Services
We are committed to helping families pursue successful adoptions through knowledgeable legal guidance. Whether the adoption involves a foster child, a family member, a stepparent, or a private arrangement, we provide assistance tailored to the situation. We walk clients through paperwork and procedural requirements. Our goal is to support families throughout the adoption journey until it is finalized.
We assist individuals facing divorce by offering personalized legal support and practical guidance throughout the matter. Our goal is to help clients understand the process, evaluate their options, and make informed decisions. Mediation can provide a flexible and private path toward settlement, and we frequently explore that avenue first. When needed, we also handle contested divorce litigation.
We represent parents in child custody matters with a strong commitment to protecting their role in their children's lives. Custody disputes can be difficult and emotionally demanding, which is why we provide steady support throughout the process. Our experience covers many aspects of custody law. Every case receives personalized attention designed to address the client's specific needs and goals.
Our mediation services are designed to support clients seeking alternatives to courtroom litigation. We know that family law disputes can place significant emotional and financial pressure on individuals and families. Through mediation, we help parties work toward mutually acceptable outcomes. This approach often lowers conflict and can be more affordable than court proceedings.

Ms. Shemesh has maintained a 5-star Avvo rating over the course of 9 years practicing law. The fact that a sudden influx of negative reviews is stemming from misinformation regarding an ongoing case shows the lack of proper education in those whom are leaving said reviews. Do your research before attempting to harm someone’s business, or better yet further harming the child involved by spreading information that isn’t accurate.
