The family law attorney at the Van Ness Law Group, P.A represents family law clients throughout Sarasota, Manatee, De Soto, Pinellas, Hillsborough, Charlotte counties whose needs go beyond the routine. We handle complex property division issues, parental relocation proposals, and sharp conflicts between divorcing parents including alimony and preparing their parenting plan. Our clients benefit from our practical advice in difficult situations, our flexible approach to solving problems, and our readiness to protect your interests in court whenever necessary. Nishit Patel focuses his practice on family law. Our lawyer understands the urgency of divorce questions and other family law problems. Because we work closely with each client, you'll learn about the ways Florida law can protect your interests or limit your options. Once you understand the legal considerations that affect your objectives, you'll be able to formulate realistic goals for yourself and your children. Then we go to work to help you achieve them. Our family practice thrives on keeping matters in your own hands. Getting married and having kids is easy. Getting divorced-splitting assets and "dividing" children-is another story. It can quickly get bitter and costly, but there are ways to make the process less painful and the outcome more agreeable. Our practice is based on the concept helping the client achieve the most desirable and equitable outcome that is best for all parties, especially the children. This approach considers not only the legal and financial aspects of divorce or custody, but also the emotional and psychological impact on all participants. Through mediation and negotiation, I help clients reach fair, reasonable settlements out of court whenever possible. If a legal fight is unavoidable, I will vigorously protect your interests while working to limit the negative and unintended consequences of court-imposed solutions.
