What Rights Do Fathers Have During Divorce?

Regardless of what you hear and who you hear it from, in North Carolina, dads have the same rights as mothers during a divorce. You will have to take a proactive approach and work with an experienced attorney to ensure your rights are respected and protected. Most fathers fear that the court proceedings will treat them unfairly during child custody proceedings. Some spouses even use this myth to threaten good dads, even going as far as blackmailing them.

Not on our watch.

You deserve aggressive legal representation in your family law case. The Law Office of Jana K. Jones, PLLC, is here to represent you and your best interests. This is to ensure that you receive the same treatment as your soon-to-be former spouse.

As a father, you have the right to:

  • Seek primary or joint custody
  • Parenting time
  • Be involved in major decisions regarding your child

Anyone who tells you otherwise is lying to you.

Jana K. Jones, Esq.

Jana K. Jones is a Charlotte-area native who attended East Mecklenburg High School. After high school, Mrs. Jones studied sociology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH). While enrolled at the UNC-CH, she was a member of Phi Delta Phi Legal Fraternity.

Mrs. Jones mentored “at-risk” students in multiple programs including Carrboro, North Carolina’s Teens Climb High and Durham, North Carolina’s Standards Based Solutions. Mrs. Jones also participated in a UNC-CH’s MANO Program that provided English as a second language and mentoring services to immigrant women.

What Happens if You Don’t Hire a Family Law Attorney?

Many men pride themselves on their ability to take on any challenge alone, no matter how large or small. When they take that mindset into their divorce or child custody legal issues, they find themselves pitted against a system that turns its back on fathers.

We employ a broad range of strategies to help clients protect their best interests and legal rights. We have a variety of family law practice areas, including divorce cases, spousal support claims, child custody claims, and more, to help clients achieve a favorable outcome.

When you take on the legal system alone, you risk losing your livelihood as your ex takes half of everything. You risk your future financial stability when the North Carolina courts award your ex with alimony. And you risk losing the right to father your children.

The risk is too high. Call 704-275-0951 to speak with an attorney who wants you to succeed.

Does North Carolina Award Spousal Support?

The state of North Carolina does award spousal support, also known as alimony. Whether or not support is granted, and how much, is based on the financial needs of one spouse and the ability of the other party to pay. You’ve heard the nightmares of an ex being awarded alimony and draining their ex-husband’s finances for decades, even life!

Fortunately, that is not usually the case. Family courts consider many factors when determining whether to award support and for how much, including the length of the marriage, each spouse’s income, earning capacity, contributions to the household, and both spouses’ careers. The goal of alimony is to ensure both spouses can maintain the standard of living they are used to.

You worked hard, and your ex is perfectly capable of earning their own way in the world. Protect your financial well-being by contacting our law firm now.

Transparent Attorney Fees
