Services
KJT-Law knows from experience the impact of Family Law on individuals, families, veterans, active duty military members and the community is long-lasting and life changing, making Family law one of the most complex areas of law within the Judicial System.
We are skilled at effectively combining numerous methods (legal investigation, forensic accounting, legal counseling, negotiations and effective trial presentation) to obtain your best result, whether your best results are found in a court order or an agreement.
After your divorce, spousal support is alimony.
KJT-Law knows how to help you obtain or fight an award of alimony.
N.C. law requires the Court in orders for spousal support, to deem the recipient as the dependent spouse, the payor as the supporting spouse and determine the payor has the reasonable ability to pay the support to the dependent spouse.
The Court will consider the accustomed standard of living of the parties during the marriage, their incomes, and reasonable expenses.
Marital misconduct, particularly in the form of illicit sexual misconduct, will be considered by the Court and your ability to prove its existence or not will matter in the alimony award you receive or pay.
KJT-law loves to help clients become parents through adoptions!
We have completed all types of adoptions, including, but not limited to: step-parent adoptions, agency adoptions, adult adoptions, independent adoptions and relative adoptions.
In some of the adoptions, we first had to terminate parental rights of one/or both biological parents before we could complete the adoption.
Adoptions and termination of parental rights involve challenges to Constitutional Rights, which present detail oriented challenges and require experience and connections to properly obtain the decree of adoption sought.
Forming a business requires informed decisions.
KJT-Law has the knowledge of North Carolina law and experience to: (1) facilitate you in choosing the best corporate structure for your needs, whether it be a for profit or non-profit business, sole proprietorship, partnership, limited liability company or corporation; (2) appropriately organize or incorporate your business; (3) write your operating agreement or bylaws; and (4) set up your corporate book for success in the future.
Once formed, your business will negotiate and transact with other entities.
NOTE: If you are getting married or divorced, you have at least one thing in your favor: name changes can be an automatic part of the process.
In general, the court proceedings for an adult are relatively simple.
So long as the requirements are satisfied, the judge will grant the name change.
You should tell the judge the reason for wanting to change your name, as some reasons may be more important than others and will require special attention.
One parent or guardian will submit the petition with a reason for the change and the other parent or guardian will have to give his/her consent.
