Viewpoint: a good divorce outcome requires a good divorce laywer

Last updated on April 8, 2021

Most of our readers in Georgia and elsewhere have likely heard the term “cookie cutter” as applied to some protocol or process, denoting it as a straightforward and standard technique that broadly — rather than individually — applies to some application.

What happens to a jointly owned home in divorce or breakup?

Last updated on April 8, 2021

Many Georgia residents are still recovering emotionally and financially from the recession that started around 2008. A big part of the recession was the collapse of the housing market.

Child custody: There’s an algorithm for that

Last updated on April 8, 2021

A writer in a recent article on family law poses this question: “How did single fatherhood go from terrifying to increasingly normal?” “Normal” is concededly a relative term, but it certainly bears noting that American households with minor children that are run by single dads had increased by a multiple of nine from 1960 to […]
