Civil Litigation

Resolving Family Disputes Through Legal Action

Family law matters often bring about sensitive and complex disputes that cannot always be resolved through negotiation or mediation. In these cases, civil litigation may be necessary to ensure that the rights and interests of all parties involved are protected. At BCN Law Firm, we specialize in family law civil litigation, providing experienced legal representation to help clients resolve contentious issues such as divorce, child custody, support disputes, and property division in court.

Central Florida Family Law Civil Litigation Attorneys

Civil litigation in the context of family law refers to the process of resolving family-related disputes in court. Unlike mediation or negotiation, which involve collaborative efforts to reach an agreement, civil litigation involves formal legal proceedings where a judge determines the outcome. Common family law issues that may lead to civil litigation include contested divorces, custody battles, disputes over child or spousal support, and conflicts over property division.

Our attorneys at BCN Law Firm are experienced in representing clients in family law litigation, ensuring that your rights are upheld, and your interests are protected throughout the process.

Common Family Law Issues Involving Civil Litigation

Family law disputes can be emotionally charged and legally complex. At BCN Law Firm, we handle a wide range of family law issues that may require civil litigation, including:

Contested Divorce: When couples cannot agree on the terms of their divorce, including asset division, spousal support, or child custody, civil litigation may be necessary to resolve the conflict. Our attorneys represent clients in contested divorce cases, ensuring that their rights are protected and that a fair resolution is achieved.
Child Custody Disputes: Child custody disputes can be some of the most challenging family law matters. If parents cannot agree on custody or visitation arrangements, a judge may need to make a decision in the child’s best interest. We advocate for our clients’ parental rights and work to secure a favorable custody arrangement.
Child and Spousal Support Disputes: Disagreements over child or spousal support can lead to civil litigation. Whether you are seeking support or defending against a support claim, our attorneys work to ensure that support orders are fair and reflect the financial realities of both parties.
Property Division: In high-asset divorces or situations where property division is contested, civil litigation may be necessary to ensure that assets are divided equitably. We represent clients in property division disputes, ensuring that their financial interests are protected.
Paternity Disputes: When the legal parentage of a child is in question, civil litigation may be required to establish or dispute paternity. We represent clients in paternity cases, ensuring that parental rights and obligations are properly determined.

Lois Carr

Polite, knowledgeable and thorough. Our attorney was prepared for our visit. We were treated with respect.

Robert Miner

I was referred to Wade Boyette by my investment advisor, Jean Dorrell, after moving to Florida and needing to set up a Trust and update my Will. Before deciding to work with Wade, I did my due diligence — reviewing his Better Business Bureau rating and reading online reviews — all of which were overwhelmingly positive, and now I see why.

From our first meeting, I was very impressed with Wade’s knowledge, professionalism, and ability to clearly explain the legal process. He answered all my questions thoroughly and offered thoughtful advice tailored to my situation. He handled the setup of my Trust and the update to my Will efficiently and in a timely manner.

I highly recommend Wade Boyette to anyone in need of reliable and experienced legal services.

Shannon Bass

Office ataff was extremely friendly! Wade was fantastic and explained everything to us! I highly recommend them.

Troy Ford

I had the misfortune of having to file for bankruptcy last year. I hired BCN Law firm to handle my case and dealt mostly with Ken Costello and his assistant Carol. They did an outstanding job on my case which was not the average case. They analyzed my situation and found the best path for me to move forward. It did take a long time to go through (such is the case with bankruptcy) but Carol kept my wife and me updated and assured us that our worst fears were not something that was going to happen. I would recommend the firm to anyone who needs one of the services they provide.

Sonja Gore

I had a great professional experience with the staff at BCN Law Firm and wholeheartedly recommend to any future clients in need of organizing their final affairs.

Lynn Willis

Everyone was very friendly, concerned about us. They explained everything to us. Thank you for your kindness.

Jeff Milroy

My experience with Heath and the staff was great. This was something new for me, and they explained everything very well. It was easy to get my questions answered and the whole process seemed to go very smoothly. Heath's paralegal Lynnette was very helpful and kept me updated and informed along the way. Thank you all so much and I will definitely use and recommend you in the future.

Lula Patrick

Very professional. Very happy with the services. I would highly suggest anyone to use his services.
