Military Divorce

As Georgia divorce lawyers, we have the skills and expertise to provide family legal services suited to the needs of each client. We areable advise you on any type process regarding divorce in Georgia such as alimony, child support, child custody, property distributionand pension rights. Our divorce lawyers will make sure you understand and will help you make an informed decision regarding anycomponent of your process, whether it be a contested or uncontested divorce dealing with child custody, child support, modificationsand alimony.

If you are facing a divorce or already party to a divorce, please contact our family lawyers to find out what is the best course of action.

Child SupportA disparaging reality of economic life is that once the family unit is divided, the resources and incomes are divided in half as well inaddition to the increase of overall expenses. This, in turn, lowers the standard of living in which the family has become accustomed.

As a result of these combined factors, the court oftentimes must alter the child support in order to accommodate the child’s changingneeds, in addition to enforcing court orders against parents who either refuse to pay child support, or cannot afford to makepayments. Our family law attorneys will negotiate child support agreements that are in the best interests of the child and at the sametime, appropriate for each parent’s financial and personal circumstances.

Custody and Visitation LawyerThe matter of child custody, especially a child custody dispute, during a divorce is one of the hardest and most contentious elementsof the proceedings.

The legal terms, custody and visitation, are established by the court and dictate which parent the child will reside with and thearrangements in which the child will visit the other parent. Here in Georgia, the law does not show consideration to either the mother orthe father; instead they evaluate the relationship the child has with each parent. Although grandparents and other individuals mayseek custody of the child, the natural parents are typically favored over anyone else.
