On Your Side and Protecting Your Interests in Your Time of Crisis
The break-up of a family can be one of the most difficult times in any person's life. You are likely concerned about how your life will change, from the time you will have with your children to how everyday bills will be paid, and you may be unsure about the legal process ahead.
My name is Ululani (Lani) Akiona, I am a family law lawyer and I understand what you are going through. I will walk you through your divorce, child custody proceedings and a variety of other family law matters, explaining the process to you and making sure that your interests are fully protected.
I am here to guide you through the divorce process. You are not alone. Contact me at my Everett, Washington office at 425-512-9161 to schedule an initial consultation. We can discuss your options and I will help you understand the legal process.
A Caring and Thoughtful Approach to Family Law
As the mother of two young children, I know the importance of building and maintaining relationships with your kids; this is often the focal point of divorce cases. In every case, especially those involving children, I encourage the parties involved to work together to find a solution that everyone can agree upon. You will likely be parenting with your ex-spouse long after your divorce is finalized and your children will benefit from a custody agreement that you and your ex-spouse have created and agreed upon, rather than one that was created by a judge.
However, I understand that in some cases, a more aggressive approach may be necessary. As your legal representative, I will make sure that you are not being taken advantage of and help you to understand the legal reasons behind the steps we are taking. If an agreement disposing of all issues cannot be reached and it is necessary to take a case to trial, I can provide you with effective representation. As a former prosecutor, I have done countless jury and judge trials and I am just as comfortable representing your interests in the courtroom as at the negotiating table.
