A starting point for Oakland County families

Use this page to identify the decision in front of you, find the right service, and organize the information for a useful first conversation. If you already have a case, begin with the current order and the next date that requires attention.

What do you need help with?

I’m preparing for divorce

Understand the financial, parenting, and procedural decisions ahead.

I’m concerned about my children

Discuss custody, schedules, holidays, and disputed exchanges.

I already have an order

Review support questions and the need for enforcement or changes.

What happens next depends on where your case stands

01

Identify the immediate decision

A new divorce, a dispute under an existing order, and a proposed change to custody raise different questions. Identify any served papers, hearing dates, safety concerns, and upcoming parenting exchanges.

02

Organize the record

Bring the current orders and a short timeline. For financial issues, identify income, accounts, debts, and records you still need. For parenting issues, compare the order with the school calendar and the actual schedule.

03

Evaluate agreement and disputed issues

Some terms can be negotiated; others may need a court decision. Discuss the evidence, unresolved questions, and procedure before assuming that one route or time frame fits every case.

04

Plan how the terms will work

After a settlement or decision, practical details still matter: transfers, retirement paperwork, payment arrangements, transportation, and a calendar people can follow. Keep the complete final documents for future questions.

Questions to answer before hiring a family law attorney

What should the first conversation cover?

Your immediate concerns, existing papers, upcoming dates, and the decisions you need help making. A consultation can identify missing information and possible next steps; it does not guarantee a result or complete a full investigation.

Who would handle the matter?

Ask which attorney would lead the work, how other team members would assist, and how routine questions would be handled. The family law team includes Theresa Rizer, Hunter McCulloch, and Principal Attorney Fahd Haque. Confirm the assignment for your matter.

How are fees and scope explained?

Ask what the proposed engagement covers, the required initial payment, billing arrangements, and any replenishment requirements. Review the written agreement before deciding to retain the firm.

How do I begin?

Use Microsoft Bookings to request an available consultation appointment, or call the firm. Mention served papers or approaching dates when scheduling. Confirm the appointment format and location, and ask how to share sensitive documents securely.
