Family (Law) is Complicated

Some family law issues seem straight-forward. But cases can get complicated quickly. For instance, dividing community property may require special court orders, like a Qualified Domestic Relations Order or Military Qualifying Court Order, to separate movable accounts.

Adopting a child may require involuntary termination of the biological parents’ rights before others can legally assume parental responsibility. This situation may arise in intra-family adoptions where another family member is already bearing most of the responsibilities of parenting without the benefit of financial support or legal rights.

 

To safely go through the divorce process, you may need a protective or restraining order from a spouse who is threatening or has committed acts of physical violence.
