Offering an Honest, Straightforward Assessment of Your Case
If you want to file for divorce or are dealing with another family law issue, you need honest advice so you can make an informed decision about how to move forward with your case. Our attorneys give clients straightforward counsel and skilled representation in areas including:
- Divorce: Whether your divorce is contested or uncontested, our attorneys will provide you with honest advice and personalized representation throughout the process.
- Division of marital assets: Before your divorce can be made final, you will need a settlement or decree dividing your and your spouse's assets and debts.
- Child custody and visitation: We understand how important your children are to you and will do everything we can to pursue your custody and visitation goals.
- Child support modification: If you've lost your job or accepted a lower-paying position, you may be entitled to pay less or receive more child support.
- Fathers' rights: While mothers still usually get primary custody in Tennessee, this is changing as fathers are taking more active roles in their children's lives.
- Child support: Tennessee's child support guidelines are based on the incomes of both parents and several other factors. Our attorneys will help you seek a fair determination.
- Enforcement: Property division, child custody, alimony and child support decrees are enforced through contempt of court actions. We pursue and defend against these actions.
- Legal separation: If you do not want to get divorced for religious, financial or personal reasons, you may want to pursue the alternative of a legal separation agreement.
The decisions made during an emotional time of marital discord can affect you for years and years. It's human nature to make quick decisions when dealing with unpleasant circumstances, but we try to help you keep decisions in perspective and your choices informed.
You deserve a lawyer who will work hard to protect your rights and pursue your goals. Don't hesitate to contact us to discuss your divorce or other family law case.
