Divorce and Marital Dissolution
Divorce, by itself, simply means the end of a marriage. However, the real issues that divorce creates are oriented around property division and any children of the marriage. Our office provides full-service in this area of family law. We will help you resolve every issue that you are facing when you are considering divorce, including child support, spousal support, child custody and visitation.
Property Division, Spousal Support and Alimony
Kentucky uses equitable division to separate all property accumulated during the course of a marriage, including houses, cars, pensions, 401k's and stocks. Equitable distribution means that property is divided according to the financial resources of each partner of the marriage, while taking into account their non-monetary contributions to the marriage. It is this area in which representation by a competent attorney can make the biggest difference in the outcome of a divorce proceeding.
Paternity and Child Support
Our office will help you draft a pleadings for paternity testing in order to establish parentage of a child. This is a necessary step to establishing ongoing child support obligations as well as the right to be kept informed of and to be consulted on other major issues in a child's life.
Stepparent Adoptions
Our office also handles stepparent adoptions for blended families in which one spouse wishes to adopt the other's children.
Domestic Violence
We will help you gain protection from an abusive domestic partner through emergency protection orders (EPO's) and domestic protective orders. Do not wait until it is too late to ask for help in this important matter. Call our office at (502) 585-4358.
