Best Interest Law is a firm promoting fair resolutions in domestic relations matters, while ensuring that clients' rights are safeguarded. Attorney, Dennis M. Germain, a self-confessed family law nerd, is its founder and principal. Germain has a quiet confidence, a background in humanities, and his brain is a family law library. Germain spent years developing a system of values that addresses the
unique emotional and economic concerns customarily involved in domestic relations matters. The outcome is the “Three C’s” of Best Interest Law; (1) Competence, (2) Candor, and (3) Cost Effectiveness. Under these core values, Germain strategically guides clients through the legal process in a manner that suits their budgets. This approach entails a careful balance of maintaining courtesy and evading unnecessary confrontation, while also ensuring the client’s best interests are advanced. Most important of all, this approach requires listening to the client’s voice. When naming the firm, Germain chose the phrase “Best Interest,” not only because it is one of the most frequently used terms of art in family law (See MCL 722.23), but also because a lawyer’s duty to act in the client’s best interest is the most fundamental principle to practicing law. It is this firm’s job to make the best moves towards your best interests.
