Shaw Lewenz’s Marital and Family Law Practice represents clients in sensitive, high-stakes family disputes involving divorce, parenting, support, enforcement, modification, and related family court proceedings. These matters are deeply personal, but they often have significant financial, business, and reputational consequences.
The firm brings a unique skill set to marital and family law matters involving complex assets, closely held companies, professional practices, real estate holdings, investment interests, trusts, executive compensation, deferred compensation, stock options, family wealth, and other sophisticated financial structures. Because of its award-winning Commercial Litigation and Business Transactions Practice Groups, when a family law dispute intersects with business ownership, transfers, or reorganization, valuation issues, shareholder or partner disputes, estate planning, or asset protection, Shaw Lewenz’s Marital and Family Law Practice Group is positioned to address those issues in-house with the focus and urgency they require.
Whenever possible, the firm works to resolve matters efficiently and discreetly through negotiation, mediation, and carefully structured settlement agreements, which again often benefit from collaboration with the firm’s other practice groups. But when litigation is necessary, Shaw Lewenz is prepared to advocate in court and try the case.
The practice also assists clients with prenuptial agreements, postnuptial agreements, marital settlement agreements, parenting plans, cohabitation agreements, and post-judgment issues. Whether a client is preparing for marriage, navigating divorce, protecting children, dividing assets, or enforcing an existing order, Shaw Lewenz works to protect the client’s rights, privacy, and long-term interests.
