These are some of the benefits of mediation:
Post-separation support (PSS) is defined as spousal support to be paid until the earlier of either the date specified in the order of post-separation support, or an order awarding or denying alimony. Whereas alimony is defined as an order for payment for the support and maintenance of a spouse or former spouse, periodically or in a lump sum, for a specified or for an indefinite term. (more…)
In North Carolina, the law that governs the division of assets and debts in the context of divorce is called Equitable Distribution. There is a presumption under the law that an equal division of the net marital estate (the marital assets less the marital debts) is fair and equitable. (more…)
Don’t wait too long to get legal advice. Consult an attorney early on – before you separate is ideal, but as soon as possible thereafter is ideal. You’ll need to understand the law before you make changes in ownership, incur debts, or purchase property.
