Lexington Divorce Attorney
Family Law in Lexington, SC
On paper, divorce is a relatively simple action. It is the dissolution of the legal and property rights inherent in a marriage. In experience, it is often the most emotionally and financially taxing experience an individual will ever live through. The Law Offices of Andrew B. Farley, LLC provides comprehensive family law representation at every stage of
the divorce process, advising you of your rights and advocating on your behalf to achieve a favorable outcome. I have been elected President of the Lexington County Bar Association for 2012, and in addition to being a member in good standing with the South Carolina Bar Association, I have been admitted to practice in every court in the state, as well as the 4th District Federal Court. Perhaps most important, I am committed to securing the best possible result for you and will make myself available for questions and guidance 24/7, giving you the support you need when you need it.
You can significantly reduce the chances of a long, drawn out legal battle by retaining a Lexington, SC divorce attorney as early as possible to guide you through this ordeal. I will keep you informed and involved, and you will not have to wonder what is next or what you should do at any point. Going through this along can only add to the difficulty that is likely to be faced. My thorough understanding with this process can help alleviate this burden and ease the challenges faced in divorce. Whether you are seeking a
no-fault divorce or if you have grounds such as adultery, habitual drunkenness or abandonment, I will do everything I can to obtain a fair settlement. I provide clients with personal attention and consider it extremely important for you to receive the outcome you are looking for.
Working with an attorney is especially critical when you have children. Legal battles over child custody have the potential to cause considerable emotional trauma to the children, and I will strive to resolve the issue in your favor while limiting the impact of the dispute on your children. It is highly desirable to resolve such questions as custody,
visitation and
child support out of court when at all possible, as avoiding intervention from the judge will allow you to maintain greater control over the proceedings. These matters need to be dealt with by a professional with the skill and understanding to handle them in the correct manner. When you are going through a divorce, one of the initial steps that should be taken is to speak to an attorney. Fill out a
free case evaluation form with as much information as possible and I can get started reviewing your case and determining how I can help you.
Divorce Lawyer Serving Lexington
The court will not approve your divorce until every outstanding question has been answered, including property division and
spousal support. These issues are generally decided according to principles of equity and fairness, and having an attorney by your side to argue on your behalf can dramatically increase your chances of a favorable result. My firm is also available to represent you in the months and years following a divorce, if you need to petition for
modifications to court orders. When you want to change the terms of custody, visitation or alimony, you will require the approval of the judge, otherwise you can be charged with contempt of court for failure to abide by the final decree of divorce. This is especially important if you need to make a
relocation with your children. In addition to family law matters, I provide
criminal defense representation to clients charged with all types of crimes. Call my firm to get started and to gain the answers you need to the questions you have. Someone from my firm is available 24/7, so that you always have the assistance you need, at any time of day.
