Mr. Lechtman recommends, where possible, mediation, instead of litigation, in matters related to the custody of minor children, living arrangements, financial considerations, alimony, and spousal maintenance.

Child Custody / Support / Visitation

The state of Florida determines both child custody and support based on a variety of complex factors, including the finances of both parents, violence in the relationship, and the more subjective notion of the "best interest" of the child. Attorney Michael Lechtman has served Florida families for over 30 years and is skilled in the effective negotiation of fair and reasonable custody and support agreements. He can help clearly identify your legal goals, draft fair financial arrangements, and ensure that your child is not used punitively by a former spouse during a dispute. Where necessary, he can assertively represent your interests in court.

Modification / Enforcement of Decrees

Child custody and support decrees need to be revisited to account for new family circumstances like remarriage and changing financial or living arrangements. Michael Lechtman has helped countless Florida families review, negotiate, or litigate postjudgment issues, especially if there has been domestic violence.

Divorce issues related to the care and custody of minor children are stressful and difficult to negotiate. Miami attorney Michael Lechtman is committed to fair, reasonable, and cost-effective resolutions, in keeping with our clients’ goals, and according to the law and the facts.
