Divorce
If the parties dispute any issue, however, a contested divorce must be filed instead. A contested divorce takes much longer to conclude, and involves a great deal more than a nominal divorce proceeding. The parties may need to visit the courthouse for more than one hearing, in some cases even a trial. The necessary documents can be complicated and difficult to understand without the assistance of an experienced Rhode Island divorce attorney. The entire process can take years to conclude.

Divorce
If the parties dispute any issue, however, a contested divorce must be filed instead. A contested divorce takes much longer to conclude, and involves a great deal more than a nominal divorce proceeding. The parties may need to visit the courthouse for more than one hearing, in some cases even a trial. The necessary documents can be complicated and difficult to understand without the assistance of an experienced Rhode Island divorce attorney. The entire process can take years to conclude.
Child Support
A divorcing couple may file what is known as a nominal divorce if they agree to the division of the marital estate (comprised of any property, tangible or intangible, acquired during the marriage), custody of minor children, visitation, and child support. The process for this type of Rhode Island divorce involves filing the necessary documents with the clerk of the Family Court, serving the paperwork on the other party (defendant), appearing for a hearing, and finalizing the divorce within a specified time frame. If all goes well and as agreed, the parties can be legally divorced within three months from the date of the hearing.
Child Custody and Visitation
Relocation cases, where separation of young children from a parent will potentially and practically end a parent-child relationship, are highly complicated, and require an experienced and dedicated lawyer. Rui P. Alves is a Massachusetts and Rhode Island divorce, child custody and visitation lawyer, who has handled relocation cases in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and internationally. He can be reached at 888-273-9903 or ralves@bglaw.com for a free initial consultation about your legal needs. A native of Portugal, Rui speaks fluent Portuguese and Spanish.
