Protecting What Matters Most

Whether you are navigating divorce, fighting for custody of your children, or planning a family through adoption, the decisions made in family court will shape your life for years. You deserve an attorney who combines rigorous legal strategy with genuine compassion for the people involved.

Demidchik Law Firm family law attorneys take a mediation-first approach wherever possible — reducing conflict, preserving co-parenting relationships, and minimizing costs. When negotiation fails and courtroom advocacy is required, our litigators are experienced trial attorneys who fight hard for your rights and your children's best interests.

We serve multicultural and multilingual families across our seven offices, understanding that cultural context matters deeply in family law proceedings. Our team communicates with clients in English, Mandarin, Spanish, and Russian.

Our Family Law Services

Comprehensive representation for every stage of family life — from planning to transition and everything in between.

Divorce & Separation
We handle both contested and uncontested divorces, navigating property division, debt allocation, and spousal support with precision. For high-asset divorces involving businesses, real estate, or international assets, we bring in forensic experts when needed to pursue a fair and accurate division.

Child Custody & Visitation
We advocate for custody and parenting-time arrangements (the terminology varies by state) that reflect the child's best interests. Whether through negotiated parenting plans or contested custody hearings, we present evidence of your parenting fitness while protecting your relationship with your children.

Child Support
Establishing, enforcing, and modifying child support orders requires an attorney who understands both the statutory guidelines and the discretionary factors courts apply. We work to make sure support amounts reflect true income, including self-employment, bonuses, and hidden assets, and pursue enforcement when payments are missed.

Spousal Support (Alimony)
Whether you are seeking maintenance or defending against an unfair demand, we build detailed financial cases around income, earning capacity, the length of the marriage, and contributions made during it. We also handle post-divorce modifications when circumstances change substantially.
Learn More
Prenuptial Agreements
A thoughtfully drafted prenuptial or postnuptial agreement protects both parties and helps avoid costly disputes later. We draft agreements designed to be enforceable, addressing property, business interests, and financial expectations, with full financial disclosure and independent counsel for each spouse.
Learn More
Adoption & Guardianship
Growing your family through adoption is a joyful but legally complex process. We handle domestic and international adoptions, stepparent adoptions, and guardianship petitions — guiding families through court requirements, home studies, and finalization hearings with care and efficiency.
