A Coordinated Approach To Complex Family Matters
Many family law cases involve multiple, interconnected issues. A divorce, for example, is rarely just about ending a marriage. It often requires addressing several different matters at once, from the distribution of high-value assets to custody and visitation arrangements.
Our attorneys at Walz Law Offices have extensive experience in cases that involve:
- Protective orders and domestic violence, especially in divorce cases
- Complex financial situations, including the division of agricultural land, business assets and other high-value property
- Relocation disputes in child custody cases, helping clients adhere to the legal requirements while protecting their parental rights
- Cases where protective orders, criminal matters or immigration status intersect with family law issues
Our team understands how different parts of a case affect one another, allowing for a cohesive and coordinated legal strategy. As your legal counsel, our goal is to provide a single point of contact for all your legal needs and concerns so you do not have to manage a complex situation on your own.
Keep Your Business Out Of Court
What if we told you that many divorcing couples never see the inside of a courtroom? It’s true.
In many of the family law situations we have dealt with, mediation has proven useful in helping both parties achieve workable agreements about children, property and finances discreetly, and efficiently without ever having to go to court.
However, if it’s impossible to find solutions on which both parties can agree, you can depend on us to advocate for your best interests in any Nebraska court.
Why Local Nebraska Family Law Experience Matters
Family law in Nebraska has unique rules and procedures. For example, the state has specific requirements before courts can finalize a divorce. One of the spouses must have lived in the state for at least one year, or the marriage must have occurred in Nebraska, and at least one spouse has resided there ever since.
There is also a mandatory waiting period of 60 days between the filing of the divorce petition and the final decree, though a judge can waive this in certain circumstances. It’s important to work with local attorneys who understand these nuances and how they can impact your case.
Our legal team is also experienced in Nebraska’s judicial system. This local knowledge gives us an advantage, allowing us to tailor our arguments and approach in the court where your case will be heard.
