Divorce
* The steps listed above are a simplified explanation of the Maine divorce and family law process. Usually there is a period of discovery where parties are able to seek financial information pertaining to one another. It is common that one more of an array of different motions is filed by either or both parties. A guardian ad litem may be appointed if there are children. These cases can be considerably more complicated than would be indicated as set out above. In other cases the steps may be abbreviated. For instance, in some courts, at the initial appearance for a motion to modify child support the parties might have mediation, a case management conference, and a hearing all in the same day. Some courts might use the initial appearance as a pretrial conference depending on the issues left to be resolved.

Divorce
* The steps listed above are a simplified explanation of the Maine divorce and family law process. Usually there is a period of discovery where parties are able to seek financial information pertaining to one another. It is common that one more of an array of different motions is filed by either or both parties. A guardian ad litem may be appointed if there are children. These cases can be considerably more complicated than would be indicated as set out above. In other cases the steps may be abbreviated. For instance, in some courts, at the initial appearance for a motion to modify child support the parties might have mediation, a case management conference, and a hearing all in the same day. Some courts might use the initial appearance as a pretrial conference depending on the issues left to be resolved.
Child Support
The complaints just mentioned are called original proceedings. Any motion/complaint filed after the completion of the original proceedings is likely to be one of three post-judgment motions: Motion to Modify Divorce or Parental Rights and Responsibilities Order; Motion to Enforce; and/or Motion for Contempt. Whether it is a post-judgment motion or an original proceeding, the same general steps are followed; however, not all steps are required and the process is more streamlined for post-judgment motions, particularly when modifying child support only.
Child Custody and Visitation
Paternity
Generally, one of three complaints are filed: Complaint for Divorce- with children; Complaint for Divorce- no children; or, for parents who are unmarried, Complaint for Determination of Paternity, Parental Rights & Responsibilities, & Child Support. The other party will be served the complaint and accompanying documents that will also need to be filed with the court.
Spousal Support
With our experience in family law, we represent all individuals or couples seeking divorce, as well as those who are unmarried with children. Our team of experienced attorneys handles custody, property division, spousal support, and child support, and we work directly with the other party or their attorney in settlements. When necessary, we attend hearings before a family law judge.

Criminal Defense
Backed by more than 40 years of experience, our civil and criminal law attorneys have the knowledge and expertise to handle your case, and we never settle too soon or for less than you deserve.
Wrongful Death
Sex Crimes
Criminal Law includes both felonies (more serious offenses -- like murder or rape) and misdemeanors (less serious offenses -- like petty theft or jaywalking) at both Federal and State courts. Felonies are usually crimes punishable by imprisonment of a year or more, while misdemeanors are crimes punishable by less than a year. Whether you are under investigation, recently arrested or already indicted, your freedom is at stake. The attorneys at Lynch & Van Dyke have the knowledge and experience to protect your rights.
Fraud
Our attorneys have handled dozens of complex felony cases in State and Federal court. We also handle white collar offenses such as benefit, insurance or tax fraud.
Robbery
We represent defendants for all criminal law cases including federal and state criminal law. We have experience in many different areas including individuals charged with drug trafficking, murder, manslaughter, assaults of all kinds, burglary, robbery, sex offenses and vehicle offenses (such as operating under the influence).
