Committed to Developing Sustainable Legal Solutions in Virginia
Legal issues often stem from other life challenges. At Cedar Law Center, we started this practice not only to help individuals and families find sustainable solutions that meet their legal needs, but also to help them solve the underlying problems they struggle with. We want to give them the opportunity to change their life course.
From family law to criminal defense, we see our clients as people rather than just legal cases. We will take the time to get to know you and build a legal strategy that addresses a broad range of needs.
Finding the Root of the Problem
Linda M. Shin became an attorney and founded Cedar Law Center later in life. This is because she saw how destructive the legal system could be. That is why our goal in every case is to make our client's life better. It does no good to simply have a lawyer resolve the legal issues if you will find yourself struggling with the same underlying problem down the road.
Family Law Services
We encourage families to work through divorce in a non-adversarial way. This often means using mediation or collaborative law instead of traditional litigation. We strive for solutions that are best for our clients, their children and their family as a whole. We do recognize, however, that sometimes court intervention in an adversarial process may be the most appropriate solution. In those cases, you can count on us to vigorously represent your interests and to advise you, even in the adversarial process, which battles are worth fighting and which are better settled. A dedicated Virginia divorce attorney at Cedar Law Center can help you find the answers that fit your family circumstances the best.
Virginia Beach Criminal Law Lawyer
When a client is facing criminal charges, we not only want to mitigate the consequences of those charges but work to provide strategies to help that person avoid a similar situation in the future.
Determining the emotional and personal issues that lead to a criminal charge can be difficult. This is why we spend time with our clients. We will sit down with you, talk through the circumstances surrounding your legal matter to make sure we give you a thorough defense, and also to help you identify opportunities for change in your life. We will work with you to identify and explore the resources available to find help through courts, the community and your faith tradition to set your life on a positive and hopeful track. Sometimes genuine remorse and the ability to demonstrate that you are taking a different path motivates a judge to pursue a more merciful course. Don't overlook the importance of this aspect of your legal defense and your life plan.
Call 757-337-4976 or contact us online to schedule a free initial consultation. We serve clients throughout the area, including Chesapeake, Norfolk and Virginia Beach. We will take the time to listen to your concerns and explain the helpful legal options available.
