Welcome to Boyd & Cidado Family Law Firm, where our mission is to provide caring and exceptional representation tailored to your family’s individual goals and needs. Attorneys Josh D. Boyd and Alex R. Cidado, along with their dedicated team including Daniel Kilfoyle and Anna G. Mills, have years of experience guiding clients through the often emotional and complex challenges of family law. We understand that every case is unique, and we are committed to putting your future first.

Our firm specializes in a comprehensive range of family law matters. We expertly handle divorce proceedings, including intricate property division cases. In Georgia, we navigate the principles of Equitable Division, ensuring a fair distribution of marital assets while considering factors such as earning capacity, work history, education, and conduct during the marriage. We also provide clear guidance on distinguishing between marital and separate premarital property, helping clients understand how assets like 401ks are divided.

A significant area of our expertise lies in child custody matters, particularly under the Georgia Equitable Caregiver Act of 2019. This act allows courts to grant custody to non-relatives, including stepparents and extended family members, who have historically fulfilled parenting duties. We assist clients in demonstrating their established parental bond and comprehensive caregiving role, advocating for the child's best interests. While the law still favors biological parents, we help equitable caregivers present compelling evidence to secure legal custody. We also address specific concerns regarding grandparents' rights, clarifying their standing under current Georgia law.

Beyond divorce and custody, our services extend to child support, modifications, and legitimation cases. Josh D. Boyd is particularly skilled in high-asset divorce and complex agreements, representing corporate executives and professional athletes. Alex R. Cidado emphasizes clear and timely communication, ensuring clients are fully informed and respected throughout their case. Daniel Kilfoyle brings extensive courtroom experience and a focus on dedication and professionalism to all family law issues. At Boyd & Cidado, we strive to minimize unnecessary expense and litigation, providing strategic, professional, and compassionate legal support during life's most challenging times.
