We Can Help You Work Through a Variety of Legal Family Matters
You may be considering marriage or cohabitation. Perhaps your relationship is coming to an end. Whether you are starting or ending a relationship, or working through unresolved family issues, a family attorney in Edmonds can provide sound legal advocacy and protection.
- Edmonds Child Custody/Parenting Plan Lawyer: A parenting plan determines how much time you spend with or live with your child, and the extent of your role in making life-affecting decisions for them. We help create parenting plans that honor your relationship and serve your child’s best interests, as the Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 26.09.002 demands.
- Edmonds Child Support Lawyer: Child support schedules should be fair. We can work to ensure you do not overpay and your ex does not underpay, and can also help if you need to petition to modify child support arrangements.
- Edmonds Child Relocation Lawyer: One parent may want or need to move. Whether you are asking to relocate or objecting to your ex’s request, we can help you present your position to the court.
- Edmonds Spousal Maintenance Lawyer: Spousal maintenance (alimony) is not guaranteed in a divorce. We can help you formulate your request for financial support from your ex, or fight against an unfair support request.
- Edmonds Cohabitation Lawyer: When you and your partner understand the implications before moving in together, you can settle potential conflicts before they start and have a plan in place should your relationship change. Our team can provide pre-cohabitation legal guidance and support.
- Edmonds Committed Intimate Relationships Lawyer: Couples may plan a life together, but choose not to enter a legal marriage. Dellino Family Law can help you address legal and financial matters that affect your committed intimate relationship.
- Edmonds Divorce Lawyer: You may be pursuing a “gray divorce,” in the midst of a high-conflict divorce, working through a high-net worth divorce, or proceeding with an uncontested divorce. We can help you avoid the most common divorce mistakes and work to reach a divorce agreement as efficiently as possible.
- Edmonds Legal Separation Lawyer: There are differences between legal separation and divorce. Our attorneys can explain the implications of each and help you determine which option serves your situation.
- Edmonds Domestic Violence Lawyer: You might be a victim of domestic violence or of false accusations of it. Partnering with an experienced legal team is a critical step to take to protect yourself and your family.
- Edmonds Non-Traditional Family Lawyer: Non-traditional families have unique needs. You may need to create surrogacy and donor agreements, pursue a second-parent adoption, develop a non-traditional custody arrangement, or determine parentage, for example. Our team can find solutions.
- Edmonds LGBTQIA+ Lawyer: LGBTQIA+ individuals and families can trust our experienced team to uphold their rights and respect their relationships. We can handle adoption, surrogacy, parenting plans, divorce, and other legal matters.
- Edmonds Estate Planning Lawyer: Our attorneys can help you plan ahead. We can make sure your plans for your children, your finances, and other important issues are secure.

What We Can Do For You
Specific laws and legal procedures govern family matters. We have handled a broad spectrum of family matters, and each case benefits from our extensive experience and collective legal knowledge.
You also benefit from our resources. We have relationships with experts, including forensic accountants, investigators, and custody analysts who can provide valuable insight and powerful testimony. Our team is ready to carry out these actions, and others:
- Draft contracts or agreements to protect your rights
- Provide trustworthy, legal advice
- Gather evidence needed to build your case or fight against an unfair petition or accusation
- Negotiate on your behalf and fight at trial if necessary
We first work to negotiate resolutions through out-of-court negotiations, but if the other side makes that outcome impossible, an attorney will be fully prepared to argue your case at trial.
