How is child custody determined in a divorce?

Child custody is typically determined based on the best interests of the child. Courts consider various factors, including the child’s wishes, the parents’ ability to provide a stable home, the child’s relationship with each parent, and any history of abuse or neglect.

What is spousal support?

Spousal support, also known as alimony or maintenance, is a financial payment made by one spouse to the other after a divorce. The amount and duration of spousal support are typically determined based on factors such as the length of the marriage, the earning capacity of each spouse, and the standard of living during the marriage.

How is property divided in a divorce

Property division in a divorce depends on the laws of the state where the divorce is filed. Generally, marital property (acquired during the marriage) is divided equitably between the spouses. However, separate property (acquired before the marriage or by gift or inheritance) may not be subject to division.
