Guidelines for Painting a Positive Picture For The Judge

Dec 28, 2008

by Natalie Bower, Esq. (Cordell & Cordell)

Many clients begin their divorce cases believing that both spouses are in agreement on all of the issues, only to later find themselves facing trial. 

The realization of your case going to trial can be nerve-racking and overwhelmingly frightening. 

First and foremost, know that it is okay to be nervous.  It is your future and your children in the judge’s hands, so anxious feelings are expected and even healthy! 

By remembering a few simple things, you can alleviate the anxiety and walk into the courtroom feeling confident.

When Should I Modify Child Support?

Nov 03, 2008

by Clarissa Finnell Esq., Cordell & Cordell, PC

I am often asked by clients when and if they should modify their child support obligation.  The answer to this question hinges on many factors.  States will vary in the way they calculate support.  Most States base child support on one or all of the following factors: father’s income, mother’s income, number of children, childcare expenses, health insurance premiums, and number of overnights the children spend with each parent.  A substantial change in any of these factors may warrant a modification.

Keeping The Judge Informed

Apr 21, 2008

By: Sarah Ward, JD

Imagine this, you and your spouse have been having problems and your spouse informs you that she has taken a job in another state. She further informs you that she will be taking your child with her. While no divorce proceedings have begun, you feel it is inevitable. What do you do? Wait and see if she files in this other state or take action and commence proceedings yourself? Let’s say you wait and see what happens.

Your Best Behavior

Mar 17, 2008

By: Joseph Cordell, Cordell & Cordell P.C.

It is the business of a general to be serene and inscrutable, impartial and self-controlled.
-Sun Tzu, The Art of War, circa 2000BC

From commencement to conclusion, a custody dispute often follows a protracted and sinuous course. In the meantime, the combatants, unfamiliar with this strange new terrain, all too often rely on their instincts and impulses to survive. This is often a disastrous strategy. In a heated divorce, your natural instincts will likely dictate conduct and comments that are directly inconsistent with your objectives. This is understandable given the depth of the offense and the gravity of the dispute. The accompanying welter of feelings provides a poor but powerful compass that unfailingly misdirects your conduct on key occasions.

The Importance Of Being Honest With Your Attorney

Mar 05, 2008

By: Kristin Zurek, Cordell & Cordell PC

During contested custody litigation, it’s important for clients to remember that all of their actions are taking place under the watchful eye of the Court. Whether it’s that late night bender at the bar, the fight between you and your ex that was reported to the police, or even a single lapse into illegal drug use – you can bet that during the litigation, someone will find out about it.
I recognize that it is next to impossible to be on your best behavior throughout contentious, emotional, and often lengthy litigation. So, what if there was that one night when you drove home after the bar and got pulled over for a DUI?  What do you do?
