Canton, Ohio, Family Law Attorney
At the Law Offices of James R. Vaughn, we help families in transition through a variety of difficult family law issues, including divorce, dissolution, legal separation, child custody, and child support. In this personal area of law, we provide thoughtful, assertive representation of your rights in all negotiations and court proceedings. We know these matters can be difficult emotionally and we are here to help.
For a free initial consultation to discuss your family law needs, call us toll-free at 866-604-1138 or in Canton at 330-497-9700. You can also contact us by e-mail. We represent clients in a wide array of family law disputes, including: - Divorce/Dissolution: We provide effective representation in one of the most emotional legal proceedings anyone can face. Though divorce is an adversarial process, your lawyer should be a legal guide and advocate focused on obtaining a lasting, favorable resolution rather than continuing or escalating conflict.
- Child Custody Disputes: For a divorcing parent, your child's interests are of utmost importance. We help you protect both your parental rights and your child's best interests.
- Child Support Disputes: Child support orders are based on the financial situations of both parents. We represent custodial and non-custodial parents.
- Visitation: We provide effective advocacy for your parental rights and needs as we strive to build a parenting plan that is fair to you and your child.
- Spousal Support: A common point of contention in divorce/dissolution cases is whether any spousal support should be ordered, and if so, in what amount. We help to ensure the result is fair and reasonable.
- Child Support/Child Custody Modification: When circumstances change after a divorce or dissolution, the assistance of a skilled lawyer is often needed to obtain modifications to child support or child custody orders.
- Relocations: These cases involve the custodial parent's intent to move within the state or to another state. Generally, the non-custodial parent with visitation rights will object to a move that will take the child a great distance away - and therefore make visitation impractical.
- Prenuptial and Post-Nuptial Agreements: While prenuptial agreements are valid in Ohio, the courts require that the document and circumstances exhibit good faith and a high degree of fairness and disclosure of all material circumstances.
