Divorce is rarely easy. After sharing a life with another person for months, years, or even decades, it’s likely that you have become dependent on each other in many ways, some obvious, and some not-so-obvious.

During divorce, couples often become more aware of the ways that they have supported their partner, and how their partner has supported them. While we agree that a marriage should be a partnership, it can be difficult to predict what the world is going to look like for the two individuals involved when that partnership is dissolved. This is typically where spousal support comes in.

In today’s blog post from AF Law, we are going to discuss some of the basic things that you should understand about spousal support. Read on to learn more, and if you find yourself in need of assistance from an experienced Sacramento family attorney, reach out to the AF Law team today.

Most co-parenting agreements weren’t created with the challenges of the pandemic in mind, so it’s easy to understand why parents are having difficulty deciding what is best for their children during this time. Many parents have found themselves wondering if it’s safe for their child to go back and forth between households and with a whole other host of other questions and concerns pertaining to their child’s safety and health.

From protecting your child and focusing on both their mental and physical health to keeping high-risk individuals in your household safe to balancing your job and other responsibilities, it can be incredibly hard to know which decisions are best for you, your child, and your co-parent.

In today’s blog post, we are going to discuss some of the challenges that co-parents are finding the most difficult to deal with amongst the pandemic. Read on to learn more, and if you are in need of legal advice for your child custody situation, reach out to the Sacramento law team at AF Law.

If you have been through a divorce, or are currently going through one, you have likely heard of alimony. Alimony, or spousal support, occurs when one spouse is ordered by the court to pay the other money either during or after the divorce. Spousal support can be put in place to help one individual maintain their marital standard of living, while they work on getting a degree, or other means to be able to support themselves.

In today’s blog post, we are going to discuss the different types of alimony in Sacramento.

You are over the moon in love and can’t wait to get married. In fact, the date is getting closer. The venue has been picked out. The flowers have been arranged. The bridesmaid dresses have been ordered. And a wedding photographer has been chosen. However, there is something hovering over you that you are struggling to finalize before the wedding and that is a prenuptial agreement.

A prenuptial agreement has such a negative connotation associated with it. If you ask for one, it’s almost as if you are demonized and that this somehow reflects on the love you have for the other person. However, there’s nothing wrong with being realistic, and since half of all marriages in the United States end in divorce, it’s best to prepare for the worst case scenario.

AF Family law is a divorce and family law firm in the Sacramento area. We specialize in all things related to divorce, such as child custody, alimony, and prenuptial agreements. Below, we’ll offer up tips on how to ask for a...

There are some things in life that you have to do even though you have no desire to do them. For example, cleaning your toilet usually does not rank high on the happiness scale of things to do in this world, but it’s something that must be done for sanitary reasons. Cooking dinner after a long day of work and running the kids to and fro is something you may have no desire to do at times, yet you have to eat, and you prefer to eat something nutritious rather than something not.

Divorce is another one of those events in life that you’d rather not do, but if your relationship is coming to an end, it’s a necessary step so that you can move on with your life.

The team of divorce attorneys at AF Family law understand that you’d rather not be sitting in the chair in front of us, telling us the details of your life and trying to figure out what your life will look like once this is over. However, we’re glad that you have chosen us as your divorce lawyer of choice in Sacramento....
