Divorce with Children
N/AOUTCOME: Negotiated a Final Divorce Decree that gave the father 50/50 possession of his daughter, decreased the monthly child support payments, and fairly divided the community property.
Dedicated and loving father of a young daughter was going through what he believed to be an uncontested divorce. As an extra precaution, the father hired us to review the final decree that he had recei ... ved from his wife’s attorney. We identified many clauses that were adverse towards the father, favored the mother, and were not in the best interest of the child. These clauses included the father having limited time with the child, paying excessive amounts of child support, and an unjust division of the community estate. We were able to negotiate proper terms for the father that truly represented the best interest of him and his daughter. The agreed final decree increased the father’s possession from a standard possession schedule to a 50/50 possession schedule, decreased his monthly child support payment, and resulted in a fair and equitable division of the community estate.
