Our legal team can negotiate with your ex-spouse or petition the court to enforce or modify the decree. Likewise, we can defend your rights if your ex-spouse seeks to unfairly change the terms of your agreement.

Sometimes couples can resolve their legal issues in a divorce without a bitter and expensive court fight. This process is known as “uncontested divorce” in the state of Georgia. A couple can pursue an uncontested divorce to settle issues like property division, alimony, and child support and custody between themselves.
Our Lawrenceville uncontested divorce lawyers understand that some clients want to resolve their divorce quickly and amicably. Our family law attorneys will protect and advocate for your rights in an uncontested divorce.
Couples often experience financial difficulties after a divorce, especially those used to surviving on two incomes. Likewise, a stay-at-home spouse who relied on their partner for support may have difficulty maintaining their lifestyle after divorce. Georgia courts may award spousal support, or “alimony,” to enable a person to support themselves after their marriage is dissolved. Our Lawrenceville spousal support lawyers can help you argue for alimony and obtain the support you need to take care of yourself.

You may wonder how you will support your children after your divorce. A custodial parent is entitled to child support from a child’s other parent to help with the costs of raising their child. Georgia courts consider each parent’s income to calculate child support.
At Crystal Wright Law, we know that divorce can cause financial hardships for your children. Our Lawrenceville child support lawyers can help you get the child support you need to care for your family.
view practice areaPaternity and Legitimation
Paternity is often a complex issue in Georgia. A father may file a legitimation action against the mother of his child to enforce his visitation and custodial rights. A mother may file a paternity action to legally establish the paternity of a child’s father, potentially entitling her to child support.
At Crystal Wright Law, we know how sensitive paternity issues can be. Our Lawrenceville paternity lawyers can help you establish paternity to enforce your rights and protect your children.
view practice areaProperty Division
Property division is typically one of the most hotly-contested issues in divorce matters. Georgia courts use “equitable distribution” to divide property among divorcing spouses. Spouses aren’t necessarily guaranteed a 50/50 split. Our Lawrenceville property division lawyers can advocate for your rights to your marital property. We will investigate what assets you and your ex-spouse own, including hidden assets, and assess their value. This will arm us with the evidence to fight for your preferred property division.
