Spousal Support
Getting back on your feet after a divorce can be financially stressful. The laws regarding what type of support you are entitled to, how much, and for how long can be confusing and overwhelming. There are two types of spousal support in Louisiana: interim spousal support and final spousal support. Each type has its own purpose and requirements. Let me help you ensure that you are properly asking for all that you are entitled to under the law. Learn more >>
Child Support
Dividing one household into two creates a great amount of financial stress for everyone, including the children. In Louisiana, in order to protect the best interests of the children, minor children are entitled to the same level of support they would have received if their parents had not ended their relationship. Make sure your children are being awarded the amount of support they are entitled to under the law. Learn more >>
Community Property
After what may seem like a lifetime of acquiring property and debt together (or even after just a few years), dividing property and debt acquired during a marriage can be difficult and painful. Many questions need to be answered. What is mine, what is theirs, what is ours and how much is it all worth? Do I get any of my spouse’s personal injury settlement? How do we divide a business we started together? Can my spouse take the money and property my parents left me when they died? Could she be required to return her wedding ring or engagement ring? Let me answer your questions and help you settle your community property in a fair and equitable manner according to law. Learn more >>
