Family Law

Trusted Guidance For Sensitive Family Law Matters

The term “family law” broadly encompasses a host of issues, including marriage, adoption, divorce, custody, paternity, domestic violence and, in many cases, estate planning. At the Franklin County firm of Gillespie Law, LLC, we take the view that there is nothing more important than family relationships, and that family law is a valuable tool in regulating these relationships, keeping them fair and honest under the law.

Our founder, attorney Ross Gillespie, has been practicing family law from the very beginning of his law career. Our legal team appreciates how difficult it is to bring private matters to court, which is why we work diligently to protect you while aggressively seeking to represent your interests.

If it is important to you and your family, it is important to us at Gillespie Law, LLC.
