Here at Jones, Childers, Donalson & Webb, PLLC, we handle a variety of legal matters, and this includes family law. There are many different misconceptions surrounding this type of law, and we would like to clear them up to increase your confidence and comfort with our services. Here are three of the most common misconceptions about family law explained.
- It’s only for divorce and custody cases: One of the most common misconceptions about family law is that it’s only useful for divorce and child custody cases. This is not true. While we can offer our legal services for both child custody and divorce, we can also assist you with cases involving guardianship, domestic violence, and prenuptial agreements.
- A lawyer isn’t necessary for family law cases: This is another common misconception. Even when the divorce is amicable or it seems as though legal services are unnecessary, it’s always best to get the assistance of a lawyer to ensure the fairness of any agreements and to make them legally binding.
- It only pertains to negative family matters: While it may seem that family law is only for negative family matters, such as divorce, domestic violence, and child custody battles, family law can also be applied in more positive family situations. Common cases include adoptions or guardianship agreements.
