Mothers’ Rights Lawyers In Pittsburgh and Allegheny County
PA Mothers’ Rights Attorneys
While the laws and stereotypes are changing to recognize that children of broken relationships and divorce need a meaningful relationship with both parents, this does not downplay what the law has known forever: a mother has a substantial impact on the best interests of the child.
If you are a mother going through a divorce or other custody situation, the law offices of Taybron Law Firm, LLC, is here to protect your rights. Call (412) 231-9786 or toll-free at (412) 231-9786 to schedule an appointment.
The goal of our Pittsburgh custody lawyers is to assist our clients in resolving their custody disputes by negotiations that lead to a settlement agreement rather than the emotional and financial burdens on the client and children that accompany protracted litigation. With skilled legal advice from our Pittsburgh custody lawyers that comes from years of experience of what works and what does not in custody litigation and agreements, most custody cases handled by our Pennsylvania custody attorneys are resolved by agreement of the parents and a written consent order of court.
The legal reality of custody cases is that there has been a shift in the philosophy of many of the family court judges in Western Pennsylvania such that shared physical custody orders are preferable to an award of primary physical custody to either parent. And when both parents are fit parents, when they live in close proximity to each other if the children are of school age, and when they have a minimal degree of cooperation necessary so that effective co-parenting of the minor children is possible, our Pittsburgh mothers’ rights attorneys provide honest legal advice to their clients and advise that a shared custody order is likely in the event of trial. However, when the circumstances do not dictate a shared custody order and the other parent refuses to settle on anything less than shared custody, our Pittsburgh custody attorneys are zealous advocates in the courtroom setting and seek a custody order that is in the best interests of the minor children.
Our law firm is very proud of the success that we have had both in resolving custody disputes by agreement of the parties and, when the circumstances warrant, in providing representation in contested custody cases involving the court process all the way through to a custody trial.

As stated many times throughout this website, the goal of our Pittsburgh law firm is to minimize the financial and emotional burdens upon our clients and their children. We seek to do this by having an understanding of where you may be emotionally and financially when you walk into our office and hopefully sending you home to your family and friends with a level of understanding of the PA family court process and the likely outcome of your Pennsylvania family law case allowing you some piece of mind so that you can move on both emotionally and financially to a new life. In addition, we will also give you a list of referrals to other professionals, if necessary, who can assist you with moving forward to your new life. Our Pittsburgh family law firm has resources to assist our clients both with their emotional and financial future.
Our law firm can offer referrals to mental health professionals to assist a client and their children through their emotional grieving process caused by the loss of a relationship or the stress of the legal process. For our client’s future financial health, we offer referrals to certified public accountants (CPAs) and business valuation experts if your case involves a high income or self-employment situation. We also have referrals to retirement and pension plan appraisers if your case involves retirement valuation issues. For those cases where one party wishes to remain in the marital home, we have employed real estate appraisers to value a home or assisted with the hiring of multi-list realtors when a home is to be sold. We also have referrals to several bankruptcy attorneys that are available to consult with our clients if it appears that the client’s financial situation calls for such advice.
