Comprehensive Family Law Services For Southern Ohio Residents

Family law issues affect every aspect of your personal and financial life. At The Law Firm of Richard M. Lewis, we provide comprehensive legal support for families across Southern Ohio and guide clients through emotionally difficult decisions with clarity and practical direction.

Our family law services include:

  • Divorce: We help clients navigate contested and uncontested divorces, including property division, debt allocation, retirement account issues and support matters.
  • Child custody and visitation: We assist parents in developing parenting plans, custody schedules and visitation arrangements that reflect the child’s best interests, school needs and family routines.
  • Child support: Our attorneys help establish fair support orders under Ohio guidelines and represent clients in enforcement and modification proceedings when income, parenting time or family circumstances change.
  • Spousal support: Whether you are requesting support or responding to a claim, we present the financial and lifestyle factors Ohio courts consider, including income disparities, length of marriage and earning capacity.
  • Guardianships: We represent families seeking guardianship of elderly parents or minor children when legal authority is necessary for medical decisions, care planning or financial management, often during urgent and sensitive situations.
  • Post-decree modifications and enforcement: When circumstances change after a court order is entered, we help clients seek modifications for custody, support or visitation and take action when existing orders are not being followed.

Each matter receives focused attention and practical legal guidance aimed at reducing unnecessary conflict while protecting your rights and your family’s future.
