Divorce

Divorce affects all aspects of your life. It will have you contemplating about how much time you will spend with your children, how your property will be affected, and generally the state of your finances after the divorce. The success of a divorce is heavily dependent on the legal representation you have during the entire process: it is one of the most crucial decisions you will make. 

With J. G. Boyd Law, LLC as your legal representative during your divorce in Georgia, you are essentially choosing a dedicated family law attorney with years of experience. We do more than just litigate; we negotiate where possible with the aim of helping our clients reach their desired goals.

 

Which Goals?

Parental rights – Once a child is born outside of a marriage, a father will need to establish paternity and legitimate their child. We will guide you through the process of establishing paternity and legitimizing your child in Georgia. 

Getting custody – We understand that you want the best for your child and feel that living with you is what is best for them. We will take you through the factors that the court considers in determining whether you are suited to protect the best interests of the child and help you prove that you have what it takes to get primary physical custody.

Visitation – Visitation does not mean you will only get to see your child once a week or during the weekends alone. Visitation arrangements aim to help parents maintain and protect their relationship with their children. You and your co-parent can agree on the visitation arrangement that fits both of you, or the Court will order what they believe is best. We will help you in the negotiation process to ensure you get a favorable arrangement or represent you in the event the Court must make the final determination. We can also help you get a court order for modification of visitation. 

Protecting assets during divorce – We understand that you may want to protect your hard-earned assets during a divorce. We will go through the various aspects affecting high asset divorce in Georgia and advise you on protecting your separate property assets. 

Fair Spousal and Child Support – We will advise you on what the law says about spousal and child support and help you get the best possible outcome in a spousal support and child support matter. And if you feel that you may need spousal or child support modifications owing to your ex-spouse undergoing a significant change, we can also help with that.
