Our Practice Areas
Divorce
The major difficulties lie in resolving the many issues arising from separation-most commonly, children, property and finances. Like every person and marriage, every divorce has its own character and nuances. We strive to provide clear counsel on major points you must consider.
Separation Agreements
Some unique aspects of the divorce code in North Carolina make separation agreements more common and significant here than in other U.S. states. Our capable legal team is well-prepared to help you develop and negotiate a separation agreement aligned with your goals and interests.
Post-Separation Support/Alimony
We are diligent and resourceful in pursuing fair and reasonable post-separation support and alimony agreements or orders for our clients, including professionals, executives, business owners, and those leaving high-income marriages. Our proven skills in evaluating complex assets, locating hidden assets, and interpreting financial data can be a tremendous asset in building a strong case for you.
Child Support
Separation and divorce almost always create the need for significant financial adjustments by both parties. We are well-versed in major issues that can determine your financial well-being and protect your hard-earned assets. From our initial conversation forward, we can actively help you pursue and protect your financial interests.
Post-Divorce Modifications
Life goes on after divorce, and just about everything in life is subject to change. Every aspect of your legal separation agreement or divorce settlement is enforceable as written, unless you take the appropriate legal action necessary for a formal change.
Equitable Distribution of Property
Along with resolving child custody issues, reaching agreement on equitable distribution of property can be one of the most difficult aspects of divorce. We will aggressively pursue the most favorable settlement possible for you—as we have done in numerous cases involving millions in assets—working closely with trusted financial experts to build your case.
Prenuptial Agreements
The traditional view that prenuptial agreements are somehow “unromantic” is far outweighed by practical considerations and the need to protect your future. We have represented numerous couples as they work through the considerations and details of developing a legally sound, mutually acceptable prenuptial agreement.
Child Custody & Visitation
If you are facing divorce and anticipate any challenge in resolving child custody or parenting time, working with an experienced lawyer is essential. Our firm is devoted to vigorously representing men and women as they protect and pursue positive outcomes.
