Contested Divorce Law

Contested Divorce Family Law Lawyer

Contested Divorce Law:

Contested divorce refers to a divorce situation where both parties do not agree to different divorce issues such as custody, visitation, the division of assets and responsibility of debts. Unfortunately in some divorce situations, emotions run high between the spouses, making it nearly impossible to reach an agreement on any issue. Although less common, contested divorce also refers to a divorce situation in which one spouse does not agree with the divorce and attempts to prevent it.

Contested Divorce Legal Issues:

Contested divorce deals with many Family Law issues that can cause conflict and anxiety between the spouses, such as in the following situations:

• Child support, where the spouses are unsure how their child will be provided for after the divorce
• Property division, where the spouses don't know where to live after the divorce
• Illness, where the spouses are concerned about affording medical bills since the other spouse's medical plan will no longer be available
• Assets, where the spouses are unsure about how to divide the property fairly
