No one wants to end up in family court. But, as someone who has (unfortunately) become well-acquainted with the system, I can attest that having the right attorney truly can make all the difference. I came to Liz by recommendation of a friend, after my previous attorney left the business. I had been burned by my lack of legal knowledge at the beginning of my journey, especially when it came to seeking representation, so I cannot tell you how grateful I was to meet Liz. Her wise counsel and strong representation have made a world of difference for me and my family. She is an expert in her field, but also a genuinely good human, who cares about the parents and families she represents. She encouraged me to seek peaceful resolution when possible, and fight for the sake of my kids if/when needed. She has been, and continues to be, with me through the highs and lows of contentious coparenting. She is easy to reach, prompt to respond, gives sound guidance and offers exceptional representation. She listens to my priorities, investing time where it matters, and saving me money when possible. She can do this because she knows the system well, and where her time and our money is best spent. It is rare in the world of lawyers to find someone who cares deeply AND has the skills to get the job done, and even more so to find it with a reasonable price tag. If you are looking for a great advocate in family court, look no further. Liz Avon is a rare gem, and retaining her won't be a decision you regret (...and this is from someone paying her, not someone getting paid!)

I cannot recommend Sean and team enough. I wanted nothing to do with attorneys or court stuff but had a situation that was out of my control and needed an attorney. From day 1 - he helped me understand the process and walked with me through the most challenging and emotional experience of my life. I think it's imperative to note how empathetic and helpful everyone was. These moments in life are never easy and to be handled in such a caring way was amazing.
Because Sean and team are so well prepared and helped me understand the process instead of getting caught up in the emotion of it all - every best case scenario worked out. There was never a single moment where the process caught me off guard. I was in-the-know and aware of how it works without having a single bit of law experience. So instead of going in scared, the team made me feel prepared.
I cannot stress enough how amazing Sean and team were. Professional, compassionate, and amazing. Use this team! They are tremendous in every single way.

Liz Avon is your person! Simply stated. Professional, Compassionate, Knowledgeable. They are a 5-star law firm in every aspect of Family Law. The one thing we liked the most about Liz was that she listened. She didn’t tell us what to do, she discussed options with us. We don’t know what we would have done without her. If you want the right person on your side – call this firm!

Frequently Asked Questions About Ruppert Law Firm LLC
What Are My Custody Rights While I’m Getting Divorced?
Mothers and fathers have the same legal rights to custody of their children as they did before the divorce until a long-term resolution is achieved by either settlement agreement or a judge’s ruling. A custody agreement should be developed before one parent moves out to ensure stability and structure for the children in a tumultuous time.
I’m Moving Out Before The Divorce Is ‘Final.’ What Can I Take?
Assuming that the timing is right for you to move, you should take only things you don’t foresee fighting with your spouse about during divorce proceedings. Personal belongings like clothes, shoes, medication, toiletries and identification are generally safe to take. Anything covered in a prenup should be able to be taken without major consequence. However, everything else is highly dependent on the situation.
How Long Will The Divorce Process Last?
If you and your spouse both agree that you would like the divorce as quickly as possible, you can obtain a collaborative divorce. Many amicable divorces can be as short as about 90 days from filing to decree as long as both parties are responsive.
Unfortunately, if one of you is unwilling to cooperate, the process can take much longer, even years. If one party does not wish to be divorced, it takes at least two years from the date of your separation before the state of Pennsylvania will grant a divorce. If both parties cannot agree on the division of property or custody, a divorce can take even longer than that, since the courts will have to decide what they think is the fairest way to separate your lives.
