Spousal Support and Division of Property

In the Commonwealth of Virginia, alimony is handled separately from the divorce filing, so spousal support is not automatically considered by the family courts during the divorce proceedings. Spousal support is most often awarded in cases where one spouse stayed home to run the household during the marriage, or when there is a significant difference between the incomes of the divorcing spouses. Whether you need to petition for alimony or defend yourself against a request for spousal support, divorce lawyer Claudia Zucker has the experience necessary to represent you in the Virginia family courts.

Division of assets an debts during a divorce can be a difficult process. Disagreements over who should get what often arise, and assets need to be valued correctly in order to ensure equitable division. Oftentimes, neither party wants to accept responsibility for debts. Having representation from a skilled Arlington County divorce lawyer can help ensure that you aren’t left with debts that you shouldn’t be required to pay, and that you receive ownership of the property you are entitled to.

Child Support, Custody, and Visitation

The divorce process can be made especially difficult when there are children involved. Children can find themselves caught in the middle of disputes over custody, time-sharing, and child support, which can be very distressing to a child who is already struggling to accept the fact that his or her parents are divorcing. In some cases, a parent will even use children as a means of getting revenge on his or her ex by withholding child support or deliberately failing to uphold the conditions of a time-sharing agreement.

Whether you are just now divorcing and need help settling disputes over these issues, or require the services of an attorney to enforce a custody, visitation, or child support order, divorce attorney Claudia Zucker can help. She represents clients throughout Arlington County, Virginia, including Pentagon City, Clarendon, Westover, Lyon City, Rosslyn, and more.
