An Experienced West Metro Family Law Attorney

Dealing with any legal matter that involves your family is emotional and stressful. My name is William A. Winter, and I understand this. As a family law attorney, I have been serving families in Hennepin County and the west metro area for more than 30 years.

I founded Winter Law, LLC, in Orono to focus exclusively on family law. I have dedicated my career to helping families in Minnesota. You will find that I am calm, confident and committed to helping you through this stressful process. My approach is straightforward. I believe in providing consistent communication and being there for you every step of the way.

Comprehensive Legal Services For Any Area Of Family Law

With an exclusive focus on family law, I am capable of handling any legal matter within the realm of family law. In my decades of experience, I have seen it all. I help clients with the following:

• Divorce: I handle every kind of divorce scenario, including amicable non-contested divorces and highly contentious situations. I help my clients negotiate complex property and asset divisions. I have also handled high-profile divorces and divorces where couples have been together for decades and have adult children.
• Child custody, visitation and parenting time: I help my clients navigate custody issues that arise during divorce and paternity matters. I help clients establish parenting plans that are in the best interests of their children.
• Domestic partnership dissolution: I help my clients who aren’t legally married separate their lives from a domestic partnership.
• Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements: I help couples plan for their future by crafting agreements that will provide terms in advance, in the event their marriage dissolves.
• Financial support: Whenever families are transitioning through a divorce or separation, spousal support and child support are important issues.
• Adoption and surrogacy: I provide legal support and assistance to families who are looking to adopt, including grandparents who are considering adopting their grandchildren, or couples considering surrogacy options.

I know if your family situation requires a lawyer’s involvement, you are going through a stressful time. That’s why I focus on consistent and thorough communication throughout the entire legal process. I can guide you through your situation with a calm confidence, to protect your rights and your family’s best interests.

Unique Challenges Require Versatility And Experience

Every family is different. Unique challenges can arise that test the parameters of the family law court system. I have helped couples who aren’t married, grandparents who have found themselves in a parenting role and parents who are navigating paternity matters. With more than 30 years of family law experience, I can confidently and capably handle any family law matter, even those that are unconventional.

The Value Of Negotiation Through Mediation

I am a trained mediator and qualified neutral under Minnesota Rule 114. I encourage my clients to mediate their cases whenever possible to save costs and stay in control of their own outcomes. I also serve as a mediator for others, helping them find amicable solutions.
