Phoenix and Scottsdale Divorce Lawyer Serving Families for Over 15 Years

Family law attorney Paula Burnstein has the experience to handle all of your family law needs, including:

  • Divorce A divorce, with or without children, is one of the most stressful times in a person's life. People have many questions and concerns during a divorce. What will happen to my medical insurance? Who will be awarded the family home? How will I pay my bills? A skilled family law attorney will help answer these questions and provide the help you need to protect your rights. Call 623-486-9797 to schedule a free initial consultation by telephone.
  • Collaborative divorce The emotional strain of divorce can take its toll on both adults and children. Collaborative divorce offers an amicable divorce method where parties can seek creative solutions to delicate issues, such as child custody or complex property division, without the threat of trial.
  • Alimony/spousal maintenance Spousal maintenance is a complex issue that is determined on a case-by-case basis and is not awarded in every case. When the parties cannot agree the court will consider many factors to determine if support should be awarded, how much should be awarded, and for how long.
  • Custody Finding the right attorney can make a huge difference in a child custody case. Maricopa County family law attorney Paula Burnstein has more than 15 years of experience in family law and is a divorced parent herself. She also has a master's degree in education in counseling, so she has a keen understanding of family dynamics.
  • Child support If you or a family member is not receiving adequate child support, contact the law offices of Paula J. Burnstein, P.C. If you or a loved one is paying more child support than you can afford, call 623-486-9797 for a free initial consultation by telephone.
  • Orders of protection Victims of domestic abuse may need the protection offered by an order of protection (OP). If your spouse or partner has engaged in acts of violence or threats of violence against you or your children, a court can issue an OP prohibiting your spouse or partner from contacting you or your children.
  • International child custody issues When a parent suddenly moves a child to another country, the other parent can suffer greatly, as can the non-moving parent's relationship with the child. The Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction is an international treaty designed to expedite the return of abducted children — or allegedly abducted children — to their home country or to ensure parenting time between the child and the non-custodial parent. International child custody cases are extremely delicate and can have a grave impact on the child(ren) involved if not handled with considerable compassion and a focus on what is best for the child. It is important to work with an experienced attorney who understands the magnitude of such cases.
  • Non-parent custody and visitation — Grandparents have rights to visit their grandchildren in certain situations. If you are a grandparent being denied access to your grandchildren, an experienced family law lawyer can help. Paula Burnstein also has experience in cases involving custody for non-parents.
