Divorce
The decision to divorce is never easy, and the process can be challenging, even in amicable cases. We help you navigate the issues and the process while protecting your best interests. Whether you are considering divorce or have already made up your mind, we can help.
Legal Separation
In some cases, legal separation is the best option for a couple. We can help you decide whether it is right for you, what it means, and how it differs from divorce.
Property & Debt Division
The division of property and debt is one of the most important aspects of a divorce. Our goal is to facilitate a fair and equitable division of your property and debt, allowing you to start anew with confidence.
Parenting Time & Custody
Your divorce should improve, not impair, your relationship with your child. We work hard to reach parenting agreements that cover all of the important details so that you have the time with your child that you need and your child gets the stability they deserve.
Child Support
Of course, ensuring your child’s financial stability is one of your top priorities. We can help you understand what to expect when it comes to ensuring that your child receives the support they need.
Spousal Maintenance
Spousal maintenance is awarded in certain situations under Indiana law. We can assess whether this is an option in your case and what you can expect and then push for a fair outcome.
Guardianship
Establishing and maintaining a guardianship for someone who cannot take care of themselves is a difficult road. We will work with you to help protect the rights and interests of the people you care about.
Step-Parent Adoptions
We are eager to assist if you wish to adopt a child. We will help navigate the obstacles involved in the adoption process quickly and cost-effectively so you can begin building a life together as soon as possible.
Prenuptial Agreements
A prenuptial agreement or “premarital” agreement is a binding contract entered into prior to marriage that specifies how assets and debts are to be divided upon divorce or death. We can help you decide if a prenuptial agreement makes sense for you. Then, if you choose to move forward with one, we can draft an agreement that is comprehensive, fair, and enforceable.
Post-Nuptial Agreements
Many couples realize only after marriage that a prenuptial agreement would have made sense. We help those couples create post-nuptial agreements that detail financial obligations and ownership of assets in the event of divorce.
Modifications
Change is inevitable in life. We will help you with family-related court orders to get the modifications you need to keep moving forward. We also protect you and your families against unreasonable modifications and seek beneficial arrangements for everyone involved.
Appeals
Unfortunately, there are no guarantees when it comes to litigation. However, if you have yet to achieve the desired outcome, we have the experience to navigate the appeals process.
