Representing New Jersey Families
We offer the resources of a larger law firm, while building a level of comfort and trust that is important to our clients.
The attorneys at Gebhardt & Kiefer are skilled negotiators in cases involving family relationships. While relatively few family law cases actually proceed to trial, our lawyers have gone to trial successfully when necessary to protect our clients' rights and interests.
Our lawyers handle all types of family law cases, including:
- Divorce
- Division of marital property
- Alimony
- Child custody and visitation
- Child support
- Civil Unions
- Domestic Partnerships
- Post-divorce modifications to child custody and support
- Domestic violence proceedings
- Paternity actions involving unmarried parents seeking child support or child custody
- Prenuptial agreements
- Stepparent and foster parent adoptions
- International adoptions
- Juvenile matters
One of the most contested issues that can arise following divorce is relocation by a custodial parent that would result in removal of a child from New Jersey. Our lawyers have successfully represented parents who wanted to move over the objections of a parent with visitation rights. We have also successfully represented parents who were opposed to removal of their child from New Jersey.
Our family law attorneys include William Goodwin, William Rudnik and Diana Fredericks. Mr. Goodwin and Mr. Rudnik are certified as matrimonial attorneys by the Supreme Court of New Jersey. Mr. Goodwin frequently lectures and writes articles on family law and appears on local cable television stations to discuss family law topics.
