When Should I Hire a Family Law Attorney in Fort Myers and Cape Coral, Florida?

Hiring a family attorney is a personal decision, and an important one. Regardless of what stage of life you’re in or what is currently happening in your life, there is probably an area of your life that could benefit from family law counsel. When is the right time to hire a family law attorney?

While there are many areas and issues in which a family law attorney in Fort Myers and Cape Coral, Florida could be useful, and necessary, divorce and child custody issues are at the top of the list.

Divorce can be an emotionally draining and difficult process, but even if the divorce is a smooth one and both parties get along and are respectful, it can still be an arduous task to unwind two lives that have been wound together tightly over many years. There is so much to consider—custody of the children, real estate holdings, spousal support, and more.

Child Custody & Child Support

There is nothing more important than caring for your children. The court doesn’t know the intricate details of your family life, so you need an advocate; you need a family law attorney that understands you and your family dynamic and will help you to get the best outcome for your children. Custody battles can produce a lot of anxiety for all parties. The Law Offices of Eve McClurg, PA will work to manage the process and advocate for you and your children’s interest in regard to custody. And when it comes to child support, you may not be in the best frame of mind to make solid decisions pertaining to financial matters, especially if the divorce is contentious. This in and of itself is a major reason that hiring a family law attorney early is a great idea. Divorces can be emotional, but your financial decisions should never be. And as a divorce proceeding is stressful, under stress many people settle for a child support agreement that won’t actually meet their financial needs. So whether you’re in Fort Myers and Cape Coral, Florida, or somewhere else across our beautiful state, you’ll need an experienced family law attorney to handle your child custody and child support negotiation, and agreements, to ensure you get the best results, for you and your children.

What Assets Can You Keep During Divorce In Florida?

In a marriage, many agreements, accounts, deeds, etc. are often jointly signed or held. A marriage is, after all, a union, so when divorce happens there is a lot to comb through, to return all accounts, holdings, etc. back to the individual parties. If the divorce is filled with emotion and anxiety, and is not amicable, then this process of going through all the legal issues that must be dealt with can be extremely difficult. But even if the divorcing parties are on the same page with most issues, you still need a family law attorney to guide you through, to ensure that all parties know what to expect, and that you come away with the outcome you were hoping for as much as is possible, in accordance with the law.
