Overview

Family legal matters are like no other, because the personal impact is so significant. It can be difficult to navigate the maze of legal and financial issues when emotions are so raw.

That is when it pays to have someone with knowledge and experience to guide you – rationally and thoughtfully – through the legal process and the options available to you.

At Cleaves Family Law, we educate and guide you through a legal process you have likely never experienced before. We work hard to understand your individual needs, then work together with you to develop a plan of action that helps meet your goals.

We help you and your family transition to the next chapter of your lives.
