About
Provided by Morris James LLP
Morris James’ Family Law Practice is widely regarded by our clients, our legal peers, and the Family Court judiciary and the community as the preeminent family law practice in Delaware. Our representation is characterized by a balance of client advocacy and practical guidance. Our attorneys approach the myriad of issues inherent in the practice of family law with sensitivity, compassion, and thoughtful consideration given to the long-term implications of the outcomes that we achieve.
The dignity of all of the parties involved is of paramount importance to us. Whenever feasible, we strive to reach amicable and workable resolution through negotiation and mediation. Typically, these tactics achieve results more quickly, efficiently, and cost-effectively than can be attained through litigation. Where these preferred methods are unsuccessful, however, we are experienced and successful litigators.
We possess substantial experience in all aspects of family law, for both married couples and unmarried partners. Our legal services include divorce actions including property division and alimony, custody, visitation, child support, paternity actions, termination of parental rights, step-parent adoption cases, guardianship proceedings, and marital and premarital agreements.
