Family Law Attorneys in Cranston

More Than 25 Years Guiding Cranston Clients Through Family Law

Family disputes rarely stay confined to one issue. A divorce can affect parenting arrangements, child support, property division, alimony, and each person’s financial future. We help Cranston clients understand how these concerns connect so decisions in one area don’t undermine priorities in another.

We begin by reviewing your goals, family circumstances, finances, parenting concerns, and any existing agreements or court orders. From there, we explain the potential paths through negotiation, mediation, or court proceedings and address urgent concerns within the broader case strategy.

Discuss your family law concerns with our firm. Call (401) 305-2934 to schedule a confidential consultation.

One Strategy for Connected Family Law Matters

We handle matters ranging from the end of a marriage to disputes involving children, finances, and changes to existing orders. Our approach accounts for how these issues affect one another rather than treating each concern as a separate case.

Our representation includes:

  • Divorce and legal separation: We address the legal, financial, and parenting questions involved in changing a marital relationship.
  • Child custody and relocation: We represent parents in disputes involving custody, parenting plans, parenting time, and proposed moves with a child.
  • Child support and alimony: We address financial support in divorce, parentage, and post-judgment proceedings.
  • Property division: We guide clients through questions involving marital assets, debts, and supporting financial records.
  • Adoption and paternity: We handle proceedings that establish or legally recognize important family relationships.
  • Modifications: We represent clients seeking or opposing changes to court orders when circumstances have changed.
  • Military divorce: We handle divorces involving military families and the additional legal and financial considerations they may present.

We pursue negotiated resolutions when productive discussions can settle material terms. Mediation, in which a neutral third party helps both sides work toward an agreement, may resolve questions about parenting schedules, support, property, and other disputed issues. When the parties can’t reach an agreement or court intervention is necessary, we represent clients in litigation.

Rhode Island Family Court Proceedings

The Rhode Island Family Court has subject-matter jurisdiction, or legal authority, over divorce petitions and related issues involving property distribution, alimony, support, and child custody. It also handles adoption, paternity, and separate maintenance matters. Procedures, evidence, filing requirements, and available remedies vary with the type of case and its facts.

We practice within Rhode Island’s family law and court system and serve clients throughout the state. For Cranston residents, this experience allows us to identify the documents, disputed issues, and procedural steps that may shape a case once we understand the circumstances.

    “They've made the divorce process a breeze.”
    Don and Karissa have been nothing short of spectacular. Any questions I've had, were answered in depth, any issue we came across, was resolved almost immediately. They've made the divorce process a breeze on their end. I cannot recommend Moyer Law enough!

    “This is the lawyer to hire.”
    This is the lawyer to hire. He's my husband's lawyer and we have a complex custody/safety issue concerning his boys. Don was the only one willing to help. He's been honest, persistent, professional, and pays great attention to detail. Got us the results we desired when no one thought we had a chance. We aren't just a paycheck or a faceless stack of papers, he has been passionate and fully involved with our case. He helped everyone to see what has been ignored by too many for too long. This guy is a true advocate. I cannot thank you enough for everything so far. You will forever be a part of our family's story. You're the reason our family can have peace of mind again.

    “Dedication and Intelligence”
    Don Moyer and Karissa went above and beyond with their assistance in an international divorce case. Their professionalism, caring and patience were outstanding. From virtual meetings, telephone calls and texts, everything was completed in a timely manner including preparation for a virtual court hearing. I would highly recommend this firm and Don Moyer as a lawyer with compassion and intelligence.

    “Don Moyer is extremely good at what he does.”
    Don Moyer is extremely good at what he does. Honest and willing to help in any way he can. I have so very much appreciation for his compassion and support. From helping to get my finances straightened out to finalizing documents, he was my calm when I was within the storm. It is with a grateful heart that I highly recommend Don and his team.

    “Don is THE lawyer to have in your corner when it comes to family law, custody, child support, you name it!”
    Don is THE lawyer to have in your corner when it comes to family law, custody, child support, you name it! Don became a part of our family. He made himself available to me day and night for our two-year "fight". I had the utmost respect for Don, and so did the entire court system here in RI. He made me feel 100% comfortable discussing my personal life with him and he made sure he did everything he could to get me all I needed and requested of him. I would gladly refer family and friends to Mr Moyer!

    “The best of the best”
    If you are looking for a lawyer that fights for you, who means what he says, who is not only extremely professional but also personable, Attorney Moyer is that lawyer. I recently hired Attorney Moyer to handle my custody case, and I was extremely impressed by how realistic he was, how insightful he was, and how dedicated he was to my case. Attorney Moyer fought for me, and after switching my attorney to Attorney Moyer, the first court date that he represented me at I was awarded sole custody. I couldn?t believe how much he got done in one day, I?m still in shock. If you?re looking for the best of the best, this attorney is the right attorney for you.
