At Krigel Nugent + Moore, P.C., our family lawyers are driven to solve cases rather than create unnecessary contention. We take the title “counselor” seriously and consider all aspects of our client’s lives and their goals. Our goal is to get the best results without going to court. But if it comes to that, we enjoy actively litigating in the courtroom when necessary.
Our team of family law attorneys provide deep expertise in many types of cases, including:
Divorce
This includes contested and uncontested cases, high net-worth divorces, and same-sex cases.
Child custody and visitation
We advocate on your behalf to protect your parental rights and relationship with your child(ren).

This may include temporary or permanent support awards determined by the laws and guidelines of your specific county and state.
Property division
We will use all resources available to us in seeking a fair and just property settlement.

Mediation
This alternative dispute resolution method can save you the time, stress, and expense of litigation, as well as leave you in control of the outcome of your case.
