Divorces In Tempe

Divorce in Tempe, also known as a dissolution of marriage, is the restoring of husband and wife to single person. Divorces involve the division of property, assets, and liabilities, as well as a possible award of spousal maintenance.

Residency: To file for a divorce in Arizona, you must meet the necessary residency requirements. This includes that you or your spouse have maintained residence in Arizona for ninety days prior to filing for petition for dissolution of marriage. Our Tempe attorney at Lewis Labadie can provide the legal guidance you need during your divorce process.

Annulment: An annulment is rare; however, some situations warrant the need to void the marriage. This legal issue is complex. Most people will not qualify. It is best to contact an attorney, if you feel your marriage is void for fraud, duress, or any other reason.

Property division: As a community property state, the State of Arizona requires that all property acquired during a marriage be divided equitably, which often means equally (50/50). Our Tempe lawyer can help you determine how your assets should be divided and protected.

Divorce With Children

Custody (Legal Decision-Making) and Parenting Time:

Child custody, now known as legal decision-making and parenting time, is the most pressing concern on a parent’s mind during divorce and paternity proceedings. The different facets of custody can be granted to either parent or to both. Legal decision-making involves decisions about the child’s welfare (including educational, religious and medical decisions) whereas parenting time involves the child’s living arrangements. If you decide to have joint decision-making, you must sign a parenting plan, in accordance with Arizona law. A parenting plan must include:

  • Provisions for how the parent will be involved in the caring for the child
  • How the major decisions will be made together.
  • Information regarding a residential plan.
  • Method of resolving disputes.
  • Provision for periodic review of the parenting plan.
  • Statement that says that both parties understand that “joint” does not necessarily mean equal parenting time.
  • Child Support

    Arizona child support is based on the Income Shares Model. Factors that affect child support include the needs of the child, the resources and needs of both the custodial and non-custodial parent, the standard of living the child is used to, and other conditions that may affect the child.

    You can also be prepare and prevent unneeded harship by drafting a prenuptial agreement or postnuptial agreement.
