Experienced Family Law Attorney Handling Your Case With Personalized Care And Compassion
Family law matters can be complex in Ithaca, New York. They often involve emotional issues that can cause confusion, making it essential to understand your rights amid family and life changes. Many wonder how to protect family heirlooms or other important marital assets or how to divide physical and legal custody of their children. It is imperative to know about all available options for your family law needs.
That’s where I can help at Kelly A. Damm Attorney at Law. I am Kelly A. Damm, and I have over 20 years of experience as an Ithaca family law attorney. I offer compassionate and thorough guidance every step of the way. As a lawyer, I know that legal family issues can be daunting and complicated, but you can trust me to put your best interests first and seek solutions for your unique situation.
The Cases We Handle
I can take on many different types of family law cases, including the following:
- Divorce matters
- Child support and paternity
- Child custody and visitation
- Adoption services
- Child abuse and neglect
- Domestic violence
- Criminal defense
Many family cases involve multiple areas of the law. A divorce case may start with the termination of a marriage, but parents may also want to address custody and visitation rights, along with child support or paternity concerns. In some situations, issues like adoption can be part of a divorce case, as the child may not be biologically related to either parent, but both parents want to protect their relationship with the child and their parental rights.
Other times, issues like domestic violence may be involved, necessitating the use of emergency protective orders. Child abuse, child neglect and criminal records can also play a role, especially when it comes to custody rights. It is important to remember; a parent who cannot get primary custody may still be able to get visitation or supervised visitation rights. With my experience, I can handle these cases and address all of the important details.
