Divorce Legal Services

He helps a client evaluate settlement options and prepare for court when necessary. Neutral mediation is a separate service in which Brett does not represent either participant.

Brett assists with voluntary and contested parentage matters and related custody and support questions. Contact the firm to discuss the issues involved in your situation.
