I was fortunate to have been referred to Attorney Adam D. Schmaelzle from a client of mine. After…read moremy first appointment with Adam I knew I had made the right decision. Adam consistently steered me in the right direction for the best possible outcome. Adam has been incredibly professional, prompt in his communication and compassionate throughout my lengthy divorce. Thanks to Adam I felt we were well prepared for every issue or event that arose. I hope to never need an attorney in the future but if I do I know the first person I will be calling will be Adam. Adam works in other areas of the law in addition to divorces so if he is not able to assist you, he will refer you to another attorney that will be able to help. Thanks again for everything.

Adam helped me with a divorce with complications due to children and keeping children in a home…read more Adam worked out a method for the kids to stay in their home, delaying benefit splitting until the mom can get a new place in her own time. Less drama and anger. Also Adam was patient with the years-long back and forth of locking down working situations on both sides prior to actually pulling the trigger. Adam is technically very professional, extremely competent, and though quick, has a calming way with folks on both sides of the aisle. I have great respect for Adam. If I find I need lawyer services in the future, Adam is on speed-dial.

Detailed, methodical, and zealous in his pursuit of his client's best interest…read more Chip (John) took on my case after it had already been in the system for years... long after the divorce was finalized. My ex was bringing me in on a modification trying to get a king's ransom in child support and cut back on both my time and legal rights with the kids. I had interviewed other attorneys and was told the cards were not in my favor and that regardless of how badly my ex behaved the system was going to operate in her favor because she was a non-working Mom and I was a working Dad (basically I was told to prepare for the worst). When I went over the details of my case with Chip he assured me that what I was dealing with (my ex's flagrant violations of orders and refusal to respect my role as a parent) was not OK and that he could fight to make the situation work better for me and my relationship with the kids. In brief, Chip was not only able to help me defeat my ex's attempt to undercut my ability to be a parent to my kids, he was able to help me win sole-legal and physical custody of my kids by helping the court see just how bad her behavior really was. To say that this reversal of fortune was a life-changer is an understatement. Chip found ways to get the court to see how unbalanced my ex was... she did us some favors along the way by no showing certain hearings and becoming more brazen in her willingness to violate orders... but had I been with any of the other attorneys I interviewed we wouldn't have even been in position to capitalize on her errors... they were all working to minimize how bad my losses would be rather than adopt the mindset of working toward a win for my relationship with the kids. It's a slight shift in mentality that paid major dividends as my case progressed. I found Chip easy to work with, responsive to feedback and questions, and open to modifying his approach dependent upon what I had in mind on any particular issue. His legal writing style was also a breath of fresh air after having had my legal rights trampled on for years. It cannot be overstated how nice it was to have someone in my corner who was serious about fighting for my rights... his ability to hold the line even when the case got increasingly more complicated made all the difference in the world. TLDR... highly recommended!

My former spouse hired Nick Plante as legal council to request Modification of Divorce agreement…read more(4th time). Attorney plante reached out to my previous attorney of which I did not hire. After receiving a demanding and threatening email stating the buyout and how it was to be handled, of which was not in my best interest. I promptly responded with an three (3) alternative means of resolution, that was in January of 2025. I left numerous phone messages requesting a call back along with emails of which Attorney Plante blatantly ignored me. I hired my own legal council and after wasting approximately $2000 and 5 months of waiting, Attorney Plante has ignored and ghosted my legal council along with myself. The matter being brought is frivoulous and without merit. He ignores and is disrespectful of other Attorney's time. He apparently takes the money and that's it. No real representation or follow thru on the matter. I did receive a complete insulting and low ball offer, only to be told that the had not run it by his client. Again have not heard anything from Attorney Plante since April 2025. DON'T BOTHER WASTING YOUR MONEY ON ATTORNEY PLANTE!

My wife and I worked with Robert on a very complicated case. Before hiring him, we consulted with…read moremultiple attorneys. Every one of them tried to persuade us to file a Ch 13 because they believed our income was too high for a Ch 7. Robert was the only attorney who carefully reviewed our situation and felt we had a strong case for Ch 7. We ultimately decided to hire Robert, and it was one of the best decisions we could have made. Robert's preparation was incredibly thorough. He paid attention to every detail and followed a very structured process. At times, I honestly thought he was asking for more documentation than necessary. I didn't understand why he needed so much paperwork--until the hearing. While waiting for our case to be called, we watched several other attorneys struggle because they weren't prepared. The magistrate repeatedly reprimanded attorneys for their lack of preparation, and many cases had to be continued. When my wife's name was finally called, I was nervous that we'd run into similar problems. Instead, thanks to Robert's preparation, every document was in order and every question was answered immediately. Our hearing went smoothly without a single issue. Our case was completed efficiently and without any resistance from the court. Seeing firsthand how other cases unfolded made us appreciate Robert's attention to detail, preparation, and deep knowledge of the law even more. If you're looking for an attorney who will thoroughly prepare your case and give you the best possible representation, I highly recommend Robert Kovacs. We were fortunate to find him.

What kind of family law cases are mediated Any type of family law case may be mediated. If there is a disagreement over custody of minor children, parenting time with minor children, child or spousal support, or allocation of debt and distribution of property, the parties may call on a mediator to help them resolve their disputes. Mediation is available whether or not the parents of the minor child were married, and it is available to resolve disputes over grandparent visitation. The courts encourage mediation of disputes in family law cases, because the court process often fails to adequately resolve disputed issues. Mediation is not normally used to address a family abuse prevention restraining order...
