Types of Family Law Issues

A family law attorney in our area can assist with many different types of cases. Many family law issues overlap, and individuals may find themselves dealing with multiple issues simultaneously. For example, someone dealing with a divorce may also need to address custody and child support issues.

Some common legal issues a Marietta family lawyer may be able to assist with include:

 

 

How Can a Local Family Lawyer Help with a Divorce?

One of the most common reasons for someone to seek a family law attorney is because they are involved in a divorce proceeding. The legal function of divorce is to terminate a marriage, but in reality, the process involves many other issues, such as the division of property, child custody, child support, and spousal support.

A Marietta family lawyer will be able to help anyone facing a divorce currently, but it is also wise to consider the possibility of divorce even prior to marriage. For instance, a prenuptial agreement is a contract a couple may enter with each other prior to marriage that addresses the division of property, allocation of debts, and spousal support in the event of divorce.

Alternatively, parties who get married without a premarital agreement may want to consider entering into an agreement after marriage that addresses the same issues, known as a postnuptial agreement.

How Are Legal Issues Involving Children Decided in Marietta?

When it comes to issues involving children — such as custody, visitation, guardianship, and adoption — the courts must always prioritize the best interests of the child. This means that legal decisions that affect children should be made with the goal of fostering the child’s happiness, security, and emotional development.

The best interests of the child include factors such as the child’s need for a stable home environment, the age and sex of the child, the child’s wishes, and any special needs of the child. This decision also typically incorporates the child’s relationship to others in the household and extended family.

 

 

We’re Here for You

Child Support

Another common family law issue that affects children is child support. Both parents are legally obligated to provide financial support for a child. Child support amounts are based on many factors, but usually include the income of both parents and the special needs of the child.

 

 

Talking to a Marietta Family Attorney

Family law cases cover a wide range of legal issues. In addition to the more well-known issues such as divorce, custody, and child support, family law attorneys also deal with a variety of other issues, including paternity, emancipation, surrogacy, and artificial insemination.

Whether you are dealing with one of the legal issues discussed here or any other familial legal issue, a Marietta family lawyer may be able to help. Contact a family law attorney today to discuss your situation and find out how you might be able to get the outcome you are seeking.
