Family Law Attorneys for Divorce, Custody, Support & Agreements in New York City
Kleyman Law Firm is a New York City family law firm. Our family law attorneys handle every stage of divorce and the family matters that come with it — in the Supreme and Family Courts of all five boroughs, and out of court wherever possible.
Family law covers far more than divorce. We handle contested and uncontested divorce, including high-net-worth divorces involving businesses, real estate and executive compensation; child custody and parenting time; child support; alimony and spousal maintenance; prenuptial and postnuptial agreements; and LGBTQ+ divorce and family law. We resolve most cases through negotiation and mediation, and we are ready for court when a high-conflict divorce requires it.

Contested Divorce
When spouses disagree on property, support or the children, we negotiate from a fully prepared case and try it when settlement isn’t possible.

Uncontested Divorce
When you agree on everything, we draft the settlement agreement and file the papers, usually without a court appearance.

High Net Worth Divorce
Valuing and dividing businesses, real estate, investments and executive compensation.

Child Support
Establishing, modifying and enforcing child support under New York’s Child Support Standards Act, including income above the statutory cap.

Child Custody
Parenting plans, custody and parenting-time disputes, relocation and modification, all decided on the best interests of the child.

Spousal Support
Temporary and post-divorce maintenance (alimony): the statutory formula, how long it lasts, and when a court departs from it.

Prenuptial & Postnuptial Agreements
Drafting, reviewing and negotiating agreements built to be enforced, and challenging or defending them in a divorce.

LGBTQ+ Divorce & Family Law
Divorce, custody and parentage issues for LGBTQ+ spouses and parents.

Fathers’ Rights
Custody, parenting time, paternity and support for fathers. New York law gives neither parent a preference.

High-Conflict Divorce
Emergency applications, enforcement of court orders and contempt when the other side won’t cooperate.
