Services
Divorce or Dissolution of Marriage: Divorce is a legal Court process where the court has control over and will issue an order effecting every area of a party's life. Divorce involves your income and how much of your income you will get to keep and how much of it you will have to pay the other party for support or spousal maintenance.
Unlike child support, there is no standard formula for calculating spousal maintenance in Minnesota. The evidence that the court looks at must be relevant to the factors set forth in Minnesota Statutes 518.552. Spousal maintenance is not meant to be an income equalizer. Just because your spouse earns more does not automatically mean the court will grant maintenance.
Per Minnesota law, there is a rebuttable presumption that a parent is entitled to receive at least 25% of the parenting time. If you are an unmarried father, you must initiate a court action to obtain your legal rights to visitation and custody by obtaining a court order. Unmarried fathers have no custody or visitation rights to their children until they obtain a court order granting them rights.
Documentation and Information for your lawyer: You will want to get together information and documentation to give your divorce lawyer about your income, assets and debts incurred by both spouses during your marriage. I suggest clients provide me with the following information (and documentation) or as much of it as a client has access to.
Third party child custody cases are those initiated by a person who is someone other than the child's biological mother or biological father, and such individual is requesting to be awarded custody of a child. The request for custody is one which is made opposed to the biological parents and is a request for permanent custody.
