Why Hire A Family Law Attorney?

Family law covers a wide range of topics from family-related related issues to domestic matters. Since so much depends on the outcome of these cases, there is a lot of stress involved and emotions often run very high. It takes a dedicated attorney with a lot of direct experience in family law cases to take them to a successful resolution.

At Hastings Shadmehry, our attorneys have years of experience with cases of this type and we can help you with:

  • Prenuptial Agreements – Contracts between two people who are about to be married, spelling out the rights of each party in the event of a divorce.
  • Post-nuptial Agreements – Contracts between two people who are already married and are not currently planning to divorce, spelling out the rights of each party in the event of a divorce.
  • Separation Agreements – Very similar to Prenuptial or Postnuptial Agreements, but Separation Agreements are signed at the time the parties separate; they can cover issues like child support and child custody where a Prenuptial or Postnuptial Agreement cannot.
  • Modification of Child Support, Child Custody, and Alimony – Usually a modification takes place after there has been such a substantial change in circumstance that modification of a previous order is in the best interests of the children.
  • Adoption
  • Paternity And Legitimation – Used to establish your legal rights and responsibilities regarding a child.
  • Family Violence And Restraining Orders – Primarily used to give abuse victims a way to get out of a dangerous situation.
  • Domestic Partnership Agreements – Used in place of Prenuptial Agreements because currently same-sex partners cannot legally marry or enter into state-approved civil unions in Georgia.
  • Name Changes

Family law cases can be some of the most difficult cases to navigate, and they often have the most at stake. Having a stranger decide matters this important is never a good idea. You need an experienced attorney to help you win your case so that you can move forward with your life.
