How do I get divorced?
Divorce, also known as dissolution of marriage, can be a difficult time in any person’s life. You may have questions regarding issues involving your children, such as custody (now referred to as time-sharing), decision-making authority, and child support. Further, you want to ensure that your property rights are secured. You may also want to know whether there are special considerations for a military divorce or an uncontested divorce. It is important to have a family law attorney who will advise you of your rights and listen to your needs.
Family Diplomacy recommends that any person going through divorce strongly consider utilizing the Collaborative Divorce process.
