How Our Charlotte Family Lawyers Can Help You
When it comes to family law matters, no two cases are the same. That is why our Charlotte family law lawyers take the time to listen to you, understand your goals, and develop a strategy that is tailored to your unique situation.
Our firm handles a wide range of family law issues, including:
- Child Custody: This involves determining which parent or guardian will have legal and physical custody of a child, including decision-making authority and the child's primary residence.
- Child Support: Cases involving the financial support of children, typically after a separation or divorce. Child support ensures that both parents contribute financially to the upbringing of their child.
- Child Visitation (or Parenting Time): Determines the schedule and arrangement for the non-custodial parent to spend time with the child. It outlines when and how the child will visit the non-custodial parent.
- Collaborative Law: A method of resolving family law disputes through collaboration rather than litigation. It involves the parties and their attorneys working together to reach mutually beneficial agreements.
- Divorce (Dissolution of Marriage): The legal termination of a marriage. Divorce cases in North Carolina may involve issues such as property division, spousal support, and child custody and support.
- Enforcement of Orders: Cases where one party seeks enforcement of court orders related to child support, visitation, or other family law matters when the other party fails to comply.
- Modifications: Requests to change existing court orders related to child custody, child support, visitation schedules, or other aspects of family law due to changed circumstances.
- Property Division: Division of marital assets and debts during divorce proceedings. This may include real estate, financial accounts, personal property, and debts acquired during the marriage.
- Protective Orders (Domestic Violence Orders): Court orders intended to protect individuals from domestic violence or harassment. They may include provisions such as restraining orders or orders for temporary custody.
- Spousal Support (Alimony): Payments made by one spouse to the other to provide financial support after separation or divorce. Spousal support may be awarded temporarily or on a long-term basis, depending on the circumstances of the case.
