Marital separation and dissolution

Separation and Divorce.

Prenuptial, postnuptial and cohabitation agreements

Prior to marriage, two people may be questioning whether they should truly get married or not, and whether their marriage will last a lifetime. When these two people decide to make this life-changing decision.

Spousal support or Alimony

In many relationships, one spouse is more financially well off than the other. In a divorce, this earning discrepancy means that the less well off partner is entitled to receive spousal support, or alimony, to help him or her establish a new, post-divorce life.

Annulments

Annulments of marriage are rare in today’s society, but the procedure is still available if the required legal grounds for annulment are present

Domestic Violence

It can occur to anyone anywhere. No matter who the person is or what his or her station in life is, he or she can still suffer from domestic violence. When this happens, the most important thing is to make sure it stops before someone is seriously injured or killed.

Child Custody and Visitation

Custody is a broader term and can refer to either legal or physical custody, while visitation refers to time actually spent with the child. Legal custody refers to the decision-making done when raising. Physical custody can also be given solely to one parent or split between the parents.

Child Support

In family law and public policy, child support (or child maintenance) is an ongoing, periodic payment made by a parent for the financial benefit of a child (or parent, caregiver, guardian, or state) following the end of a marriage or other relationship.
