There are two main types of divorce: contested and uncontested. If you face an uncontested divorce, the process can be more straightforward as all matters related to the marriage have been seemingly resolved before filing. This can include contentious issues such as:
As you can imagine, a contested divorce is one in which no agreement of these issues is reached. When a divorce is contested, this can lead to lengthy legal battles between the two parties, and if there are children involved, this can cause additional stress for the parents and the child. The attorneys at Randall, Page & Bruch, P.C. have the experience needed to handle these cases, and we can empathize with how complex these cases are; we always keep in mind that these are not just legal issues but family issues.
When two parents have significant differences in their income, there may be an order for child support issues. This means that one parent is required by law to pay the other parent for the cost of raising the child. Both parents will be needed to support the child during the divorce and separation until an official order is in place.
Spousal support is similar to child support in that one spouse will need to pay another spouse a monthly payment. This often happens when one spouse makes significantly less than the other and has changed their life to care for the family’s needs. Many things will be considered in spousal support cases, which is why a Virginia Beach family law attorney can be critical to protecting your rights.
Where your children live and go to school is essential to their overall health and well-being. This is why it is necessary to have a clear idea of their primary residence. You will also have to have a fair visitation schedule in place so that both parents can be active participants in the child’s life. You will need to be aware of both legal and physical custody as they cover different topics related to child custody.
When you are facing family law issues like divorce, adoption, child support, and others, you will need to find the right Virginia Beach family law attorney on your side. Call the office of Randall, Page & Bruch, P.C. at 757-742-6115 today.
