For over 25 years, attorney Ward D. Phillips of Leece & Phillips Law Offices, S.C., has represented clients in specific areas of his family law practice, including:

Children in need of protection and services

What to Expect
First, there is a "cooling off" period of 120 days, giving you time to get the facts you need and prepare for a process that, at times, will be emotional. Court procedures can be confusing and there are pitfalls that must be avoided.
Expect to attend at least two hearings at a minimum, providing documentation and financial information that the court expects. Securing legal advice prior to those court appearances is paramount. You have important choices to make and you do not want to have regrets later.
