When the well-being and future of your children are at stake, you require a knowledgeable and dedicated advocate who understands the intricacies of Medina County family law. Daniel Gigiano is a Wadsworth-based attorney focused exclusively on protecting the rights of parents and, most importantly, safeguarding the best interests of their children during custody and support proceedings.
At the Law Office of Daniel F. Gigiano Co., L.P.A., we provide robust legal representation for the full spectrum of child-focused family law matters. Our services are designed to address both immediate concerns and long-term stability for your family, including:
Establishing Paternity, Custody, and Support: We provide clear guidance and assertive representation to legally establish parental relationships and secure fair custody and financial support orders from the outset.
Modifying Existing Court Orders: Life circumstances change. We assist parents in seeking modifications to custody, parenting time, and child support orders when faced with job loss, relocation, or other significant changes.
Enforcing Court Orders through Post-Decree Contempt Actions: When the other parent fails to comply with a court order, we take decisive legal action to enforce your rights, including filing motions for contempt to uphold the court’s authority.
With over two decades of experience practicing family law in Ohio since 2000, Attorney Daniel Gigiano is committed to achieving the most favorable outcome for your family. Our firm has a demonstrated history of securing tangible results for parents in Wadsworth and throughout Medina County, such as:
Securing Fair Financial Support: We have successfully obtained significantly higher child support payments for clients than the local Child Support Enforcement Agency (CSEA) initially provided, ensuring children’s needs are adequately met.
Protecting Against Unfair Claims: We vigorously protect clients from inaccurate or unjust support applications filed by the other parent, ensuring obligations are based on correct financial information.
Prevailing in Complex Custody Disputes: Our experience includes winning custody for a parent even after Children Services had been granted permanent custody of the child, demonstrating our tenacity in the most challenging cases.
Ensuring Child Safety: We have successfully limited parents with a documented history of abusive or inappropriate behavior to supervised visitation, prioritizing the child’s safety and well-being.
Ohio courts generally favor Shared Parenting plans, which thoughtfully allocate parental rights and responsibilities between both parents. It is critical to understand that the court’s ultimate decision is always guided by the legal standard of the child’s best interests.
Attorney Gigiano possesses the precise skill and local experience necessary to draft a comprehensive shared parenting plan that meets the court’s approval while protecting your relationship with your child. In contested cases where a mutual agreement is not possible, he will provide vigorous and strategic representation to fight for your parental rights and the parenting time you deserve.
The calculation of child support in Ohio is governed by official guidelines, which take into account the number of children, both parents’ gross incomes, healthcare costs, childcare expenses, and other statutory factors. Payments are typically processed through the local child support enforcement agency via wage withholding. Our firm works diligently to ensure that the support calculation is accurate, complete, and fair, based on a thorough review of all relevant financial information.
Navigating child custody and support matters is one of the most difficult experiences a parent can face. Having a seasoned and local legal advocate by your side is essential to protecting your future with your children.
