Robert C. Finlay, Esq.
Integrity and Dedication
Separation and divorce often result in broken hearts, promises and hurt. If a marriage or union are unable to be corrected, reconciled, then as much planning and attention as was given to prepare for the marriage must be given to its end.
As with a good novel or mystery book, so too do life’s chapters misdirect and change the path of our story and all too often not as one may have hoped or expected. For some, a bump in the road is easily patched. For others, the road becomes impassable.
The division of property, care & custody of children and pets, finances, health & life insurance, pensions & Social Security have to be as carefully redesigned. What was once taken for granted, now has to be choreographed with thought and precision. Couples believing that their maintaining of a good relationship will not require their having an attorney help them through the process. Those couples who are not so fortunate and have a strained relationship, will often set out quickly to get good counsel. Either way, an attorney specializing in divorce offers all parties, in all different scenarios, the expertise to help, guide and hold you through the process in ways you would never be able to do for yourselves.
Attorney Robert Finlay is the person to guide and counsel you during such unexpected times. His professionalism and presence in our local courts afford him respect from opposing attorneys, Clerks of the Court, and judges. He is there to counsel and guide you through these unexpected chapters of your life’s book.
In addition to Family Law, Attorney Finlay also specialized in Chapter 7 Bankruptcy for the last ten years. Sadly, due to Covid 19, many businesses, families and individuals have been affected by the loss of income that they need help to recover. Often, bankruptcies attach themselves to divorces as well. Having someone who can assist you with both, if needed, makes Rob a 1-stop advocate for you and your life.
It may be time to write a new life’s book. Let Attorney Finlay write your opening so you can pen your future chapters.

Divorce is often regarded as the most difficult period in people’s lives. It has personal, financial, and emotional impacts.

I am dedicated to providing my clients with the highest quality legal representation in cases involving: property settlements, divorce, child support, spousal support, parental custody, and prenuptial agreements.
