Fighting For Your Rights

December 9, 2013 in Family Law /by Gretchen Boger

Few non-lawyers realize that divorce proceedings can make the parties involved vulnerable to criminal punishment. Each time that a judge makes an order about child custody, spousal support, child support, or anything else, the parties are required to comply. If a party does not comply with one of the orders, the opposing party can file […]

Grandparents Have Visitation Rights, Too!

November 14, 2013 in Family Law /by Gretchen Boger

Popular television personality Bethenny Frankel is waging a full-blown (and very public) divorce and contentious custody battle with her soon-to-be-ex-husband – and her newest attack on Mr. Hoppy is not regarding him, but his parents: she wants to limit the grandparents’ time with her three-year-old daughter, Bryn. So does this mean that Bryn, who reportedly […]

DIY Divorce Success: The Exception, Not The Rule

September 5, 2013 in Family Law /by Gretchen Boger

Recently the Huffington Post took a look at the risks of the new “Do-It-Yourself Divorce” trend, and we agree with their findings. Of course, anyone can get a divorce without an attorney, but it is not for everyone. This is especially true because many individuals underestimate what it will really take to dismantle their marriage, […]

July 19, 2013 in Family Law /by Gretchen Boger

When actor Jason Patric broke up with his long-time girlfriend, Danielle, he told her he didn’t have any money to give her at the end of their ten-year-relationship – but he could give her his sperm so she could have a baby.  In return, Danielle agreed to never tell anyone, never to ask for child […]

The Indian Child Welfare Act: Child Custody and Adoption Issues Hit The Supreme Court

June 13, 2013 in Family Law /by Gretchen Boger

Family law cases, albeit important, are almost never heard by the U.S. Supreme Court because the Tenth Amendment typically leaves family matters to the states. However, a recent custody clash over an adorable Native American girl has found its way to our nation’s highest court, giving the Justices an opportunity to scrutinize the 1978 Indian […]

Retirement Benefits: I Earned Them So They Are Mine, Right?

February 7, 2013 in Family Law /by Gretchen Boger

When parties consider divorce or separation they are rightfully concerned about their property. For example, parties may contemplate who will get the house, the dog, the cars, or even the family’s prized Dyson vacuum cleaner. But what about retirement benefits? They don’t typically rank at the top of the “coveted marital property” list, but maybe […]
