Family Law including Divorce, Support, and Allocation of Parental Responsibilities
Divorce. There are two types of divorce cases, contested or uncontested. If the case is uncontested, it means that both parties agree in regards to all aspects of the divorce, including property division, debt payment, child support, maintenance, and allocation of parental responsibility - previously known as child custody, if applicable. However, if the divorce is a contested divorce, it means there is at least one issue that both parties cannot come to an agreement on, and therefore, needs to be addressed.
Support. Maintenance, child support, and college contribution are some of the types of support provided in family law. There are guidelines for the allocation of support.
Allocation of Parental Responsibilities. If the relationship between mom and dad breaks down, the relationship between the parent and child does not have to break down. Naturally, children deserve to have a relationship with both parents. In the event the parties can’t establish an agreed upon parenting plan, the court will determine the parenting time and allocation of parental responsibilities given to each party.
