Understanding Your Rights in a Family Law Case
Knowing your rights is the first step toward protecting the things that matter most to you, and we’re here to help. Whether you’re facing divorce, battling for child custody, seeking child support, or fighting to maintain your parental rights, knowing your legal position can empower you to make informed decisions.
Divorce Rights
North Carolina law allows for the equitable division of marital assets. This means your property, finances, and debts will be examined with the goal of getting a fair distribution. Keep in mind that fair is not the same as equal, and we’re here to provide strong advocacy for your side of the story.
You also have the right to pursue or challenge claims for spousal support. Our team will guide you through these legal and financial complexities with care and precision.
Child Custody and Support Rights
If children are involved, your rights as a parent become a top priority. Child custody in North Carolina focuses on the best interest of the child, which includes their physical, emotional, and educational needs. Both parents have equal rights when seeking custody, and arrangements can be customized to fit the family dynamic. Additionally, you have the right to request or contest child support to ensure your child’s needs are met.
We understand that these matters get even more complicated in immigrant families who may face unique concerns, such as visa-related issues. Attorney Dove knows how to help manage these challenges and craft a strategy that safeguards your rights and security.
Parental Rights
Parental rights are fundamental and preserving them calls for a thorough understanding of North Carolina law. From adoption matters to defending against termination of parental rights, our team is deeply committed to advocating for families. Attorney Dove’s compassionate approach means that even in the most high-stakes situations, you have an advocate who truly listens and fights for your family’s needs.
