Family Law

Choosing the right family lawyer in south Louisiana is vital. It’s important to work with attorneys who have a deep understanding of how to handle the most complex high-conflict cases such as divorce and child custody, with a strong track record of handling trial and jury cases. We believe local expertise, trial experience, and deep knowledge of the courts is just as important as empathy and clear communication with you and your family.

Our family law practice is focused on Jefferson Parish Louisiana, so we work hard to know the judges, the courts, and the processes and procedures necessary to produce positive outcomes for our clients. The attorneys of Marino & Ehle are experienced trial attorneys  who know the law in Louisiana, with a track record of going to trial to fight for your rights and your life in high stakes emotionally charged cases such as divorce, child support, and community property battles. 

Louisiana is the only civil law jurisdiction in the U.S. Our current laws are actually based on the Louisiana Civil Code which was inspired by the Napoleonic Code, but our laws have evolved significantly over the history of our state. These differences aren’t just academic—they fundamentally change how assets are divided and how children are protected compared to other states. Our attorneys will take time to get to know you and the specifics of your case, explain your rights and obligations and what you can expect for outcomes. Marino and Ehle will fight for you and guide you through all phases of the proceedings. If you have family law needs or a complex civil law case in Jefferson Parish Louisiana, contact the attorneys at Marino & Ehle. Make them your first call!
