McNELIS & McNELIS

Family is the connection.
Understanding is the start.

A shared history doesn’t always mean a shared point of view.

When relationships become disputes, the details matter: what each person needs, what is at stake, and what a workable resolution could look like. Our focus is on family law and the complicated disagreements that can arise between twins.

HOW WE CAN HELP

Close relationships.
Complex questions.

01

Family law

A clear starting point when changes within a family raise difficult questions about relationships, responsibilities, and the future.

Explore family law

Start by identifying the issues that need attention, the documents that tell the story, and your priorities for the next chapter. The scope of any representation is discussed directly with the attorneys.

02

Twin disputes

For disagreements where a lifelong connection and two separate identities are part of the same story.

Explore twin disputes

Shared property, competing expectations, and family decisions can become points of conflict. Begin with a clear account of the disagreement and what each person hopes to resolve.

03

Finding resolution

Understand the conflict, clarify what matters, and consider a path forward that takes the relationship into account.

Explore the approach

A first conversation can help frame the disagreement and identify the questions to discuss. Available options depend on the facts, jurisdiction, and any conflicts of interest.

A DISTINCT FOCUS

Who understands twins?
Twins.

An identical appearance doesn’t make a disagreement any less individual.

Ryan and Robert are identical twin brothers. The firm’s focus on disputes between twins begins with a simple idea: each person deserves to be heard as an individual, even when their lives have always been intertwined.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

A little clarity
goes a long way.

What should I prepare for a first conversation?

A short timeline, the names of everyone involved, any relevant documents, and the outcome you hope to reach. Avoid sending sensitive information before the firm confirms how to share it.

Does every family disagreement require a lawsuit?

The appropriate approach depends on the situation. A consultation is an opportunity to discuss the facts and ask what paths may be available.

Can the firm represent both twins in a dispute?

Representation is subject to a conflicts review. Do not assume the firm can act for both sides; discuss this directly with the attorneys before sharing confidential details.
