• Property Distribution: Under Ohio Revised Code § 3105.171, marital property is divided in an equitable manner. Each spouse is entitled to their “fair share” of the jointly held assets. If you are working towards a property division settlement or you are locked in a dispute, our Powell divorce lawyers can help.  
• Spousal Support: During and after a divorce, the financially disadvantaged partner may be entitled to spousal support/alimony. Ohio has complex alimony laws. If you have any questions about your rights or obligations, call our Powell, OH spousal support attorneys for help.

• Paternity: Paternity is the foundation of a father’s rights and responsibilities in Ohio. Without paternity, a father cannot seek custody or visitation. Similarly, he cannot be ordered to pay child support. If you have any questions about proving paternity, call our Powell, OH family lawyers for help.  
• Adoption: You can change a child’s life through adoption. We are here to help you navigate the complexities of the adoption process. With experience handling step-parent adoption, grandparent adoption, and private adoption, our Powell, OH family lawyers will protect your rights. 
• Family Mediation: Family law cases are often well-suited for mediation. A form of alternative dispute resolution (ADR), mediation puts an emphasis on collaborative problem solving. It is not a strictly adversarial process. We represent clients in mediation—helping them find solutions to divorce cases, custody disputes, and more. 
• Contempt & Enforcement: If your former spouse or co-parent refuses to follow an agreement or court order, you may need to take action to protect yourself. Call our Powell, OH family law contempt & enforcement lawyers for immediate assistance.
