide you every step of the way.

We represent clients throughout New York City in a range of family legal cases, including:

Will My Family Law Case End Up in Court?

Not all family legal disputes need to be settled in the courtroom. Many divorces are settled without going before a judge. Although the court will ultimately need to approve a divorce, it is possible to avoid a trial by agreeing on how to handle all divorce-related processes with your spouse.

Once you and your partner agree on matters pertaining to custody, child support, alimony, and property division, a divorce decree will need to be approved and signed by a judge before the divorce becomes final. However, a trial may be necessary to obtain a fair outcome.

At Markfeld Law, our attorney is trial-ready and committed to aggressive representation in the courtroom when necessary. We care about the issues you are facing and are passionate about getting you the results you need for a brighter future.

Can I Represent Myself in a Family Law Case?

There is no legal requirement to hire an attorney to resolve your divorce or other family legal matter. However, since the laws that govern these issues are complex, it is highly recommended that you work with an experienced lawyer, even if the other party chooses not to.

The outcome of a divorce, child custody dispute, or other type of case can have a substantial impact on your future. Without an in-depth understanding of the law and the steps that you should take to protect your interests, you could risk losing everything.
