Skilled Support, Strong Representation
Family law covers divorce and child custody matters. We assist our clients by easing concerns about the legal process and safeguarding both their finances and their families.
When I describe my work, I say I’m a divorce attorney. This clearly conveys that I handle divorce and child custody cases.
The term “family law” is just legal shorthand for “divorce attorney.”
It can also refer to an attorney who assists with divorce, paternity, and child custody matters.
In some cases, “family law attorney” may also involve handling adoptions. As an adoptive father, I have a personal connection to adoption, but we don’t take on those cases because they are too emotionally close for me. They resonate too deeply with my own experience.

Protective Orders to Safeguard Your Rights and Safety
Protective orders, also known as restraining orders, are legal tools designed to protect individuals from harassment, abuse, or threats by placing legal restrictions on the abuser’s actions. In Arizona, these orders are particularly important in cases involving domestic violence, stalking, or other forms of abuse.
If you find yourself in a situation where you need protection, obtaining a protective order can be a critical step in ensuring your safety and the safety of your loved ones. The process typically begins by filing a petition with the court, detailing the nature of the threats or abuse you have experienced. Once the court reviews your petition, they may issue a temporary protective order, providing immediate protection while your case is further evaluated.
A protective order can include various provisions, such as prohibiting the abuser from contacting you, coming near your home, workplace, or school, and in some cases, removing the abuser from a shared residence. These orders are enforceable by law, and violating a protective order can result in criminal charges.
At Brown Family Law, we understand the emotional and legal complexities involved in seeking a protective order. We are here to guide you through the process, ensuring that your rights are upheld and that you receive the protection you need. Whether you are facing threats of violence, harassment, or any form of abuse, our experienced attorneys are committed to helping you secure a protective order that prioritizes your safety and peace of mind.
