Family Law Matters in Norfolk

Family law is a specialized area of legal practice that deals with legal issues related to family relationships and domestic matters. It encompasses a wide range of issues, and family law cases are typically handled in family courts or specialized divisions of the courts. The primary goal of family law is to resolve conflicts and legal issues arising within families in a fair and just manner.

Here are some common types of family law cases:

  • Divorce: Involves the legal termination of a marriage. Issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and child custody may be addressed.
  • Child Custody: Determines the legal and physical custody of children when parents separate or divorce. This includes decisions about where the child will live and the visitation rights of the noncustodial parent.
  • Child Support: Establishes the financial responsibility of parents for their children's upbringing. The noncustodial parent may be required to make regular payments to the custodial parent for the child's support.
  • Property Division: Addresses the equitable distribution of marital assets and debts during divorce proceedings. This includes real estate, financial accounts, personal property, and other assets.
  • Alimony (Spousal Support): Involves financial support paid by one spouse to the other after a divorce. It aims to address economic disparities and provide financial assistance to the spouse in need.
  • Prenuptial Agreements: Contracts entered into by couples before marriage, outlining the distribution of assets and spousal support in the event of divorce. They can help protect individual assets and clarify financial expectations.
  • Mediation: A method of alternative dispute resolution where a neutral third party (mediator) helps couples negotiate and reach agreements on issues such as divorce, custody, and support without going to court.
  • Domestic Violence: Addresses legal issues related to abuse or violence within a family or intimate relationship. Protective orders and legal intervention may be sought to ensure the safety of the victim.
  • Adoption: Involves the legal process of becoming the legal parent of a child who is not biologically one's own. This can include step-parent adoptions, agency adoptions, and international adoptions.
