ALABAMA Part 5

THE BASIC PROCESS


All divorces, at least in the eyes of the judicial system, start with documents being filed in court, normally in the county where the parties live.  The other spouse will be notified of the filing and will be given time to respond.  A series of hearings will be held and the judge will help determine the individual process that each divorce will follow.  Some of the significant issues that will be discussed during these hearings include custody and financial support of any children, visitation with the children, financial support for both spouses, and how to divide the property and finances of the couple.  The best outcome is typically for both spouses to come to an agreement and reach a settlement during the process, but if that cannot be reached, then it will go to a trial before a judge who will make the final determinations.  We will be by your side during the entire process so that the outcome that is reached is the best possible under the circumstances for you and your family.  Contact us by calling (205) 322-1201 or by visiting our contact page.
