At Miller Law Group, P.C., our experienced attorneys are dedicated to guiding individuals through every step of the process, providing compassionate representation and strategic counsel in a wide range of family law matters.
Divorce
Divorce is a life-changing event, and it can become complicated when financial disputes or children are involved. At Miller Law Group, P.C., we help clients navigate both contested and uncontested divorces with a focus on securing fair outcomes. Our attorneys will work with you to address key issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and custody arrangements while ensuring that your rights and interests are protected.
Custody & Parenting Plans
Child custody disputes can be some of the most contentious aspects of family law cases. Our attorneys are committed to creating parenting plans that focus on the best interests of the child while addressing the concerns of both parents. We handle:
- Physical custody: Determining where the child will live and how much time they will spend with each parent.
- Legal custody: Ensuring that both parents (or one parent in some cases) have the right to make major decisions about the child’s education, health care, and upbringing.
- Parenting plans: Crafting detailed parenting schedules that clearly define visitation, holidays, and special events to minimize future disputes.
- Relocation cases: Helping parents who wish to relocate with their children or contest a relocation request from the other parent.
Child Support
Massachusetts law requires both parents to contribute financially to the care and upbringing of their children, and Miller Law Group, P.C. is here to help ensure that child support arrangements are fair and in compliance with state guidelines. We work with clients to:
- Calculate child support: Based on the Massachusetts Child Support Guidelines, which consider factors such as income, childcare costs, and the needs of the child.
- Modify child support: Request changes to child support orders when circumstances change, such as a significant change in income or the child's needs.
- Enforce child support orders: Assist in cases where a parent is failing to meet their financial obligations, including filing contempt actions when necessary.
Alimony
Alimony, or spousal support, can be important particularly in divorce cases where one spouse is financially dependent on the other. Our attorneys have extensive experience in advocating for fair alimony arrangements based on Massachusetts law. We assist with:
- General term alimony: Typically awarded in longer marriages, where one spouse may need support for an extended period.
- Rehabilitative alimony: Designed to support a spouse for a limited time while they gain the education or training needed to become self-sufficient.
- Reimbursement alimony: Intended to repay a spouse for contributions made during the marriage, such as supporting the other spouse’s education or career development.
- Alimony modifications: Assisting clients in modifying existing alimony orders due to significant changes in financial circumstances, such as job loss or remarriage.
Property Division
Dividing marital assets and debts can be one of the most contentious aspects of a divorce. Massachusetts follows the principle of equitable distribution, which means that assets are divided fairly, though not necessarily equally. Our attorneys help clients navigate the complexities of property division by:
- Identifying marital vs. separate property: Determining which assets are subject to division, including real estate, bank accounts, investments, and retirement accounts.
- Business valuations: Working with forensic accountants to accurately assess the value of family-owned businesses or professional practices.
- Retirement accounts and pensions: Assisting with the division of complex financial assets such as 401(k) plans, pensions, and IRAs, ensuring compliance with Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (QDROs).
- Debt division: Helping clients determine fair responsibility for marital debts, such as mortgages, credit card balances, and loans.
