Types of Family Law Cases We Can Help With

Family law cases can take many different forms and involve all sorts of concepts, procedures, responsibilities, and challenges. Thankfully, you don’t have to worry about the possible complexities of your family law case if you hire an Omaha family law attorney from Hope Law Firm. Our team is familiar with Nebraska’s family laws and regulations, as well as the expectations and procedures of local courtrooms, so you can leave everything up to us.

We would be happy to help you with all types of family law cases, such as:

• Divorce: If you need to end your marriage, we can help with your divorce, including contested, uncontested, military, and high net worth divorces.
• Child custody and visitation: We can work on your child custody and/or visitation case and keep your child’s best interests in center focus. We are available to help families make sense of child custody arrangements that involve state lines, such as if your spouse lives across the Iowa border.
• Child support: Do you need child support to help you care for your child after divorce? Are you expecting to pay child support as the parent who made the most income or who doesn’t have primary child custody? In either situation, we can help find a solution that protects your child’s best interests and feels fair to both parents.
• Spousal support or alimony: Oftentimes in divorce, one spouse needs financial support from the other until they can become financially independent. Spousal support or alimony payments can be arranged based on each spouse’s financial needs.
• Property and debt division: Nebraska uses equitable distribution rules when dividing property and debt in divorce. Equitable means fair, which might not mean 50/50 or even.
• Adoption: If you are growing your family through adoption, our attorneys would be honored to be the ones you trust to walk you through the process. We can take care of all parts of the adoption process, including those for stepparent adoptions and grandparent adoptions.
• Paternity: In some family law cases, establishing paternity is important, like a child custody or child support case. Ask us for help establishing paternity either for yourself or for the man who you think is the father of your child.
• Domestic violence: You can depend on us for sensitive and confidential representation for any case involving domestic violence or domestic violence accusations. We can help with obtaining protective orders or challenging a protective order if you think you have been falsely or unfairly accused.
