If you and your partner want to legally separate, but not sever the marital status, a legal separation may be for you. We are able to help with any part of a legal separation, from start to finish. Legal separations go through the same process as a Dissolution of Marriage, except that when the judgment is entered, the marital status is still intact. There can still be child custody, visitation, support, and property issues in a legal separation. No matter if the legal separation is amicable or contentious, we are able to help!

Paternity cases, similar to divorces, can be handled from start to finish. We have options for those that have settled all custody issues, and we have packages for people in a tough custody fight as well.

Custody and visitation are often times the most litigated issue in a divorce or paternity action. RESOLUTIONS can help you to file any paperwork to change custody orders, or have them set in the first place. It is important to remember that having your paperwork in order from the beginning helps to get a favorable order from the start. It is much harder to change a custody order "after the fact" so get everything done correct from the start! We can also help parents who are in agreement sign and file either a new or modified custody order.

Along with custody of the children, support orders are most always very contentious. RESOLUTIONS will help you to understand the different orders that can be made, how support is determined, and make sure that your paperwork puts you in the best position to achieve your desired goal, whatever that is. RESOLUTIONS always makes sure the client knows what to expect as it relates to support by providing Dissomaster printouts for all child support cases.

Filing a Request for Order to either establish custody or support orders is a very daunting task. RESOLUTIONS will help make sure your paperwork is in order so that from the very beginning you have the best opportunity to achieve your custody and support goals. We also specialize in quick turnaround RFO's (Request for Orders) for emergency hearings. Emergency hearings are for cases where a child is in imminent danger or there is a high risk of the child being kidnapped. We will walk you through this scary process and keep your paperwork on point as the Court has a reduced time to review the case due to the emergency nature of the hearing.  RESOLUTIONS has a 95%+ success rate on getting Ex Parte (Emergency) Request for Orders granted!

After the judge makes orders in your case from a Request for Order hearing, you have to take those orders and turn them into an official court document. You accomplish this by completing an order after hearing. RESOLUTIONS can complete this for you in two days, as we understand the importance of having an official, enforceable court document in your hand. We file the Order After Hearing for you as well with the Court!

Once your case has either been settled or has gone to trial, to complete either your paternity, dissolution, or legal separation, a judgment must be entered. This is a step that a lot of people often forget, or think is not important. This is arguably the MOST important part of your case, because it "finalizes" it. In a divorce case, you are not officially divorced until the judgment has been entered, regardless of whether or not the judge has granted the divorce at a hearing. We can help complete your judgment, gather all necessary signatures, and file with the Court.

RESOLUTIONS can help you to annul your marriage. There are very specific criteria that must be met in order to qualify for an annulment, and it is imperative that your paperwork is done correctly from the start. RESOLUTIONS can help!
