Cypress High-Asset Divorce Lawyer

Separate Property Division

Any property that was obtained before the marriage by either individual, is classified as separate property and belongs to that individual solely. Separate property can also be acquired during the marriage as a gift, inheritance, or personal injury settlement. An experienced Cypress divorce attorney can help you determine what property is considered separate property.

Important Considerations

There are lots of important factors that you and your Cypress family law attorneys will need to take into account when dealing with the divorce law involved in your case.

Including:

Child Support & Child Support Modifications

If you and your partner have children from your current or past marriages, child support is often a volatile subject.

Marriage is a partnership that allows both parties to share certain responsibilities. This means that you and your partner agree to ensure that all of your children’s needs, emotional, physical, and financial, are met between you.

Leaving this partnership does not mean that the child no longer has these needs. It means you will need to come to an arrangement in order to see that these needs are still met between the two of you after you have divorced.

At Skillern Firm Divorce & Child Custody Lawyers, we understand that alongside the division of assets, child support, and child custody are going to be the toughest issues to deal with. That’s why we use a mix of mediation and negotiation to help you and your partner come to an amicable agreement.

This helps prevent a breakdown of communication that cause each party to make decisions that are not in the best interest of their child in the heat of the moment.

Here at Skillern Firm Divorce & Child Custody Lawyers, we will remind both parties that the needs of the child always come first. This means we will work tirelessly to protect their rights and future as well as yours.
