Family Law Cases in Winston-Salem

Family law cases often involve personal, emotional, and high-stakes issues, such as divorce, child custody or visitation, spousal support, separation agreements, and more. 

We understand just how much you’ll need to consider and balance when going through a family law conflict. While we are working on your case, we’ll try to secure the outcomes that you want while also respecting the sensitivity of the situation, so you feel seen and heard.

People in Winston-Salem trust us with their family law cases because we offer:

  • Compassionate guidance: From your first meeting, we take time to listen to your concerns, priorities, and goals. We don’t just explain the law; we help you understand what each step means for your life, your children, and your future.
  • Amicable approaches: We strive to resolve family disputes through negotiation, mediation, or other collaborative methods when appropriate. Working towards solutions that minimize conflict often leads to better outcomes and brighter future family dynamics, especially when children are involved.
  • Strong courtroom representation: When peaceful resolution won’t work for one reason or another, or when legal protections require court intervention, we are ready and able to litigate on your behalf. We will build your case, protect your rights, and guide you through every procedural step.

Clear, Supportive Planning for Elder Law Cases

Aging, health care decisions, and asset protection are all matters that demand thoughtful planning. They also require you to understand how North Carolina elder law could influence those plans. Come to Collins Family & Elder Law Group, where we make elder law approachable by removing legal confusion and presenting clear options and support.

We like to simplify the elder law process through:

  • Plain language and honest advice: We explain elder law terms, options, and consequences in a straightforward way. Whether it’s advance directives, durable powers of attorney, guardianship, or long-term care planning, we walk you through what’s involved.
  • Preventive and responsive planning: We can help you make plans before a crisis and adjust them when needed. From preparing wills or trusts to navigating Medicaid eligibility or arranging for future care, we're here both proactively and in urgent situations.
  • Support when life changes quickly: Sudden health shifts, financial concerns, or family disputes can arise without warning. When they do, you’ll want a legal team that responds with compassion and urgency like we do.
