Family Law

Family law covers a broad range of issues relating to families as well as separation and divorce. However, it is not limited to the dissolution of marriages but also to adoption, adoption by stepparents, child custody disputes, spousal and child support, and community property negotiation. Rudd Law Firm focuses on the best interests of the entire family in order to achieve equitable and peaceful resolutions.

Collaborative Divorce

Collaborative divorce is an alternative to traditional divorce proceedings that attempts to resolve divorces with decreased emotional and financial costs to all parties involved. In these situations, a lawyer will help clients put a team together that considers the interests of all parties involved while respecting the privacy of the whole family. This type of proceeding has many advantages over both mediation by a third party and lengthy court battles which can include more desirable results and reduced legal and court costs.

Laws regarding successions without a will in Louisiana are stricter and more complex than most people realize, but with a professionally drafted will you can be confident that your wishes will be followed if an unforeseen event arises.
