Divorce Law

Assisting with a Range of Case Types

Helping You with Both Contested and Uncontested Divorce

The Jemison Firm can assist with:

• Uncontested Divorce: Uncontested divorce is when both parties agree on most aspects of a divorce. This type of divorce is often easier to manage than a contested divorce but may still require a lawyer to make sure everything goes smoothly.
• Contested Divorce: In a contested divorce, the former spouses disagree on at least one issue presented in the divorce. Contested divorce can sometimes change to uncontested divorce with the assistance of an attorney; otherwise, the case may go to court, where divorce lawyers can help represent your best interests.
• Legitimation: If a child is born out of wedlock, then you may need to get legitimation services to prove that there is a relationship between a child and their father.
• Name Changes: Legally changing your name can be somewhat complicated. Working with a family law attorney can provide you with the guidance you need to make the situation easier.
• Modifications of Child Support and Child Custody: There are times when existing child support and custody agreements will need to be changed. Partnering with an attorney can help you make sure everything is done correctly.
