Unlike other areas of law, family law attorneys deal almost exclusively with people's personal lives. At Cohen and Lombardo, P.C. we have a large and experienced group of family law attorneys who pride themselves on handling each case with compassion and focused individual attention so that the results, whether in the courtroom or at the negotiating table, are satisfactory.

Our attorneys negotiate and draft prenuptial, post-marital, and separation agreements tailored to each individual client based upon the specific circumstances and expressed wishes of the client. In addition, we counsel clients in the legal points of equitable distribution of property, spousal maintenance, child support, custody, visitation and relocation rights, cohabitation, and civil unions.

Though our goal is to negotiate expedient and fair settlements, Cohen and Lombardo has several world-class litigators who combine both sensitivity and tenacity in the courtroom to achieve the best results possible, either in Family Court or the State Supreme Court.

As an alternative to a courtroom solution, we have experienced mediators and arbitrators and represent clients in both types of alternative dispute resolution as well as in the collaborative law process. Through alternative dispute resolution, many couples are able to attain an amicable divorce outside of the courtroom.

In addition to our matrimonial practice in Supreme Court, we have vast experience in representing clients in Family Court in matters such as awards or changes in custody, child support, access and visitation, spousal maintenance (alimony), PINS, and paternity. We also handle both agency and private adoptions.
