What to Expect When You Work With a Franklin, TN Family Law Attorney

Family law matters can feel overwhelming because they affect your children, finances, and future all at once. One of the best ways to reduce stress is to understand the road ahead. At Crosier Family Law, we guide clients through each stage of the process with clear advice, practical options, and a strategy tailored to your goals.

Our Step-by-Step Approach

• Confidential case review: We listen to your situation, identify urgent concerns (children, safety, finances), and explain your options under Tennessee law.
• Plan and priorities: We help you define what matters most—parenting time, stability, protecting assets, or reaching a faster resolution.
• Document preparation: From petitions and financial disclosures to proposed parenting plans, we ensure paperwork is accurate and complete.
• Negotiation and settlement: Many cases resolve through negotiation or mediation. We work to reach fair terms while keeping your long-term interests in focus.
• Court representation when needed: If litigation is unavoidable, we prepare thoroughly and advocate for you in hearings and trials.

Ways to Resolve Your Case 

Depending on your circumstances, your matter may be resolved through:

• Mediation: A structured, goal-oriented process that can reduce conflict and costs.
• Negotiated settlement: Attorney-to-attorney discussions to reach workable terms efficiently.
• Litigation: When the other side is unreasonable or safety/parenting issues require court intervention.

Helpful Items to Bring to Your Consultation

• Recent pay stubs, tax returns, and a list of monthly expenses
• Bank statements, retirement accounts, mortgage and debt information
• Any existing court orders or prior filings
• A basic parenting schedule you believe would work best for your child(ren)
• Notes on key dates and concerns (separation date, major assets, important events)
