Attorney in Cleveland, Ohio
Over 30 Years of Experience Handling Custody and Visitation Issues
If you are a party to a divorce that involves minor children, you understand the emotional issues involved in decisions about custody and visitation. As a parent, you want what is best for your minor child, but you also want to play a meaningful role in choices about medical care, education and religious training. You want an experienced lawyer to protect your interests, one who has successfully helped others establish and implement custody and visitation arrangements that are in the best interests of the minor children while protecting their rights as parents.
At the law offices of Ellen S. Mandell, I bring extensive experience to men and women throughout Cuyahoga County who have issues involving child custody or visitation. Over the last three decades, I have built a successful practice based on a commitment to personal service, earning a reputation among my peers and former clients as an honest and trustworthy advocate. Your needs and interests will always be my priority. Contact me by e-mail or call 216-771-7080 to schedule a free initial consultation.
Under Ohio law, the best interests of minor children must be the primary concern when custody and visitation plans are established. I work closely with men and women to employ a practical approach to custody and visitation, helping parents focus on the needs of their children. Often, that involves working with parents to help them see custody and visitation issues from the perspective of their children and getting them to recognize that custody and visitation are more about the child's time with the parent than the parent's time with the child. This approach allows for more flexibility as the children grow up and priorities change.
I recognize that every case is different and work closely with you to identify the unique circumstances presented by your case. Together, we will work to find creative ways to allow your children the opportunity to meet their own needs while maximizing the parent-child relationship.
