The legal aspects of family relationships are something we tend to take for granted until a need for some kind of change or court decree comes about. We are all familiar with typical ways that families grow naturally through marriages and births — and with typical ways that families grow smaller through deaths and divorces of extended family members. But when a divorce or child custody dispute hits home, the necessary legal processes may perplex and confuse someone who has never gone through this before.
Divorce Or Child Custody Determination Can Be A Daunting Process
Dividing a household into two households and establishing new interactive patterns with one's own children can seem worrisome and complicated. These are not only emotional issues between family members; they are also legal ones involving family members or family units and society "out there" — that is, interactions with schools, doctors, banks, tax authorities and property assessors are impacted by one's marital status and child custody rights.
