Welcome to the website of Pete Lineberger, matrimonial and family law attorney. If you are seeking experienced, intelligent legal representation for your circumstances in a separation or dissolution of an intimate or marital relationship, or if you need support, have property to divide, or children in need of a plan for care and parenting, then you have found the right lawyer. Pete and his staff serve your needs in court cases and mediation for:

• divorce, separation, domestic partner dissolution, and annulment;
• spousal maintenance (alimony) and child support;
• property and debt division between spouses and domestic partners, including complex arrangements and business valuations - private, government and military retirement rights - and division of other employee benefits;
• parenting plans arising from divorce, domestic partnerships, and other unions, and involving non-parents who may have been raising children under various circumstances;
• complex jurisdictional disputes concerning interstate and international child custody and support issues, military cases, and personal jurisdiction;
• parentage (paternity) determinations involving parenting arrangements and support;
• modifications concerning all of these matters, post-decree/post-judgment.
• pre-marital planning, counseling, and advice, including pre-marital (pre-nuptial) contracts.

Pete Lineberger has over thirty years' experience in all areas of matrimonial law. Based on this extensive knowledge of how to manage a family case, he has adopted several principles which he employs in his advocacy for all clients:

• give the maximum personal attention required for the circumstances; clients are not sent off to an inexperienced lawyer.
• listen carefully to his clients' needs and preferences.
• show and explain every kind of option in the case so that clients can choose the right strategy to meet real goals.
• settle differences and problems in the manner the client wants, not according to the dictates of the opposing party.
• most cases will be resolved without a final trial, through negotiations or mediation; but when a trial is necessary, counsel and represent his clients vigorously.
• give his clients thorough, complete legal advice, along with intimate knowledge of the workings of the local  superior courts, practically and procedurally.

 Pete's primary goal is to be of service to his clients. Please review this website further for more information to determine if the services of Pete Lineberger are right for you.
