Questions Our Divorce Attorneys and Child Custody Attorneys in Indiana Help You Resolve

It’s an emotional time, and the decisions you have to make can feel overwhelming.

FVG divorce and child custody attorneys guide you through this with understanding and a sharp focus on protecting your rights.

In a divorce, we help with:

Uncontested divorces: when you’re able to agree with your former spouse
Contested divorces: when you and your spouse disagree
How to divide property, including possessions, real estate, retirement accounts, business interests and more

Child custody

In making child custody arrangements, an Indiana child custody attorney from FVG protects your parental rights and fights for what’s best for your child, including:

Navigating sole vs. joint custody
Understanding “physical custody,” in which a child lives with one parent, and the other parent may get visitation
Establishing “legal custody,” which determines who makes important decisions about your child’s life
Working through parenting time schedules
Guiding you as years pass and circumstances change for your child, your ex-spouse and yourself, which can prompt changes in custody arrangements
