Under Louisiana law, a father of a child born outside of marriage is not responsible for child support until paternity has been established. Louisiana law also governs situations where a married man questions his paternity of a child born during his marriage. In my practice, I help individuals establish parental rights and contest inaccurate declarations of paternity.

Marriage is one of the most important life events. A prenuptial or postnuptial agreement is a practical way to ensure both parties’ interests are protected prior to entering marriage or after. It's a way to take your future into your own hands, instead of leaving it up to a divorce court should your marriage end. Some of the benefits of a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement are protecting children, the other spouse from debt or property. It may also be beneficial if one or both spouses have accumulated assets prior to marriage.

Domestic violence may be defined as physical, sexual, economic and/or psychological abuse to control and maintain control over an intimate partner. Under Louisiana law, there are different types of protective orders that can be issued based on the threat of physical or sexual abuse or an act of violence. In Family Law, a restraining order is a court order that prohibits your spouse or intimate partner from abusing, threatening, harassing or stalking you amongst other legal remedies. I help clients obtain a restraining order or defend against a wrongfully issued restraining order.
