Navigating Your Future with Experience and Care

Our Attorneys Meet Your Legal Team

At Johnson O'Keefe, our team of skilled and understanding legal professionals proudly provides comprehensive and efficient legal services for all clients.

Reasons You Need to Hire a Divorce Lawyer

When most people imagine divorce, they think of emotional arguments in the courtroom and impersonal judges delivering final rulings without regard for the personal dynamics at play in the case. Johnson O'Keefe is dedicated to helping local clients navigate complex divorce cases. We will help you identify the most contentious aspects of your divorce and discern any other variables likely to cause problems in your case.

Our lawyers are well-versed in the law. Retain our services for help: 

  • Protecting your legal rights. Divorce can be an emotional and complex legal process, and various laws and regulations govern child custody, child support, alimony, and property division. Our local lawyers can help guide you through the divorce process to help ensure you understand your legal rights and protect your best interests.
  • Negotiating a settlement agreement. If you and your spouse can agree on all of the issues in your divorce, your lawyer can help you draft a settlement agreement. A settlement agreement is a legally binding document that specifies the terms of your divorce, including child custody, child support, alimony, and property division.
  • Representing you in court. If you and your spouse can not agree on your divorce on your own, your lawyer can represent you in court. Johnson O'Keefe can help you present your case to the judge and advocate for your interests.

Our team can help with all preliminary court filings, assisting you in meeting all applicable deadlines, and preparing you for each new phase of the divorce process. When you have the opportunity to resolve aspects of your divorce privately, we will help you take full advantage of alternative dispute resolution to streamline the proceedings.

No attorney can ever promise a client a specific outcome to their case, but rest assured that when you choose Johnson O'Keefe to represent you in your divorce case, you will have responsive and compassionate legal counsel readily available to address the unique aspects of your divorce.

    “Everyone I dealt with at the firm was extremely professional, easy to talk to, and knowledgeable.”
    I worked with Elizabeth and she did way more for me than I thought possible. I was in a bad situation when I came in. She took my case then proceeded to go above and beyond until the very end. With them working my case my stress about the whole thing was pretty much gone.

    “Myles was firm and consistent while being very professional with the opposition.”
    Myles and his firm did an excellent job on my case. He helped me settle a financial dispute with my ex-wife concerning my retirement income. Myles was a good communicator and responded to questions and concerns promptly. I will definitely call him if I am ever in need of a lawyer.

    “They took a very stressful situation and made it a very pleasant storm.”
    I wasn’t familiar with the process of child custody but I must say not only did Myles and his team direct me properly but it was a process that wasn’t money motivated. Very professional group, I was constantly informed of any step or move needed to be made. When you have someone in your corner that understands the importance of family it makes the situation a ton easier, thank you Myles and Johnson group for everything!

    “My goals and the safety of my children were always the priority to the JOK team.”
    I called Johnson Law Group extremely frustrated and stressed with the process of my custody case. From the consultation to every conversation after, Elizabeth went out of her way to make sure that i was comfortable with all the matters and decisions. I highly recommend Elizabeth and the whole Johnson O'Keefe team to anyone going through custody matters. Elizabeth, Cassidy, and Paola were amazing, and made me feel like i was a friend, not just a client. I would happily use them again if needed.

Working with her was such a wonderful experience, kept our goals at the top of every conversation, knew all points and avenues that we could take, never lead us in the wrong direction They worked tirelessly on my case and the outcome was exactly what I expected! I would recommend this firm to anyone who is going through a family law issue.
