Looking Out For The Best Interest Of Your Child

In Pennsylvania, as in many other states, Judges make decisions based upon the “best interests of the child(ren)” that is in accordance with law. The LaMonaca Law offers assistance in protecting your child’s rights. We are knowledgeable in many aspects of the rules regarding: custodial visitation, children’s rights in parental custody disputes, and even rights for children with disabilities in all public and private matters.

Many parents are unaware of what the laws allow or prohibit. Therefore, uninformed parents unknowingly break the rules or even mishandle Court orders. If you are unsure, please consult with one of our custody lawyers to determine your rights and your children’s rights.

In addition to being legally complex, often custody issues can be emotionally and physically draining. This is true for both for the children and the parents. If you need to resolve a problem in a child custody matter, our experienced family law attorneys have handled to the most complex to the most simple custody agreement, throughout the many counties of Pennsylvania. Our team of attorneys will represent you and your family with compassion, understanding, and timeliness. We can attend to all post-divorce or separation matters that children may be involved.

Ensure a bright future for your child, without disruption. Contact us now for children’s rights matters of all types.

I highly recommend Andrew Francos as an attorney. I took him an emotion filled, confusing, complicated support case. Andrew removed the emotion and simplified the issue to bring the case to a successful conclusion.

Pricing is outrageous, but apparently that is the norm. My lawyer did seem to do a good job with stating facts in the court room, but I still lost. Nothing that was presented, facts, proof, all of what we presented over 6 hours ALL proving in my favor. It didn’t matter. I somehow still lost. My son is losing even more.I think my lawyer did a nice job in court, but it didn’t matter. The person without a lawyer, without proof of anything except he could not handle more time, still won. As soon as we got the new order, he was in contempt. But nothing can be done about it. Apparently I need to fight more with no guarantees.It doesn’t matter if you have a good lawyer, the judge makes all the calls.

Ridiculously priced for a horrible job representing me. It should be illegal how much they charged me and left me completely unsatisfied. Filing things incorrectly, charging me hundreds of dollars still for those filings, and much more. I would not recommend this law firm to anyone. Now a year later still paying off this law firm and never received a final copy with signatures, my lawyer Jane never even finished the job in making sure I received hard copy or a usable copy of my custody order. Completely unsatisfied and do not recommend!

Within two months of taking on my case, $3,000 out of the initial $5,000 retainer has been depleted. Instead of discussing all the available options upfront, they prefer to present one possibility at a time, fully aware of its low probability of success. This strategy is designed to deplete your funds by prolonging the process and proposing unnecessary solutions, rather than laying out all the alternatives for a comprehensive discussion. Be wary, as they have a penchant for inundating you with countless emails, even for simple confirmations, all while charging exorbitant fees of $70 or more for a mere sentence.

I was involved in a custody battle and had to get a new lawyer (for a few reasons). I chose Teresa Mallon. Teresa is an exceptional lawyer who fought for me and helped me through my lengthy custody battle. She had to take a leave of absence but did not leave me in bad hands. She gave me some suggestions on who would be excellent to represent me. I chose to stay with LaMonaca Law and have Mike G represent me. Again, I felt in great hands as he was prepared, knowledgeable, professional, etc. Although being a single father, they worked with me and held my hand throughout the entire agonizing process. Now I have my daughter an equal amount of time and feel so much better. Thank you LaMonaca Law.
