Law Firm Overview

I founded the law firm of Lynette Silon-Laguna, P.A. in 1997 to provide professional, informed, and dependable representation with an emphasis on amicable resolution of family law issues, including divorce, child custody, child visitation, child support, adoptions, stepparent adoptions and name changes. 

Furthermore, we have the experience to assist you if you are overwhelmed with debt and need a solution.  As property is divided in divorce, and one household is divided into two, divorce somethines has the unexpected consequence of serious financial issues which may lead to bankruptcy, foreclosure or other debt relief remedies. 

Even if you are not going through a divorce, if your debt is unmanageable, you are threatened by home or business foreclosure, or if you have any questions regarding restructuring consumer or business debt unrelated to bankrupcy, I, my associate attorneys and legal staff, provide experienced Chapter 7, Chapter 11, or Chapter 13 bankruptcy law legal services. 

We provide personal, professional representation tailored to resolve your individual circumstances.  I understand the emotional and financial costs of litigation and my goal for my firm is to resolve your case in the most expeditious and cost-effective manner possible the following legal matters:

• Divorce, including military personnel, uncontested and contested
• Child custody, visitation, and support (children's issues whether married or not)
• Paternity determinations
• Alimony, maintenance, support
• Distribution of assets and liabilities
• Pre-nuptial and post-nuptial (marital) agreements
• Modification and enforcement of final judgments
• Bankrupcy, foreclosure and debt relief
• Adoptions
• Stepparent adoptions
• Name changes

Although I strive for an amicable resolution of a divorce and family law case, there are circumstances where it is not possible to resolve the client's case amicably. Under these circumstances, my team will aggressively represent you to attain the best result to which you are legally entitled. We will advise you as to the law regarding your issues and we will not mislead you if you desire an outcome which is not legally possible. Our first priority is to obtain a result for you which is in your best interest and legally obtainable. Our contact with you is in a casual, yet professional manner and we will always represent you in a professional and ethical manner with the Court and all parties involved in the case.
