We are familiar with all of the possible questions you may have about the divorce process, child custody, child support and alimony, including:
- How much will a divorce cost? The cost of a divorce depends on many factors. If the divorce is contested, it may take longer and cost more. Uncontested divorce matters can cost as little as $2,000. Speak with a lawyer about your circumstances .
- What is the difference between an uncontested divorce and a contested divorce? In an uncontested divorce, both spouses agree on each of the terms in all aspects of the divorce. If any issues are disputed, the divorce is considered contested.
- If my spouse gets remarried, can I stop paying alimony? You can stop paying spousal support only if the terms of your court order allow it. To pursue a modification of the order, consult an experienced attorney.
- My child is now 18. Can I stop paying child support? The newest Child Support Guidelines are very clear in this area. It depends on whether your child is a full-time college student, where he or she lives, and if he or she is financially dependent on either parent. Let our attorneys review your existing court order to help you more closely.
