Family Law

The Future is the Most Important Asset We Help Protect in Divorce.

There is life after divorce, and the most responsible divorces ensure that clients are favorably positioned for their future. The Family Law Group of Feldesman Tucker brings a unique blend of experience, compassion, cutting-edge knowledge and skills to understanding—and securing—what clients will need in the years ahead. Our individualized representation of clients facing divorce in the Washington, DC metropolitan area focuses on long-term priorities, such as protecting children’s best interests and financial resources.

Knowing that divorce affects many aspects of a client’s life, Feldesman Tucker’s Washington, DC metropolitan area Family Law group is dedicated to achieving positive outcomes that help clients move forward successfully after divorce. The Family Law group’s attorneys resolve most cases through attorney negotiation, mediation, or the Collaborative divorce process. The Family Law group’s partners also act as neutral mediators and arbitrators to facilitate resolution of couples’ disputes. However, when settlement is not possible, Feldesman Tucker’s experienced divorce attorneys and family law litigators, repeatedly recognized and respected by their peers, provide vigorous representation and advocacy in courts throughout the Washington, DC metropolitan area. 

Adept at handling complex custody and financial issues, our Family Law attorneys have the experience, savvy, creativity and determination to achieve the desired results for our diverse clients, who include high net-worth individuals, dependent spouses, and employees of international organizations such as the World Bank and IADB. Related areas of our firm's expertise include trusts and estate planning, domestic violence matters and representation of small business.

Widely recognized as top divorce lawyers, our attorneys have been repeatedly honored by Washingtonian magazine, Best Lawyers in America, and SuperLawyers.
