This is one of the most common questions our NYC family lawyers receive. Let's make it very clear: you can change your last name after the divorce. You can get your maiden name back. However, even though the process is not overly complicated, you need help from an attorney who knows what he's doing.
Even though you might have heard that in many cases, the mother received custody of the child, it is actually very possible for the father to succeed. In most states, the court does not favor one parent or the other based on sex. You have the same chance as your spouse to get custody. The court is concerned about the well-being of the child.
A prenuptial agreement is a contract that you and your spouse enter into before marriage. It controls your legal rights and clearly outlines what will happen to your assets in case your spouse dies or in case of a divorce. A postnuptial agreement is very similar, the only difference being that you can enter the contract after you get married.
Even though Family Court judges favor parents in custody cases, other persons can get custody in some cases. It's not uncommon for close relatives such as grandparents, aunts and uncles to get custody. However, one needs a good attorney to stand a chance in court.
If the court decides that both you and your spouse are responsible for the well-being of the child, you will probably need to define a time-sharing plan. In other words, you will have to show the court how you and your spouse plan on sharing the difficult process of your child's development. In many cases, the time sharing plan includes the amount of time each parent can spend with the child. To make sure you get the best outcome from your case, you should definitely hire our NYC family attorneys and have them represent you in court.
