“He helped me get an appropriate agreement with a very uncooperative individual. I would recommend him to anyone.”
Family law disputes often rank among the most emotionally charged legal matters that a family law attorney may handle. At Sceviour & Associates, we comprehend the gravity of your situation and the potential implications for you and your loved ones. While family law cases can be inherently distressing, they need not remain so. Our approach involves collaborating closely with our clients to redirect their focus towards their desires and needs, away from the resentment and disillusionment often linked with family law issues.
The scope of family law extends to scenarios where situations have deteriorated, necessitating resolution. Instances where marriages are irreparable and divorces are unavoidable arise. Issues surrounding debt allocation, asset entitlement, and support responsibilities frequently emerge as points of contention. The determination of parental roles and responsibilities can escalate into emotionally charged conflicts.
Furthermore, family law plays a role in preempting minor disagreements from escalating into full-fledged disputes that lead to relationship breakdowns. Antenuptial and postnuptial agreements offer frameworks for potential future divorce settlements. Collaborative parenting arrangements, child support agreements, and visitation schedules can be designed while amicability prevails. By calmly assessing their circumstances, individuals can find resolutions to financial concerns and spousal support matters.
It’s important to acknowledge that even after divorce, former spouses might maintain some degree of contact. Child and spousal support might remain relevant, and co-parenting continues to involve time-sharing. Often, it’s in the best interest of neither party to sever all ties completely.
Nonetheless, this doesn’t imply forfeiting one’s rights or the best interests of their child to avoid litigation. The family law practitioners at Sceviour & Associates in Virginia Beach are prepared to go to trial if it serves the client’s best interests.
