Practice Areas of the Law Office of Lance H. Meyer

We have a thorough understanding of the court system throughout the greater New York City & Long Island Area, including Long Island, Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Bronx, Staten Island, and Westchester. Our practice areas are comprehensive and include:

• Family Law – Disputes and disagreements arise that are best settled with proper and thorough legal counsel and representation, whether for divorce, custody of your children, petition for alimony, or any aspect of family law.
• Divorce Law – Emotion can easily get in the way during a divorce proceeding. Our divorce law services seek what is fair and equitable for our clients, while providing quality legal representation that remains focused on treating all parties involved with respect.
• Child Custody – When it comes to making decisions about child custody and child visitation, parents are not always able to reach an amicable resolution. The courts of New York State always focus on the best interests of the child (children); we help you through the entire legal process and make sure you are properly represented.
• Child Support – The laws of New York State around child support are clear: A non-custodial parent must pay child support calculated on the basis of their income and other factors. We support this process on your behalf – whether you need to collect child support or are the parent facing child support payment – to ensure payments are fair and all they should be.
• Spousal Support/Alimony – A variety of factors go into the decision of how much spousal support must be paid. We represent your interests – to either make certain you receive the full amount to which you are entitled or that you pay what is just and fair.
• Equitable Property Distribution – The law requires marital property to be distributed equitably between two parties who are divorcing. In representing you, we consider every legal factor that goes into the decision process for distributing property.
• Same-sex Marriage/Divorce – We understand the nuances and intricacies that accompany a same-sex marriage and/or divorce situation, and provide the legal support that represents your best interests.
• Pre-/Post-nuptial Agreements – Regardless of the strength of your love and bond with your future spouse, we believe that legal planning for a potential divorce is wise. We structure pre- or post-nuptial agreements to protect your assets in the unfortunate situation of divorce.
• Estate Planning – We espouse proper and timely estate planning, whether in the form of a will, a trust, or a lifetime gift, to help your family and loved ones at the time of your death. We understand the law, and will draft your documents to minimize the negative impact to your assets.
