Protecting Your Rights During Divorce
Many people do not realize the importance of handling divorce correctly. Although you can do it by yourself, it is almost always in your best interests to have a lawyer guide you through it to ensure that your rights are protected. If you try to do it alone, you may end up getting less than you are entitled to simply because you do not know your rights. You could even end up with a custody plan that is not enforceable.
At our firm, we can make sure you are protected during your divorce. We will listen to your goals, explain your rights and help you work toward a positive outcome. We handle all aspects of divorce, including property division, alimony, child custody, separation agreements and mediation. If you are experiencing depression, anxiety or angry outbursts, contact a mental health professional immediately.
If you are divorcing because of domestic violence, we can help you seek the immediate protection you and your children need by way of a court order, private investigator services or personal protection.
Did Your Spouse Cheat On You?
Being cheated on is infuriating. North Carolina has specific laws regarding marital affairs that may work to your benefit as far as alimony or post-separation support. We can help you understand your options and how your spouse's infidelity may impact your divorce. We will also explain how you can possibly financially punish the person who wrecked your home life and destroyed your family.
