Practice Areas

Providence Immigration and Employment Visa Attorneys

At Kaplan & Associates Inc., serving clients in Rhode Island and eastern Massachusetts, we focus on the following areas of practice:

DUI/Traffic Violations

When arrested for a DUI, you need to plan for the criminal proceedings related to your case. However, there is an administrative facet that involves preventing the suspension of your license, even prior to any conviction.

Breathalyzer Refusal

While refusing to take a breathalyzer test prevents the prosecution from getting a significant piece of evidence, there are also consequences for which you need to be aware. Your license will be suspended and you may receive a fine and be required to attend highway safety and alcohol treatment-related programs.

Multiple Offenses

Being charged with multiple DUIs means stiffer penalties that could result in lengthier jail times or permanent loss of a license. If you are a repeat offender, please visit our page entitled, “Why Hire a Good DUI Attorney”.

Family Law

Your family law situation may be rife with emotion. You want an attorney that is able to put the emotional element aside and help you through the legal issues.

Divorce

Divorce is a necessary step when all other avenues have been exhausted. You have rights and those rights need to be protected. Mediation is ideal, but litigation may be a necessary step to resolving your divorce.

Child Custody/Child Support

Money matters can change the complexion of any divorce. While child support is determined by a rigid formula, it is the numbers that are entered into the calculator that can create a dispute.

Interstate Custody & Post-Judgment Modifications

If you are seeking to move out of state, you need to revisit the existing agreement that you signed to finalize your divorce. At Kaplan & Associates Inc., we will facilitate the process to find a mutually agreed upon decision.

Immigration

Whether your immigration needs relate to Naturalization/US Citizenship, business, professional, and medical needs; family-based immigration visas; or temporary non-immigrant visas, our immigration attorneys have the experience to help you.

Creditors’ Rights

Creditors have the same rights as the debtors. If money is owed to them, they are within their rights to pursue collection actions within the law.

In addition to the above listed areas of practice, our firm handles cases involving administrative, agency, and regulatory compliance; personal injury; banking and finance law; business and commercial law; civil litigation and appeals; contracts; domestication of foreign judgments; employment law; estate planning and administration; and real estate law. We also provide services for out of state attorneys that encompass local counsel for pro hac vice admissions and serving rogatory letters and foreign subpoenas.
