Child Support
The parents of a child are deemed by New York law to have equal rights to custody. Both parents are liable for child support until the child’s 21
Child Custody and Visitation
Litigating legal or residential custody is an expensive proposition. Not only are the attorneys paid huge sums, there are other costs such as the attorney who is appointed by the court to be the child’s attorney and the psychologists appointed by the court to examine all of the family member. As a New York family law lawyer, I strongly recommend that parties in New York County take part in the free mediation services relating to child custody.
Premarital Agreement
For most of the past thirty years she has been on the French Consulate’s referral list. Many of her clients are French citizens residing permanently or temporarily in New York. She is fully familiar with the various types of French prenuptial agreements. She is also on the State Department’s list of referrals for matters involving the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of Child Abduction.
Spousal Support
Each country has its own laws not only regarding jurisdiction but also regarding the distribution of assets, spousal support, and other divorce-related issues. If you are going through an international divorce, it is vital to retain a divorce attorney in New York who has experience handling these cases. Valerie S. Wolfman has assisted French citizens and other foreign nationals with going through the divorce process in New York, and she is a member of the International Association of Family Lawyers. She is fluent in French, German, and Swiss German. Grounds for Divorce in New York

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Wills
The decedent’s heirs must be listed in the probate petition and must be served with a citation that advises them that the executor filed a petition for authority to manage the decedent's estate. The heirs can either waive the right to contest the appointment of the executor or contest the appointment at a hearing. If they choose to contest it, they should hire a probate attorney in New York to represent them. Any beneficiaries of the estate must be given notice of the probate proceeding as well. If no one objects to the admission of the will to probate, the court will typically grant Letters Testamentary to the executor, which allow the executor to oversee the distribution of the estate and execute the directives set forth in the will.
