Biography

You should consider speaking with a divorce lawyer before becoming involved in any family law case. The common issues that are handled by a divorce lawyer include divorce, child support, relocation, time sharing (visitation) and alimony. You will have a much easier time as these issues are resolved and you will tend to get more positive results by hiring a divorce lawyer. Unlike some other firms, when you hire Mr. Mullaney as your divorce lawyer, you get him as your attorney - not an associate with far less experience. The broader category of Family Law encompasses a wide range of cases and issues, including uncontested divorce, contested divorce, paternity and adoption cases. The issues raised in Florida Family Law cases include: property division, debt division, child support, time sharing (formerly called visitation), child relocation, and alimony. Mr. Mullaney also represent clients in the modification of prior court orders, including those entered in other states. There is no doubt that involvement in any family law dispute can cause a great deal of stress in your life. Since Mr. Mullaney has exclusively practiced as a Florida Family Law attorney in North and Central Florida for over 17 years, he is aware of the emotional toll that these cases can take on clients. With that in mind, his goal is to help clients complete a smooth transition to the next stage of their lives. In addition to being a Florida Family Law attorney, Mr. Mullaney is also a Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Court Mediator. As a result of his mediation training and experience as a divorce lawyer, he can help the parties (husband and wife, or mother and father) resolve their Florida Family Law dispute through mediation without resorting to litigation.

11 Questions Answered
Q. Hello, So here is my question. I am going on 15 months of a supplemental petition for modification.
A: You should try to subpoena the records you are looking for from her bank or employer. Since she is still refusing to produce the mandatory documents, you should ask that she be incarcerated until she provides the documents (since she is in contempt for not producing the documents).
Q. how much would it cost to get help with doing a minor child last name change?
A: The cost of the case would depend on whether both parents agree on the name change. If there is no agreement, there is no way to know the full cost of that litigation since there is no way to know how much time needs to be spent on the case.
Q. How do i go about finding out if someone is pregnant with my child?
A: That's a bad situation. The only thing I could think of is to start a paternity case anyway and request that she produce her medical records that proves she had a miscarriage. That seems a little extreme, but most mothers do not deny having a child. If she does have a child, you can ask the judge to order her and the child to submit to a DNA test to prove whether the child is your or not. If she did have a miscarriage, then you can dismiss the case.
