Family Law/Domestic Relations

Our family law practice deals with many different areas of the law and subject matters. We handle cases regarding common law marriages, premarital agreements, dissolutions of marriage, paternity, child custody, child visitation, child support, post-secondary education subsidies, property divisions, alimony, and modifications of existing domestic relations orders. We pride ourselves in creating a compassionate environment for our clients while working zealously to represent their interests. While many cases can be resolved through mediation and negotiation, we are always ready and able to represent our clients zealously at court hearings and trials, including appeals.

Estate Planning/Probate

At Day Rettig Martin, P.C., we will help you with all of your estate planning and probate needs. We can counsel and assist in the preparation of an estate plan for you that may include the preparation of a Last Will and Testament, a general power of attorney, a medical power of attorney, a living will (i.e., a declaration regarding life-sustaining devices), and a declaration regarding disposition of remains. We can also assist in the preparation of a trust or in the creation of a guardianship or conservatorship. Whether it is estate planning or the probating of estates, whether testate or intestate, we stand ready to assist you so that your goals can be fostered.

Labor & Employment Law

Whether you are an employee, prospective employee, or employer, we want to help you with all of your labor law needs. We work with clients who have been wrongfully terminated, or dealt with issues of discrimination, safety concerns, taxation, record-keeping, and more. This is a complicated area of law, and we want to help you maneuver through it.

Part of what makes us unique is our niche practice area focus in Multi-Employer Plans and high-end bankruptcy matters. We also provide strong legal counsel and representation for a number of other practice areas.
