Why Choose Krasner Law?

Our approach begins with listening. Family law matters are personal, and no two clients have the same concerns. We take time to learn about your family, finances, goals, and urgent needs.
Clear communication is central to our work. Court rules and legal terms can be confusing. We explain each stage in direct language so you can take an active role in your case.
Preparation also matters. We help clients organize financial records, parenting information, messages, agreements, and court orders. A clear record can make settlement talks more focused and help present your position.

We also consider the long-term effect of proposed terms. A custody plan, support order, or property agreement may shape your life for years. Our goal is to help you reach practical terms that reflect your priorities.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. How much does a family law attorney cost in Philadelphia?

    The cost depends on the type of case, the amount of conflict involved, and how much work is needed. A simple matter usually costs less than a highly contested case involving custody or major property issues.

  2. What happens during my first consultation?

    Your first consultation is a chance to explain your situation, ask questions, and learn more about your options. It also gives you a better idea of what steps may come next in your case.

  3. How is child custody decided in Pennsylvania?

    Courts look at many factors when deciding custody, including the child’s needs, each parent’s role in the child’s life, stability, and other facts that may affect the child’s best interests.

  4. Can child support be modified later?

    Yes. Support orders can sometimes be changed when there has been a significant change in circumstances, such as income changes, job loss, or changes in the child’s needs.

  5. Do I have to go to court for a divorce?

    Not always. Some divorces are resolved through agreement or mediation, while others require court involvement because the spouses do not agree on key issues.

  6. Is mediation a good option for every family law case?

    Mediation can work well when both sides are willing to participate in good faith. It may not be the best fit when there is serious conflict, fear, or a major power imbalance.

  7. What documents should I bring to a consultation?

    Bring any court papers, financial records, tax returns, custody orders, support orders, and notes about your concerns or goals. The more information you have, the easier it may be to evaluate the situation.
