Comprehensive Family Law Services in Gulfport
At the Law Office of Kevin F. Coleman, we offer legal services covering a broad range of family law issues, including but not limited to:
- Divorce: Whether contested or uncontested, divorce involves significant legal and financial considerations. We guide clients through the divorce process, addressing property division, alimony, and other related concerns.
- Child Custody and Parenting Plans: Florida law prioritizes the best interests of the child in custody determinations. We help parents create fair and workable parenting plans that ensure meaningful relationships with their children.
- Child Support: Both parents have a legal obligation to support their children financially. We assist in calculating fair child support obligations and enforcing or modifying existing child support orders.
- Alimony (Spousal Support): The court may award alimony based on factors such as the length of the marriage and the financial circumstances of each spouse, provided the required criteria are proven according to applicable legal standards. We help clients seek or contest alimony as appropriate.
- Property Division (Equitable Distribution): Florida follows equitable distribution laws, meaning marital assets and debts are divided fairly but not necessarily equally. We work to protect our client’s financial interests in divorce proceedings, ensuring property is properly characterized, accurately valued, and fairly divided.
- Modifications of Court Orders: Life circumstances change, and existing family law court orders may need to be modified. We help clients petition for, oppose, or negotiate modifications related to custody, child support, and alimony.
- Enforcement of Court Orders: If a party fails to comply with a court order, legal action may be necessary. We assist with enforcement proceedings to ensure compliance with family law orders.
- Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements: These agreements help protect assets and define financial expectations before or after marriage. We draft and review agreements tailored to our clients’ needs.
- Paternity: Establishing paternity is essential for parental rights and responsibilities, including child support and custody. We help clients through the complex and sometimes contentious legal process of establishing or contesting paternity.
- Domestic Violence and Protective Orders: If you are a victim of domestic violence, legal protection is available through injunctions (restraining orders). We assist clients in seeking protection for themselves and their children. As a young lawyer in the State Attorney’s Office assigned to domestic court, Kevin F. Coleman prosecuted cases daily concerning domestic battery and restraining order violations. We’ll work to ensure your safety and fair treatment in divorce and custody disputes.
