Family Law and Mediation Services
A divorce or other family issue can be disruptive and emotionally charged for everyone concerned. Family-related legal cases present adults and children with numerous adjustments and challenges. Attorney Adam Kretowicz understands both the legal and emotional issues that arise in family cases. He is committed to providing the most effective level of legal service and representation while keeping your personal worries and challenges in mind at all times.
Attorney Kretowicz provides experienced legal representation and personalized service in every area affecting the family. Clients appreciate the firm's supportive atmosphere and its attorney's legal ability and experience. Attorney Kretowicz practices in the following areas:
- Adoption
- Child custody and child support
- Divorce, dissolution, and legal separation
- Domestic abuse and domestic violence
- Enforcement and modification proceedings
- Maintenance, spousal support, and alimony
- Marital property division and retirement benefits
- Paternity proceedings

Mr. Kretowicz also practices divorce mediation, where the couple controls how quickly or slowly decisions are made, when the divorce petition is filed, and what the terms of the Marital Settlement Agreement will be.
