Below are some of the
frequently used terms when discussing family law issues with a
lawyer in New Hampshire.
Uncontested
Divorce: If two spouses
agree that a divorce is necessary and the terms of divorce can be
amicably reached, a great deal of money can be saved by the
parties if they proceed on an uncontested basis. This type of
Divorce saves the parties money because much of the legal fees in
a contested divorce are avoided and the parties are able to avoid
unnecessary litigation costs. Generally in the New Hampshire
courts only require thePetitioner to attend the final Divorce
hearing.
Child Custody
and Support: One of the most important issues in family law
and divorce is child custody and support. Custody is determined by
what is in the best interests of the child. There are many factors
the Courts in New Hampshire consider in deciding custody issues
and it is important that you have an attorney who can provide you
with advise on these issues. Child support is mandated in the
State of New Hampshire and determined by statute. Non-payment of
support can lead to contempt of court.
Change in
Circumstances: If you have a change circumstances since your divorce
was made final you can request additional relief from the Courts
in New Hampshire. One common example is if you or your former
spouse changed jobs and the change in income would either increase
or decrease the child support amounts.
Note: Eleanor W. Dahar, Esquire in 1994 was the Governor of the State of New
Hampshire's appointee to a legislative subcommittee charged with
recommending changes to the child support laws in the State of New
Hampshire. She often lectures on the subject of divorce and child
support.
When To Consult An
Attorney: In New Hampshire, family law and divorce cases many
times require legal consultation even before a Divorce is
filed. Issues such as assets of the marriage and potential
orders from the court regarding child custody will change
everything. Seek counsel from an attorney as soon as possible in
order to protect yourself. Attorneys can inform you of your
rights under New Hampshire Law. The Dahar Law Firm
offers free consultations, just email us or
call.
Domestic Violence -
Restraining Orders: In New Hampshire, victims of domestic
violence can petition a Court with jurisdiction for a temporary
restraining order (TRO) to limit the abusive spouse's access to
you.
