CHILD CUSTODY/DCF ISSUES


Do You Feel Like Your Situation Is Impossible?

Are You Being Denied Your Rightful Visitation With Your Children?

Nothing Is Right When Your Children are Gone.

Let Us Help You Bring Your Children Home.

If you are getting divorced and have children, part of the divorce agreement will involve determining where and with whom the children will live. Attorney Stephanie Bernstein can help you negotiate custody, either by agreement or in court. The custodial parent (the one the child lives with) earns the legal right to make decisions regarding the child's lifestyle, welfare, and education. Some parents opt for joint custody, which means children divide their time between both parents' homes, and parents share the right to make decisions on behalf of the children.  

If you,  as parents,  are unable to agree on child custody, a judge will decide for you.


But what happens if you are being denied your rightful and court-ordered visitation?


OR


Your children have been taken from you by DCF?


You need an attorney with a proven track record for reuniting children and parents.  

Attorney Stephanie Bernstein has that track record.  Our firm has helped reunite dozens of parents and children who are moving forward with their lives as a result of her legal diligence, hard-work, intense family-values and her professional contacts,  both in and out of the court room.  

These key elements result in parent-child re-unifications in some of the 

most difficult and seemingly impossible situations.  





What Our Clients Are Saying

Attorney Stephanie Bernstein is an amazing lawyer and an even better person. She doesn't just build a case she builds a relationship with her clients and she really cares about them and in my case my children as well. The best interest of my children was always her top priority and because of attorney Bernstein and her incredible staff the children are happy, healthy, safe and with me. I always got straight answers , whether it was what I wanted to hear or not it was honest, intelligent and we'll thought out responses to my many questions. When you're going through a divorce and custody battle life is hard enough and at times you feel like you just can't go on ,and then you call your lawyer at 11 pm and she just doesn't answer the phone she really cares enough to spend the time to calm you down and make you feel better. That is the type of person she is , which in itself would be enough to retain her as your attorney, but that is not what you need an attorney for , sometimes you need a bulldog. Stephanie is all that and more ,her court presence is second to none and so is her knowledge of the law. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a top notch lawyer.
