How will your decisions today affect your family and you 10 years from now?

Lucas Family Law guides its clients toward healthy decision-making during challenging times. Your first meeting with our close-knit team of attorneys and assistants will probably feel more like a conversation with friends. That's because fully understanding your story is how we can best advise you on legal options.

Sit down with us in this eclectic and cozy old house. We'll get you a cup of coffee or tea and you can take a deep breath and tell us what happened. We won't rush you.

Once we have a good grasp of your situation, however, Lucas Family Law moves into action and can provide a full range of mediation, settlement, and litigation options to deal effectively with divorce, separation, paternity, custody, parenting time, child support, spousal maintenance, prenuptial, and asset division issues. We'll help you clarify which services you really need and the best way of pursuing your goals with minimal emotional and financial strain.

Lucas Family Law creates a plan with you. We are mindful of your timeline and will be clear with you on what is realistic and how to handle delays or obstacles – or even just a bad day. We'll help you prepare for parenting in a changed family to avoid future legal conflicts. If a situation arises after your case is finalized, we're just a phone call away.

Our goal is for you to achieve resolution and to be in a position of strength – with your dignity, loved ones, and assets intact.

"The setting couldn't be any better as far as the home on Grand Avenue and the conversation. You don't feel the dark paneling and triple cobra plush desk of a law firm. It's warm and friendly. Joan kept me aligned with what I needed to do. Give her a call. Chat with her. It's up to you to see if it's a fit like it was for me. My divorce could have been devastating financially. There were lots of moving parts and pieces so the case itself was quite expensive. Joan told me not to hold anything back in the depositions and she would work out the best case and worst case, which she did. And we prevailed."
