Family Law

Divorce - When a marriage ends in divorce it is imperative to address legal issues of custody and property division while being sensitive to the emotions each client experiences in going through the dissolution of their marriage.

With collective experience of over fifty years in family law, McConnell & Sneed, LLC strives to give each client the best advice regarding options of settlement and probable outcomes in trial so that the client can make informed decisions regarding their children and assets.

Custody - In deciding custody, the Courts look to the "best interests" of the children. McConnell & Sneed, LLC tries to guide their clients to do the same. In custody disputes, McConnell & Sneed, LLC has successfully helped men and women obtain custody through thorough preparation, use of outside resources such as guardians ad litem and psychological evaluations when appropriate, and tenacious advocacy both in and out of the Courtroom.
