Paul Battan has the experience to help you with all family law matters: Divorce, legal separation and annulment Divorce (which is known in the state of Washington as “the dissolution of marriage”), legal separation, and annulment (which is known in the state of Washington as a “declaration of invalidity of marriage”) are three separate legal procedures by which marital relationships are ended. We are very experienced in all aspects of these types of cases. Parenting plans, custody and visitation As part of divorce, legal separation or annulment, parenting plans are necessary for the well-being of children. The terms custody and visitation are not generally used in the state of Washington; they are included within the concept of the parenting plan. Parenting plans are specific to each family. They are based on children’s needs and parents’ beliefs about those needs. When parents fail to agree to a parenting plan, a court will order a parenting plan that it believes is in the best interests of the children. Spousal maintenance When one spouse needs financial support during the transition from marriage to separation, and the other spouse can afford to provide it, spousal maintenance may be appropriate for a reasonable length of time. There are no objective standards for computing the amount or duration of spousal maintenance in Washington. For this reason, it is a very challenging issue. Child support Orders of child support are required whenever there are dependent children. Child support in Washington is based on the parents’ incomes and the Washington State Child Support Schedule. Property and debt Property and debt must be identified, valued, and equitably divided, often by special orders such as qualified domestic relations orders (QDROs), which divide pension benefits. We are fully qualified to handle these types of cases. Third party custody Grandparents, aunts, and uncles are more frequently raising their grandchildren, nieces, and nephews. The harsh reality is that some parents’ attraction or addiction to drugs, alcohol, or crime supercedes their ability to parent. In some cases, a parent may be capable of only limited parenting because of his or her own youth or disability. We are experienced in representing relatives who wish to protect a child, while also preserving family relationships, by using a simple power of attorney for the care of a child, by establishing a guardianship of a minor, by filing a legal action for third party custody, or by an open adoption. Adoption Parent-child relationships are of fundamental constitutional importance in American law and are of fundamental social and emotional importance to the parent and to the child. New and permanent parent-child relationships can be formed by adoption.

John works with 7 great lawyers. VSSF has grown from a 2 lawyer firm (Van Siclen & Stocks) to an 8 attorney firm consisting of lawyers who have an excellent reputation of highly competent, aggressive, and reasonable representation. This includes addressing most legal issues one could face: family law, criminal defense, police brutality, civil rights, employment & discrimination law, personal injury, wrongful death, malpractice, and other areas for individuals and businesses. VSSF can take on any opposition, and they often represent people over the course of their "legal life", addressing any legal issues or concerns that may arise. By getting results and closure, clients return to VSSF for help on a variety of issues. Some cases are simple, but most are very highly emotional and stressful for the client. For example, we handled a false arrest case by defending our client at a jury trial; the client was so relieved when the jury came back with a resounding "not guilty" verdict that he began to cry in relief. Later, he asked us to pursue a reverse civil lawsuit for violation of his civil rights and because of police misconduct, resulting in a settlement of six figures. Several years later, that same client got in a car accident and asked VSSF to address it (not his fault), settling the case promptly and for 4 times what the insurance company offered him. He then asked for Estate Planning help, and VSSF finished his Will and helped him incorporate his business. Same with Family Law: it can be emotional and difficult, and our goal at our law firm is to make any case (divorce, custody, child support) not only something that involves a finite, clear process that has closure, but puts a party back on his/her feet to pursue the rest of their lives. Also, Personal Injury cases can be painful for most clients who suffer catastrophic injuries (car accidents, wrongful death, malpractice, employment discrimination). Our goal is to focus on the legal issues while our clients do their best to heal. Studies show that a victim of a personal injury receive 3 times the normal settlement with insurance companies than those without a lawyer (studies done by the insurance defense bar). Criminal charges cause the most stress & at first, clients only see a dark and hopeless future. Our known success reaches back many years with a high percentage of not guilty acquittals. This causes prosecutors to offer better deals. Not all clients have multiple legal issues and focus must be on reducing them. VSSF makes sure that you feel comfortable coming in to the firm to ask about any issue involving the law.
