Fayetteville, GA Family Law

Whether you are going through a divorce or adopting, emotions run high. The simpler the legal and court process is, the less stressful it is for everyone involved.

If you are dreading a family legal issue in your life, the good news for you is that many family legal issues are less complicated than they might seem. Divorce, child custody, and child support, for instance, can often be handled through mediation, without the need to go to court at all. Using mediation takes less time, is less costly, and keeps your familial legal issues private.

Sometimes, however, the court is necessary. With her years of experience, Ms. Sanford recognizes when mediation or court will prove the most effective means of getting your desired outcome, and she will represent you diligently, whether behind the scenes or in a courtroom.
