Straightforward Resolutions to Family Law Issues

By Cynthia Burns

“Family law is one of the most emotionally and financially complex areas of law,” believes Melissa Cipriano, Esq. “Having been through the process, I understand that clients experience emotions in an intensified form.” For that reason, Cipriano Law Offices advocates reaching a settlement rather than enduring a long litigation process.

Family law encompasses divorce, child custody and support, adoption, prenuptial agreements and domestic abuse. All attorneys at Cipriano Law Offices work as a team. They are mindful of the financial costs of each case and handle them efficiently. Cipriano describes the firm as mediation friendly, although divorce cases are prepared as if they will go to trial. The attorneys are qualified family law mediators.

The attorneys are members of the New Jersey Collaborative Law Group, which promotes a unified team approach rather than an adversarial one. “This works for the betterment of the family.”
