The family law attorneys at Howland Hess O'Connell have appeared in many jurisdictions. Located in Huntingdon Valley, our office location provides an easy commute to Montgomery, Bucks, Philadelphia, and Camden County courthouses.

Often times the initial conference in a family law matter will occur right in the home of the client.
Given the significance of the outcome in a custody and/or child support action, it is important for the client to engage counsel as soon as the family dynamic has changed. Many parents have forfeited support or other benefits for periods of time during which they were trying to let things "cool off" or "settle down" only to learn that such patience can result in a loss of financial support.
