Modifications and Enforcement
Life continues to change after your divorce is finalized. We represent and defend people in post-divorce modification and enforcement proceedings. When situations change after your divorce, you may petition the court to modify an existing order. If your former spouse fails to abide by the conditions of your divorce order, we will protect your rights in enforcement proceedings.
Paternity Disputes
For an unmarried parent to assert full rights and be held responsible for obligations in relation to a child, the court must first resolve any paternity disputes. Paternity is most often established by signing an Acknowledgment of Paternity form. If there is a paternity dispute, the court will require a person to undertake paternity testing. Generally done through DNA testing, paternity testing is essential before a court will grant child support, custody or visitation.
Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements
Occasionally, parties want to define their rights and obligations prior to marriage or divorce. A prenuptial agreement is a valuable tool you can use to protect your financial wealth and legal obligations before getting married. We also draft postnuptial agreements to achieve goals similar to a prenuptial agreement.
