Protecting parenting time with your child after divorce

On behalf of The Law Offices of Jon R. Disrud on Monday, August 5, 2019.

After parents divorce, it is often difficult for them to adjust to sharing parenting responsibilities and privileges fairly, even after the court approves their custody order. While it is normal to feel the strain of co-parenting, some parents behave in ways that are simply incompatible with modern parenting plans.

If your child's other parent interferes with your court-ordered time with your child, this behavior may qualify as parenting time interference. Courts take parenting and custody plans seriously, because they lay out the specific rights of each parent, and each right deserves protection. Parents who habitually or severely violate these agreements may suffer significant consequences.

Upon creating a comprehensive estate plan, you'll feel a sense of relief. You now have a plan in place to protect you and your assets while you're alive, as well as after your death.

Many people assume that the divorce process is always the same, and people with this assumption may be surprised to learn that it is untrue. Texas couples who are considering divorce can select the divorce process that make the most sense for their situation.

If you and your spouse are considering ending your marriage, it can be beneficial to understand the options, so you can select the one that best meets your needs. In general, a couple can choose a contested divorce or an uncontested divorce.

Understand your right with a denied benefits application

On behalf of The Law Offices of Jon R. Disrud on Wednesday, June 5, 2019.

As a veteran, you deserve everyone's respect and support. You went through trials and tribulations so that others could live comfortable lives. If you suffered an injury while on tour or as a result of your time in the military, then you deserve the benefits that were promised to you.

If you file for VA disability benefits and have your application denied, it can be extremely frustrating. Fortunately, you do have a right to an appeal. The bad part about appeals is that they can take a long time. That's why it's so important to work with your attorney and make sure you submit everything accurately.

How is child support amounts determined?

On behalf of The Law Offices of Jon R. Disrud on Tuesday, April 30, 2019.

Ending a marriage puts many parents in serious anxiety of their financial stability. When you have a child to raise, you are more likely going to expend large amounts of money on the costs of raising that child. During your marriage, you probably didn’t have to feel the tight reigns of a budget as much as when you are on your own. Either way, you need to know exactly what to expect for the financial reliability you need when raising a child.

It is common to ask questions regarding the child support process, including: “Who is responsible for paying child support?”, “How much will be owed?”, “What factors contribute to the amount?”, and “Can I modify my child support amounts in the future?”. To have these questions answered directly pertaining to your situation, you need the advice of a family lawyer.
