Divorce
Working together during a divorce is the best way to reduce stress and save time and money. This isn’t always possible. Collaborative Divorce means that both parents sign an agreement to resolve any disputes outside of a courtroom. These agreements are reached through negotiation and collaboration. Learn more →
Child Support
Changes to child support can be based on a number of factors including a significant change in the age of the child or specific medical or educational needs. Changes can also be based on the circumstances surrounding the parent such as loss of a job or significant changes in the financial situation.
Child Custody and Visitation
In order to modify child custody, you must file a court action to change a final court order. This order might be called a Custody Decree, a Residential Schedule, or a Parenting Plan. Requesting a modification is basically asking the court to sign a new Parenting Plan. These changes might be “minor,” making only small changes, or they could fall into the category of a “major” modification such as a change of custody. You will have to prove to the court that there is a good reason for the requested change. I can help you with any modification needs.
Adoption
Adoption can be an emotional and trying process. I recognize that many of those wishing to adopt have struggled with reproductive difficulties or frustrations triggered by the bureaucracy and politics of international adoption. In addition, the legal process can be complex and delicate. As an experienced adoption attorney, I possess the knowledge and dedication necessary to guide you through the process with confidence and clarity.
Guardianship
As you create an estate plan, you can nominate a guardian for your minor children to ensure that, should the unthinkable happen, they will be left in trusted and capable hands. You can designate a trusted individual of your choosing to serve as your child’s legal and physical guardian, overseeing their healthcare, education, financial needs, and general well-being until they come of age. You can also create a guardianship for an incapacitated adult who is unable to care for themselves.
Spousal Support
Some couples at divorce establish non-modifiable alimony or maintenance at the time of the divorce for stability and certainty in their post-divorce financial planning. For those who do not establish non-modifiable maintenance, a change in financial circumstances is necessary to modify alimony or maintenance. Some of these changes can include a change of employer, termination, reduced salary, and retirement. The party seeking the modification must prove the change in circumstances.
Legal Separation
If you live in North Carolina and are facing the emotional prospect of divorce, legal separation, child support, spousal support, or other family law matters, it is critical to have the help of a compassionate and dedicated family law attorney. I can help you find a healthy way of achieving your goals and getting a fresh start.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
In any family law matters or estate planning needs it is critical to work with an experienced divorce attorney and wills lawyer to ensure that you are protected and informed. I am dedicated to each and every client and understand the need to listen carefully and take a unique approach to each case in order to serve you in the best way possible.
Wills
Protecting your legacy for future generations with an enforceable will or trust is important. A solid estate plan will help your family to avoid the stress and cost of probate court. If you find yourself dealing with the probate process already, I provide aggressive and knowledgeable representation to protect your rights and interests. Contact me at (919) 688-6860 to begin creating a valid and professional estate plan. I can assist you in the creation of simple wills, trusts, and power of attorney. Learn more →
Power of Attorney
Power of attorney documents allow you to designate a trusted individual to act on your behalf, should you become unable to manage your own affairs or make important medical decisions. An advance directive identifies what kinds of health care interventions or care you would like to receive in the event of incapacitation. I can walk you through the process of putting a power of attorney in place to ensure your healthcare wishes are known and respected, no matter what the future may hold.
