  Comprehensive Representation in Florida Divorce Cases

  Whether your divorce is simple or complex, amicable or hostile, or coming after a brief or lengthy marriage, Esteban Santana Law is here for you with practical advice, legal counseling, and effective representation in child custody, child support, alimony, property division, and other matters related to your divorce. Whether working out a marital settlement agreement, settling differences in mediation, or litigating in court, our family law attorney has the skills and experience needed to guide you through the process and help you start a new chapter in your life.

  Practical Advice in Florida Paternity Actions

  Paternity is the legal process necessary to establish who a child’s legal father is, a status that goes undetermined if the parents are not married when the child is born. A child’s legal father has the right to seek custody and visitation, as well as a legal obligation to provide child support. If you are seeking or opposing paternity as a mother, putative father, child, husband, or other interested party, we can help you understand your rights and provide strong, effective representation in the Hillsborough County courts.

  Forceful Advocacy in Domestic Violence Allegations

  If you or your children are threatened with or experiencing domestic violence, get to a safe place and call 911, the National Domestic Violence Hotline (800-799-7233), or Esteban Santana Law. We can help you obtain a protective order to prevent the abusive person from having any contact with you. Likewise, if you feel you are being wrongly accused of domestic violence, we can represent you before a permanent order is put in place. Domestic violence injunctions can have serious consequences on a pending divorce, child custody dispute, or other family law matter.

  Insightful Assistance in Drafting, Enforcing, or Challenging Prenuptial Agreements

  A prenuptial agreement is a valuable tool that helps couples start their marriage with a clear understanding of financial assets and obligations, as well as expectations should something alter the marriage, whether it be death, divorce, or another event. Our knowledgeable and compassionate family law attorney can help you negotiate, draft, review, or challenge a prenuptial agreement as needed.

  Skilled and Knowledgeable Help With Parental and Grandparent Rights

  Grandparents sometimes find their ability to spend time with or communicate with their grandchildren cut off by the child’s parent(s). A grandparent’s right to visitation can differ depending on whether the child’s parents are married, divorced, never married, or if one parent has died or deserted the child. The judge must also be convinced visitation is in the child’s best interests. If you are a grandparent seeking a relationship with your grandchildren or a parent needing to assert your rights, call Esteban Santana Law in Brandon for a free consultation.

  Advice and Assistance With Annulment or Divorce

  Divorce is the official dissolution of a legal marriage; annulment recognizes that a legal marriage never took place. Annulments are only available for limited reasons that render a marriage void or voidable. Even when an annulment is available, divorce may also be an option. Call our office to discuss the best route for your situation.

  Moving Forward With Name Change Legal Motions

  Changing your name or your children’s names is a legal process that must be done carefully and correctly. We can guide you through the name change process after divorce or anytime it is legally justified.

  Uniting Families Through Adoption

  Adopting your spouse’s children is a wonderful way to strengthen family bonds. Adoption creates rights for the child and spouse while affecting the parental rights of the child’s biological parent. We provide guidance, technical assistance, and representation throughout the adoption process.
