Areas of Practice

Family Law

 

Divorce   

If you want a divorce, you will get one. If your spouse wants a divorce and you don’t, they will get one. Hawaii is a no-fault state. If one party wants out there is going to be divorce.

Children 

Don’t fool yourself, children are adversely affected when parents separate whether in a divorce or a paternity. If the parents cannot agree on how to share the children, the court will decide. Hawaii law states: “Custody should be awarded to either parent or to both parents according to the best interests of the child, and the court also may consider frequent, continuing, and meaningful contact of each parent with the child unless the court finds that a parent is unable to act in the best interest of the child.” What does this mean? Call us for a free initial consultation at (808) 521-6937.

Assets & Debts  

Hawaii follows the partnership model, which means a 50/50 split in the division of the family’s assets and debts but with some important exceptions. Depending on your own financial situation this can be very simple or very complicated.

  4. Don’t wait to call us for a free case evaluation (808) 521-6937

  5.   Do not be bamboozled by an insurance adjuster who calls and tries to get you to settle.

Criminal Defense

 

Scared?

Don’t Know What to Do?

If you have any interaction with law enforcement, state or federal, whether a felony or a misdemeanor, call us IMMEDIATELY. You have a constitutional right to remain silent and to consult with an attorney. The best choice is to exercise both of these rights and not make any statement to law enforcement without consulting an attorney first. Call us first for a free initial consultation (808) 521-6937.

Business Litigation

 

FRUSTRATED, DISSATISFIED OR PERPLEXED ABOUT A BUSINESS SITUATION?
Business litigation can be very complicated, expensive and unpredictable. Very often the dispute is over a contract or agreement, written or verbal.

As always, the earlier you consult with an attorney the better chance you have of a favorable outcome at lower cost.

The longer you wait, the more likely it is that you'll make a mistake, say something or do something that prejudices your position.

The best practice is to call us for a free initial consultation at (808) 521-6937 as soon as your problem arises.
