Child Custody and Paternity Suits

Whether it's a custody dispute in a divorce case or a child born out of wedlock, a custody fight over children can be one of the heart-wrenching experiences of your life. Too often, parents get so wrapped up in *winning* that they forget how they are affecting their children. Wade L. Griffin, Jr. takes pride in keeping his clients focused on the well-being of their children and taking steps to insulate children from the fight going on in the courtroom.

Paternity Suits

Whether it's a parent wanting to establish someone as a parent, or the other parent trying to establish you as a parent. The Griffin Firm is here to help. Recent changes in the law have completely altered how a person can be established as a parent. Certain time limitations can prevent a person from establishing someone as the father of a child. The right to a DNA test has been restricted in certain situations. It has never been more important to have an attorney who can advise you on the current laws regarding establishing someone as a parent or denying that someone is a parent. Wade L. Griffin, Jr. has the experience and stays up to date with all changes in family law. Before you head off to court in a paternity action by yourself, contact The Griffin Firm. Don't get down the road years from now and realize you made a mistake. 

Custody

Fighting over custody, in a divorce case or otherwise, can be the most difficult thing for a parent, but is nothing compared to what the child is going through. Whether it's fighting for primary custody or trying to maximize your visitation time with your children, you need to consult with our firm. Recent changes in the law have seen greater rights in visitation, and more focus on what is truly in the best interest of the child. The old one-size-fits-all standard visitation schedule is being used less and less. Customized visitation schedules, which work better for the parents and the children, are becoming the new standard. We at The Griffin Firm are dedicated to serving your needs and the needs of your children.
