Divorce
For a divorce to be granted in North Carolina, a couple must live separate and apart for at least a year, with one of the parties having lived in the state for at least six months prior to filing. I can help you navigate the legal processes involved with a divorce and make the process more efficient and affordable.
The divorce decree officially ends the marriage. However, most issues involved in these cases can be settled prior to the official divorce, through mediation, including:
- Child custody and support
- Distribution of property
- Alimony or spousal support
Separation
There are a variety of ways in which a couple can go about being separated. Some simply live apart while others decide amongst themselves how to resolve their issues and then have an attorney formulate an effective strategy to protect their interests. Consulting with an attorney can help individuals protect their interests by:
- Protecting property
- Minimizing conflict with children
- Maintaining their standard of living
Protect Yourself from Violence
If domestic violence is involved, there are legal remedies that enable a spouse to get immediate ex parte relief without a court hearing or notice to the other party. If you feel like your safety, or the safety of your children, is compromised, contact me as soon as possible.
