About

Provided by Morris James LLP

Morris James represents clients across the full range of family law matters, for married couples and unmarried partners alike. Our work balances strong advocacy with practical guidance, and we give careful attention to the long-term implications of every decision—financial, personal, and familial. We treat everyone involved with dignity.

Wherever it serves the client, we work toward resolution through negotiation and mediation, which is often faster, more private, and less costly than litigation. When those approaches cannot resolve a matter, we are experienced litigators and try cases in the Delaware Family Court.

Our services span divorce, including property division and alimony; custody, visitation, and child support; paternity; termination of parental rights; step-parent adoption; guardianship; and marital and premarital agreements.
