Family Law

What Is Family Law?

Family law is a branch of law that deals with matters surrounding family members or partnerships, such as divorce or child custody. Adoption, emancipation, foster care, fertility issues, and many more are all included. For the most part, state statutes prescribe the policies and practices, and family law attorneys assist clients with navigating these sometimes complicated problems. When life takes an abrupt turn and family problems surface, you can find yourself in the midst of a divorce, a custody battle, or another difficult personal circumstance. These are likely to be the most stressful days of your life, which is why the attorneys at Doggett Law are here to assist you. At all stages of private and domestic action, our family law lawyers advise people. We’ll help you when your interests—and those of your children—are at stake.
