When domestic issues cannot be settled amicably within the family’s home, TMSC Law is here to help resolve disputes fairly. Our family court lawyers in Indiana offer representation and assistance in the following areas:

Divorce and Legal Separation

Divorce, especially for high net worth couples, is often complicated, heavily contested, and emotionally charged. We will help you get through the legal proceedings as peacefully as possible. Our lawyers will also negotiate the property division to ensure that the settlement is fair for both parties.

Adoption

Although the adoption process is rarely adversarial, it still involves plenty of legal complexities. TMSC Law assists with different types of adoptions. We will prepare the paperwork, represent you at hearings, and explain adoption issues and the rights and responsibilities of adoptive parents.

Child Custody and Visitation

Indiana recognizes two types of child custody: legal and physical. Physical custody refers to the child’s permanent residence and the day-to-day care he or she receives. Legal custody, on the other hand, refers the parent’s right to participate in making decisions about important aspects of the child’s life, such as education, health, and religious and cultural upbringing.

In the state, parents who don’t have physical custody of the child are still entitled to reasonable parenting time, unless the court decides otherwise. Our family law attorneys will work with you to resolve custody and visitation issues that uphold the best interests of your children.

Child Support

Whether you pay or receive child support, TMSC Law will assist you through the process of negotiating, modifying, contesting, and enforcing the settlement agreement. We also help clients with cases of unpaid child support, allowing you to collect the back payments.

Alimony or Spousal Support

It’s common for one spouse to be the breadwinner of the family, while the other spouse is the homemaker. In such situations, we make sure that the latter spouse receives the financial support they need to sustain a living. Our family court lawyers will assist you in modifying, negotiating, enforcing, or terminating a spousal support order.

Domestic Violence

Many domestic violence cases coincide with criminal laws. Our experience as general practice attorneys allows us to navigate your case thoroughly, making sure that the victim receives the protective order they need.
