Family Court representation

Few legal matters touch what you care about more directly than a family court case, especially when it involves child custody and visitation. Cercone Law PLLC guides parties through family court cases — including custody, visitation, and spousal support — with practical advocacy focused on protecting what matters most to their family.


Family court cases are personal in a way that other legal matters aren't, and the outcome significantly shapes day-to-day life for you and your children long after the case concludes. Jake Cercone works closely with each client to understand what's truly at stake and to advocate for an outcome that safeguards their relationships with their family, while keeping the process as steady and manageable as possible during a challenging time.

Happy family enjoying outdoors with children playing on parents' shoulders.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at info@cerconelaw.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

New York courts decide custody based on the "best interests of the child" standard, weighing factors like each parent's living situation, ability to care for the child, and the child's relationship with each parent. There's no automatic presumption in favor of either parent. We'll walk you through how these factors are likely to apply to your specific situation.


You're not required to have one, but family court decisions have long-lasting consequences for you and your children, and the process has real procedural requirements that are easy to get wrong without guidance. Having experienced representation gives you the best chance of protecting what matters most to you.
