• Divorce. Our attorney counsels you on your rights and options, providing cost-effective, sensitive, and sensible representation during a divorce.
• Alimony/Spousal Support We advise people seeking spousal support and those paying it, both before and after the divorce becomes final.
• Child Support Child support matters are guided by the state child support calculator. We make sure that all relevant factors are included and all special situations are considered.
• Custody Custody is often the most contentious issue in a divorce. We ensure that custody arrangements are in the best interests of your children, and not a manipulative spouse.
• Visitation Each parent has a right and a responsibility to be involved in his or her child's life.
• Property Settlements/Equitable Distribution We work with financial specialists to be sure all assets are considered when dividing marital property.
• Complex and Contested Divorce A lengthy and angry divorce helps neither party. We work hard to accomplish our client's goals in a way that minimizes stress and gets the results they need. However, when these goals cannot be achieved by settlement, Mr. Bloom will go to court and try your case.
• Legal Separation When you live apart from your spouse, you need a separation agreement that spells out matters such as child support, alimony, custody, and visitation.
• Domestic Violence If you are experiencing or being threatened with violence from a spouse, fiancé, ex-spouse, or family member, seek help immediately from an experienced lawyer or from your local police.
• Paternity Paternity is easy to determine. Do not let disputes over the paternity of a child prevent you from exercising your rights.
• Grandparent Rights Grandparents may petition the court to allow access to grandchildren when the parents are absent or are fighting such access.
• Post Divorce Actions We file motions to change final divorce orders in matters related to visitation, support, and other family law areas. As your life and the life of your ex-spouse changes, the divorce may have to change to reflect the new circumstances.
• Parental Relocation / Move-aways We assist parents with disputes related to parental relocation with a child. We, and the court, always try to act in the best interests of the children in move-away matters.

In addition to these family law matters, we help people with personal injury and workers' compensation. To learn more about our West New York legal practice, contact the Law Offices of Jeffrey M.
