Protecting What Matters Most

Individuals may deal with custody issues during a divorce, after a divorce, or as part of a relationship that may not have included marriage. Attorney Chatterton has the experience and know-how to handle and counsel families through any family disputes that involve the custody of children. We know that nothing is as important to you as your children, and we will treat your case with the utmost sensitivity and respect in all custody matters.

Many couples do not realize that a different set of laws apply to custody of children whose parents are not married. It is in the best interests of your children for you to legally establish custody and paternity of your children, particularly for unmarried fathers, simply because paternity is not automatically established if you are not married.

“Consulting with us allows you to protect your parental rights while prioritizing your child’s best interests.”

Attorney Chatterton provides experienced and compassionate legal representation. He is an aggressive advocate of your rights as a parent and seeks, at all times, to promote the best interests of your children. Contact our office today to schedule a consultation.
