Divorce
At RKPT we help clients navigate the often emotional legal proceedings that revolve around domestic relations matters. We have a deep understanding of how difficult and stressful these times can be and we are dedicated to lessening your burden by providing thoughtful, detailed advice with compassion and responsiveness. We take time to listen to you, address your concerns, and explore your various options. Effective problem solvers, we strive to meet our clientsâ€™ family law needs with solutions that are personalized, practical, and creative.
Child Support
Ohio courts will calculate child support under certain specific guidelines. The law sets basic support schedules that are used to determine the amount of child support, based on the number of children and the combined gross income of the parents, as well as other factors and/or credits. The support schedules are based on the average cost of raising children in households across a wide income range.
Child Custody and Visitation
Parents can avoid taking child custody disputes to court if they can reach an agreement. If both parents share responsibilities, a shared parenting plan may be drafted and filed with the court in lieu of an order for sole custody by one parent.
Adoption
Paternity
Our family law practice handles a wide array of matters, including divorce, dissolution, spousal support, child custody, child support, adoption, paternity suits, and prenuptial and cohabitation agreements. We have obtained favorable outcomes for clients in numerous family law proceedings, many of which involved complex accounting, tax, financial planning, employment benefits, and child custody issues. Should a trial be necessary, our skilled litigators stand ready to step in to advocate on your behalf and ensure that your rights are protected.
Premarital Agreement
Under Ohio law, prenuptial agreements are called â€œantenuptial agreements.â€ To be valid, certain conditions must be met, including: it must be entered into without coercion, fraud, or duress; the terms must not encourage divorce; and there must have been a full disclosure of the nature and value of each spouseâ€™s property.
Guardianship
If a loved one is no longer able to make decisions for themselves, they made need someone to assist them through a guardianship or conservatorship. By establishing a guardianship or conservatorship, you can assist your loved one in making financial, healthcare, and other life decisions.
Spousal Support
A divorce is a civil lawsuit to end a marriage. The parties to a divorce ask the court to make final decisions concerning property division, spousal support, and matters regarding minor children. Most divorce cases are eventually settled by agreement. A proposed divorce decree is prepared, signed by the parties, and submitted to the court for approval. After a short hearing, the agreement is approved by the judge and becomes a court order. If the parties cannot resolve all of their disputed issues, evidence is presented in a contested trial, and then the judge or magistrate issues a decision.

DUI/DWI
Some car accidents are the result of a simple mistake, such as failure to stop at a stop sign, an improper lane change, or driving too fast. Others are caused by drunk driving, drowsy driving, or distracted driving, speeding, faulty parts, or weather conditions.
Wrongful Death
If someone you love was killed because someone else was negligent, you and your family may be able to file a claim for wrongful death.
Traffic Violations
Sex Crimes
Prior to joining the firm, Sarah worked as a victim’s advocate for survivors of sexual assault, and at the Ohio Innocence Project–experiences that fostered her ability to identify the specific needs of her clients and advocate on their behalf.
Fraud
Assault
Restraining Order
Obtained temporary restraining order, preliminary and permanent injunction, money damages, and award of attorney’s fees on behalf of corporate client in matters involving the breach of restrictive covenants and trade secret violations by an independent contractor (QFS Transp., LLC v.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
RKPT attorneys have decades of experience advising clients on their estate planning needs. After a thorough consultation to determine your goals and needs, an estate planning attorney will create a customized estate plan to help you and your family meet your financial goals and leave a legacy to the people you care about, while minimizing estate and wealth transfer taxes.
Wills
Probate estate administration is the process by which the probate court reviews and approves a personâ€™s Last Will and Testament and oversees distribution of the assets held in the deceased personâ€™s name alone after their death. Assets held by the deceased person without effective beneficiary designations must pass through probate, regardless of whether the person died with or without a Will.
Trusts
When a person has used a trust as part of their estate plan, assets can be titled in the trust or transferred to the trust by beneficiary designations. Trust assets do not pass through probate court; however, the trust must still be administered. Trust administration is a private process by which trust assets are transferred according to the terms of the trust after the death of the trust-maker.
Power of Attorney
A Financial Power of Attorney appoints someone else to make financial and business decisions for you if you are unavailable or lack the capacity to make them yourself.
Probate
