Attorney Profiles
Christopher Yannon, Esq.
We created this site to provide basic introductory information to those considering divorce or separation, as well as custody and support, or those with questions about prenuptial agreements, etc. Our hope is that users realize that, although this information is helpful, there is no substitute for a consultation with an attorney. Every situation is unique and the financial implications of a decision made can be both serious and long term.
