Family law in North Carolina - brief guide
If you are considering divorce or another legal issue related to your family in North Carolina, it is important that you understand the laws of the state. Every state has its own set of laws regarding marriage, divorce, child custody and support, adoption, alimony and more. In North Carolina, marriages must be performed by an authorized officiant such as a minister or magistrate. The parties must also obtain a valid marriage license from the register of deeds office in their county before they can legally marry. Divorce may be granted on the grounds of either incurable insanity or separation for at least one year with appropriate filing fees paid. Once filed, a decision will be issued within 30 days.
Property division
is based on a system of equitable distribution. All marital property is divided in a manner deemed fair and just by the court, taking into consideration factors such as current economic conditions, length of marriage and the parties’ earning potentials.
Child custody
proceedings are conducted under a system of “best interest of the child,” where the court considers all relevant information to determine which parent will provide better care for the child. This may include visitation rights and decisions regarding legal custody.
Child support
must be ordered in North Carolina if either or both parents have substantial income or assets that can be used to contribute financially to their children’s needs. The amount and duration of support depend on various factors, including parental incomes, lifestyle necessities of each parent, the child’s age and health needs.
Adoption
laws in North Carolina are established by the state Department of Social Services. In order to adopt a child from another country, prospective parents must meet certain requirements, including submitting a home study to the court and obtaining approval from both their home country and the United States. Prospective adoptive parents must also undergo criminal background checks and complete other paperwork before their adoption can be finalized.
Alimony
is sometimes available in North Carolina as long as one of the spouses has enough resources to pay for it. The amount of alimony awarded depends on various factors such as the length of marriage, employment potential of each spouse, lifestyle considerations and more.
It is important to understand North Carolina family law if you are facing a legal dilemma involving your family. Contact an experienced attorney for more specific information about laws pertaining to your particular situation.
