Fulton County Families and Individuals Trust Our Full-Service Approach
Whether you're facing a divorce, a criminal charge, mounting debt, or the need to get your estate in order, you shouldn't have to hunt down a different attorney for each problem. We handle the legal matters that come up most often in people's lives — all under one roof, with a team that stays consistent with you throughout your case.
Our office is located in Sylvania at 8527 Central Ave, easily accessible from Wauseon, Delta, Archbold, and communities across Fulton County. We offer free initial consultations and evening and weekend appointments by arrangement.
Practice Areas
Louisiana work injury claims & denials
Divorce, dissolution of marriage, child custody, child support, spousal support, and juvenile matters — handled by attorneys who know Lucas County Court of Common Pleas and Sylvania Municipal Court inside and out.
Family Law
Divorce, dissolution, child custody, child support, spousal support, and juvenile matters. We handle these cases with the seriousness they deserve — and with an eye toward outcomes that hold up long after the paperwork is signed.
Criminal Defense
Charged with an OVI, drug offense, domestic violence, felony, or misdemeanor? The decisions you make in the first days after an arrest matter. We help Fulton County residents understand their options and build a defense from the start.
Bankruptcy
If debt has become unmanageable — whether through job loss, medical bills, or other hardship — Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy may offer a real path forward. We also help clients stop wage garnishment and protect what they've built.
Estate Planning
Wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and probate representation. Planning ahead protects your family and removes uncertainty from a difficult time. We make the process straightforward.
