Family Law

Fayetteville Family Law Attorney

The Hatley Law Firm in Fayetteville, North Carolina provides compassionate service from a qualified attorney and legal staff. For clients dealing with a family law matter, we can help you with the complexities of the law and the emotional issues that accompany these family law matters.

In addition to our practice of divorce, child custody, and spousal support/marital property division, we assist clients with the following family law services:

Paternity

Simply put, a determination of paternity can help a mother secure support for her child and a father to have the right to visit his son or daughter. At the Hatley Law Firm, we refer you to an appropriate lab for paternity testing. We also ensure that motions are filed to provide enough time for proper testing.

Adoptions

The practice of adoptions can be very rewarding in helping a childless couple bring a baby home. For stepparents, it is an opportunity to solidify a long time bond. Grandparents have the rare chance to help raise their grandchildren. There are detailed legal steps to follow and we will help you throughout the entire process.

Pre-Nuptial and Post-Nuptial Agreements

Pre-nuptial agreements are a pragmatic and proactive way of protecting the assets of yourself and your soon-to-be spouse. While the prospect of divorce does not usually enter the mind of newlyweds, all outcomes must be accounted for with a legally binding agreement.
