Why You Need a Divorce Attorney in Scottsdale Or Other Arizona Locations
In Arizona, a divorce is called "dissolution of marriage" and court papers use that term instead of "divorce." The standard Arizona divorce is no-fault, which means that neither spouse is required to prove blame or responsibility in ending the marriage. You can find a divorce attorney in Scottsdale, Phoenix and other major Arizona cities. You may also want to research mediators if you have an amicable relationship with your soon-to-be ex-spouse. Make sure you get some kind of legal help because your divorce paperwork must be thorough and include certain items that legal counsel will know. If your paperwork is incomplete, your divorce could take months or even years.
Arizona considers marriages to fall into one of two categories: a standard marriage and a covenant marriage. A covenant marriage is presumably a higher standard of marriage, which Arizona added to law in 1998. A covenant marriage differs from a standard marriage in the steps necessary to get married and the reasons why a divorce may be granted by the court. A covenant marriage can only be legally dissipated on the grounds of adultery, conviction of a felony which lands a person in prison or death, over one year of abandonment, living separately for over two years without reconciliation or living separately for over one year after legal separation, domestic violence, abuse of drugs or alcohol or if both spouses agree to dissolution.
You or your spouse must be a resident of Arizona for a minimum of 90 days before you can file for a divorce. You must file a "Petition for Dissolution of Marriage" with the Superior Court in which you live. According to Arizona law, a divorce cannot be granted until at least 60 days after the court papers are delivered to the other spouse.
You can get a consent decree without going to court if you and your spouse can agree to all terms in your divorce, including child support, property issues, debt issues, alimony and custody. The decree will end the marriage after the decree is signed by a judge.
The court can also divide property and debts for you, if you go to court instead of using a mediator. Arizona is a community property state, meaning any property bought during the marriage is treated as being owned by both spouses. The courts attempt to distribute community property fairly, but that doesn't always mean equally. You should consult a divorce attorney in Scottsdale or in the city closest to you to make sure you get property that should be yours.
Property owned before the marriage can remain separate property of the spouse that obtained the property before marriage. Items one spouse receives as a gift or inheritance during the marriage is also considered separate.
You and your spouse can get a written agreement, known as a separation agreement, that specifies how matters are handled if the marriage ends. This is a contract list and describes both parties' decisions about ownership of real estate, how to divide property, financial support and custody issues, if applicable. The court must accept the separation agreement unless it is unfair to one spouse. Consult a divorce attorney in Scottsdale or in the city nearest you for more information about a separation agreement. Gathering information about the date of purchase and the price of purchase, as well as who you purchased the property from can be a big help before you consult a divorce attorney.
The Arizona court system will make child custody decisions in the best interest of the child if the parents cannot reach an agreement. The court can order sole custody or joint custody. No preference is given on the basis of the parent's sex.
The Arizona court system can be confusing, which is why it's best to get a divorce lawyer or mediator to help you understand your rights and to make sure you have everything you need.

Florida Church attempt to stop divorce?

I say we make this a NATIONAL goal! How about in the month of March we all make a pledge to slow down in other aspects of our lives and reconnect (not just physically but that is also important) with our partners. What are your thoughts on this idea?
I think the idea here is not simply about sex. I think what he is trying to get at is that couples need to reconnect. Sex on a regular basis is one way to reopen communication and rebuild the love some couples have lost.

Will deployment stop divorce and custody proceedings?
I am getting ready to file for divorce and I'm sure there will be a custody battle. He doesnt know Im filing yet, although he knows I have been unhappy for a long time. He has been looking into deploying early. If he does this, does it mean that the divorce and custody battle will be put on hold until he gets back?
I am worried that once I file he will deploy just to hold onto me longer.
I want to move on with my life, please help!
spazinski- this is his second divorce, trust me I dont want a battle, and would you want your child to endure continuing abuse, both physically and mentally? This isnt just a "I dont want you anymore" divorce.

Americans: Before we do something like add prayer 2 public schools could we clean up our act 1st+re-evaluate?
I see people wanting prayer put into public schools because "Oh we are so screwed up...only by having a teacher force the children to line up and chant a prayer to God will we be saved"
Well how about, under the reasoning that God helps those who help themselves instead of just asking for free handouts like beggers, we try to fix our own problems first.
We stop cheating on our spouses
We stop divorcing and re-marrying time after time after time
We stop shipping kids back and forth between broken homes
We stop leaving kids home alone so we can work more hours to afford fancy and shiny new TVs and gadgets
We stop trying to map out a child's life until death at age 3
We stop shoving drugs down their throats + make them do their homework
We stop crusading about violence in TV+movies and actually parent and stop kids from watching the stuff.
We actually teach morals+life in the home
How about we work on our own vices which are a much bigger influence and see what happens 1st?
mark101112> No we removed parenting and resulted with school shootings
The Canadian Atheist> I think people should pull out their brains, dust them off, and use them to act like humans. I don't want laws passed or so..I want free people to take responsibility for themselves and their actions and the consequences of those actions.
Godless> Well 1) I am not advocating prayer in school 2) I am saying people should think instead of feel when getting married and not get a divorce instead of an honest try to work out 3) It is quite rare that parents work so much just for bare essentials like food+shelter+heat+clothes, there are always luxeries involved that people assume are priorities 4) I obviously never meant to say that the drugs are 100% not needed but knowing many kids, knowing many parents, knowing the system and knowing that I have friends "diagnosed" needing meds that are just fine that at least 50% of the meds given out are not needed..it should be an exception case..not a general rule.
