Family Law Services at Long Hagan Huff-Harris
Comprehensive Legal Services for Divorce, Custody, Support, and Complex Family Matters
At Long Hagan Huff-Harris, we understand that family matters can be complicated, emotional, and deeply personal. Whether you’re preparing for a new marriage, navigating a separation, reassessing custody or support, or protecting your future, our goal is to provide thorough, empathetic, and effective legal support. Our experienced family-law attorneys know when to advocate forcefully for your rights — and when a thoughtful, measured approach creates better long-term outcomes for both parents and children.
Below is an overview of the full spectrum of family-law services we offer, and how they can serve families in Boston, Metro-West, South Shore, and beyond.
⚖️ What We Handle: Family-Law Services at a Glance
Divorce
We provide full-service divorce representation, guiding clients through every step: from filing to final judgment. Our attorneys work to help families divide assets, address child support, spousal support (alimony), and set up fair, sustainable financial arrangements.
Child Custody, Parenting Time & Parenting Plans
When children are involved, navigating custody and parenting time can be among the hardest aspects of separation. We help clients secure custody arrangements that reflect both legal rights and the best interests of the child — focusing on clarity, stability, and minimizing conflict.
Child Support, Spousal Support & Asset Division
Support orders, asset division, and equitable distribution are often central to divorce cases. Our team works to ensure fair, legally sound outcomes — whether negotiating support, drafting agreements, or representing clients in court when disputes arise.
Pre-Nuptial and Post-Nuptial Agreements
For couples planning marriage — or already married but wanting to clarify financial expectations — we draft pre-nups and post-nups tailored to your situation. These agreements can help protect individual assets, clarify rights, and prevent future conflict.
Paternity, Father’s Rights & Parental Rights Cases
Establishing paternity, asserting a parent’s rights, or defending against parental-alienation claims — especially when family situations are complex — requires sensitivity and skill. We support clients through these matters to ensure parental rights and obligations are fairly addressed.
Modifications & Enforcement (Child Support, Custody, etc.)
Life changes — jobs, income, living arrangements, child-care needs. When existing orders no longer reflect your reality, we help clients seek modifications. We also step in when support or custody agreements are violated, with enforcement or contempt proceedings if needed.
Protective Orders & Domestic Violence / Restraining Orders
When safety becomes a concern — whether for children or a spouse — our attorneys are prepared to assist with restraining orders and protective legal measures to protect clients’ rights and well-being.
Grandparents’ & Non-Traditional Family Rights (Visitation, Multi-Parent Families, etc.)
Modern families come in many shapes. When grandparents seek visitation rights, or when families have non-traditional structures (blended families, multi-parent households, etc.), we help navigate the legal pathways to establish rights and responsibilities in a way that serves children’s best interests.
Alternative Dispute Resolution & Mediation / Non-Litigation Options
Whenever possible, we encourage amicable resolution via mediation or other alternative dispute resolution methods. These options can reduce conflict, preserve relationships, and minimize emotional stress — especially important when children are involved. (Note: this builds on our firm’s broader philosophy of resolving family disputes with care and respect.)
