Family Law and Divorce

Are you or someone you know facing a separation or a divorce?  Are you thinking about child custody, child support, separation agreements, alimony, post separation support and equitable distribution.  You may have been served a Complaint (lawsuit) by your spouse, or perhaps you have been handed a Separation Agreement and asked to sign.  Perhaps you are just starting to research divorce laws in North Carolina and are worried about how you are going to survive, divide your property or pay your bills.   If you have children they are central to your concerns as well.  It is so easy to get lost in the legal jargon and the opinions of friends and family.  Let me encourage you to BROWSE OUR SITE and learn more about divorce law and how it works at your leisure.  At Doyle & Doyle, PA, we have over 25 years of combined experience helping people face divorce and make new lives for themselves and their families.  We work tirelessly to protect our Client’s financial future and help them meet or exceed their goals.  We have the experience, knowledge and ability to help you as well.

If you are dealing with separation or divorce, we encourage you to contact us for a no obligation consultation. Our first step is to have an initial consult with each Client (which can even be done by phone or skype), and in that meeting we listen closely to our Client’s situation (their lives, problems, history of their marriage and divorce, assets and goals). We also inform our Client’s of how alimony, support, custody and property distribution work in practical terms, and how we can go about pressing or defending these claims.  We can also discuss how the county you live in, such as Wake County versus  Johnston County, can affect your case.  Finally, we provide each Client a framework of the different options for acheiving their goals and solving their problems.  Naturally, an initial consult will not answer every question or deal with every contingency, but we have refined our intial consultation presentations to provide the most valuable information to our Client’s at the very beginning, and more details will follow.  We feel strongly at Doyle & Doyle, PA that an informed Client is happier and more confident, and this makes them more powerful.  You can make an initial consultation appointment by calling or using the contact us link available through the website.

Once you have become our Client, we work diligently to provide outstanding service, help you set and achieve your goals, and make the best use of your resources.  We know that you are trusting your lawyer to use their time and money wisely and work very hard to limit the costs and fees that burden our Clients.  Naturally, litigating a case can be expensive and is very time consuming if done properly, however costly trials can often be avoided by early preparation combined with skillful and aggressive negoation techniques.  Our approach is to challenge the unreasonable spouse hard, and demonstrate that we are fully prepared to go to Court, and that it will be not a pleasant experience for them to experience.  Often, this can turn the unreasonable, demanding or belligerant spouse into a much more reasonable negoating partner where cases are settled fairly. If not, we take them to Court and use our years of experience in family law and family court for you.

While we firmly beleive in an aggressive negotiating posture, our firm promotes the idea that we fight, but with purpose.  This means taking an aggressive position from the beginning, but always evaluating settlement offers fairly and honestly, and making good decisions about when to fight and when not to.  At Doyle & Doyle, we do not believe it serves our client’s best interests to create fights were none exist only to bill our clients for our time in the process. We believe it is important to have a skilled attorney that excels in the Courtroom, but we also believe an attorney serves the role of adviser and counselor to help our clients make decisions about when to fight and when to realize you have already won.

Finally, we strive to be of assistance to our Clients in every aspect of divorce, and accordingly we work regularly with a team of fantastic counselors, accountants, realtors, appraisers and other professionals who can provide assistance when called upon.
