Attorney Biography
The most difficult cases involve divorce and the custody of minor children, particularly for a father that truly believes that he is the better parent for primary custody, or for a mother who is fighting against a father who has control of the family finances. Ms. Washburn knows that a work injury and loss of income and loss of physical capability of working and supporting a family can also lead to family disharmony. This office is honored to help you with your accident, injury and family problems. We have trained paralegals and associates and try to accommodate all clients as quickly as possible. Divorce Matters: You and your spouse cannot be represented by the same attorney. Ethically, an attorney can only represent the interests of one party. Have your own attorney guide you through this very difficult time of your life while you are making decisions that affect you emotionally and financially. Be aware that the child support guidelines have been radically amended! Custody: What is in the best interests of your children? Consult with an attorney before entering into custodial agreements or litigation in this area. DUI and traffic: Your age now has a direct impact on your driving privileges. Are you under 21? A speeding ticket of 23 mph over the limit can cost your driver's license. Have you had more than one DUI? A second DUI will cause you to have the Interlock Ignition Device placed on your car. In some cases, you must surrender your auto tag. Warning! Call us within 10 days of your DUI arrest to obtain advice to save your license. Personal Injury cases and Workers' Compensation cases: The insurance company for the person or employer that caused your accident or injury already has big law firms on retainer. Call our office and get the information that you need before you ever talk to the insurance adjuster. The adjuster is probably taping your telephone calls.
