 by Ken McRae of Cordell & Cordell, PC A divorce case does not necessarily end when the judge signs the divorce decree. Often one party is ordered to pay maintenance, also known as alimony, to the other party. If there are minor children then child support will usually be ordered. As circumstances change it is often necessary for one of the parties to ask the court to modify its previous orders regarding the amount or duration of payments. A common situation has the former husband paying maintenance, child support or both. Questions arise when one of the parties later marries or begins living with a new partner. The consequences of remarriage are worth considering. This article will address common concerns regarding how this change of circumstances affects the payment of child support and/or maintenance.
by Ken McRae, Cordell & Cordell, PC Every field has its own set of abbreviations and acronyms. People who work in the field are comfortable using these terms but, to people who do not work in the area on a daily basis, the terminology is foreign. In domestic relations law two of the most common acronyms are COBRA and QDRO. The purpose of this article is to explain these terms and discuss how they are related to a divorce. The Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”) includes a provision governing employer provided health insurance. The purpose of the provision is to allow employees to remain insured under the company’s health insurance after they cease employment with the company. The employer is not required to pay for the coverage; the employee pays the full premium even if the employer previously paid some or all of the premium. This insurance coverage is known as COBRA insurance. COBRA coverage is an important consideration in divorce cases where the family has insurance through one spouse’s employment.

As McRae says in his article: "There are thousands of divorces where agreements can be made over a handshake or with a phone call, or an agreement sketched out on a napkin. However, unless you have supreme confidence in the character of your wife, don’t bet half your stuff and your kids on it."

by: The Attorneys of Cordell & Cordell, P.C. The parenting time schedule is an order of the court, just as much as a child support order, an order to split a 401(k), or an order giving specific personal property to one spouse or the other. Many times, the order setting out the schedule will include language such as “The parties are free to vary this schedule as they may from time to time agree” or may say that the schedule is “dependent on the children’s activities,” so that the parents have a little flexibility in rescheduling specific days or times.
