Family Law Attorney in Rapides Parish, Louisiana

We understand that family law matters are particularly challenging for clients. Louisiana laws in this area are designed to protect the interests of children as well as rights of parents, but legal arrangements involving personal and family matters are often complicated by personal history and emotions. This can leave everyone feeling angry and confused. However, the right family law attorney can address the needs of the family and help everyone move to the next phase of their lives.

At The Law Firm of Rocky Willson, we sit down and work our clients to determine the circumstances of the case. We then construct an approach that can effectively achieve the needs and goals of the client and his or her family. Attorney Rocky Willson has 40 years’ experience working in the courts as a lawyer with a successful private practice and as an assistant district attorney, but he understands that not every family needs or wants to go to court. Following the lead of our clients and providing honest legal guidance, we can often resolve issues faster and with less expense if we negotiate with the other party.
