    Marital vs. Separate Property: Why Title Matters in Divorce

    If you inherit money or property while you’re married, is it automatically yours in a divorce? What about assets you owned before the marriage? Jarrod Oxendine and Christine Palmer break down the difference between marital and separate property and explain how separate assets can become more complicated when they are mixed with marital property. They discuss inheritances, joint bank accounts, retirement accounts, real estate, and what can happen when separate funds are commingled or property is retitled during the marriage. They also explain why documentation matters, especially when trying to establish what you owned before the marriage, and how marital contributions to an otherwise separate asset can create a marital interest. The key takeaway: title matters. Understanding how your assets are held and keeping separate property separate can make a significant difference if a marriage ends in divorce. Are you contemplating divorce? We can help. Are you looking for a second opinion?

    Dating During Divorce: Can You vs. Should You?

    Can you date while your divorce is pending? Maybe. But the more important question may be whether you should. Jarrod Oxendine and Christine Palmer discuss how dating during divorce can complicate an already emotional process. From increasing tension with your spouse and making negotiations more difficult to creating questions about finances, parenting time, and judgment, a new relationship can have consequences that extend beyond your personal life.  They also cover some of the biggest mistakes to avoid if you do decide to date, including flaunting a new relationship, spending marital funds on a new partner, and introducing your children to someone before the divorce is final.  Jarrod and Christine also explain why children may need time to adjust even after the divorce is over, and why introducing a new partner slowly and thoughtfully can help protect both your children and your new relationship.  Are you contemplating divorce?

    Parenting Plans That Work for Real Life

    A parenting plan may look good on paper, but will it still work years from now? Jarrod Oxendine and Christine Palmer discuss some of the most common mistakes parents make when creating parenting plans, especially when it comes to holidays, birthdays, school breaks, summer vacations, and extracurricular activities. They explain why trying to divide every special day may sound fair in the moment but can create unnecessary exchanges, limit travel, and make celebrations more stressful for children.  The conversation also explores why parents should think beyond their current circumstances when planning for summer and school breaks. A schedule that works today may feel restrictive several years from now as children get older, finances change, or new opportunities arise.  Above all, Jarrod and Christine emphasize flexibility. Co-parenting requires recognizing that schedules change, activities may fall during either parent's time, and sometimes a simple swap can make life easier for everyone, especially the children.  Are you contemplating divorce?

    Child Support Is a Court Order: What Both Parents Need to Know

    Child support doesn't always end when circumstances change, and an informal agreement between parents doesn't necessarily change what the court order requires. Jarrod Oxendine and Christine Palmer discuss what both the person paying and the person receiving child support need to understand once an order is in place. They explain why child support cannot simply be reduced when a child graduates, why voluntarily paying extra generally doesn't create a credit toward future obligations, and why changes need to be addressed through the proper modification process.  They cover common mistakes that can create problems later, including attempting to prepay child support, substituting expenses or purchases for the required payment, withholding parenting time because support hasn't been paid, and failing to keep clear payment records.  For parents whose financial circumstances have significantly changed, Jarrod and Christine explain when a modification may be appropriate, why acting quickly matters, and what to do if you can no longer afford your existing obligation.  Are you contemplating divorce?

    When Your Ex Ignores the Court Order: Understanding Contempt

    Your divorce may be final, but that doesn't always mean the legal issues are over. What happens when your former spouse refuses to follow the court order? Jarrod Oxendine and Christine Palmer break down contempt of court and enforcement after divorce, including what actually qualifies as contempt and why intent matters. They cover common issues involving parenting time, child support, alimony, retirement accounts, and other court-ordered obligations, while explaining when a violation may warrant legal action and when it may not. The conversation explores what to do when violations become a pattern, why retaliating by breaking the order yourself can hurt your case, and the remedies a court may have available to enforce an existing order.

    The Long Game: Life After the Divorce Is Final

    Finalizing your divorce isn't the end of the journey. For many families, it's the beginning of a new chapter that requires communication, structure, and ongoing cooperation. In part 6 of Happily Ever After Divorce, Georgia family law attorney Jarrod Oxendine explains what happens after the divorce decree is signed and why successful co-parenting requires a mindset shift. From parenting plans and custody exchanges to modifications and enforcement, Jarrod discusses the legal tools available when circumstances change or court orders aren't being followed. He also explores the emotional challenges that often arise after divorce, including lingering resentment, new relationships, and learning to view your former spouse as a co-parent rather than a partner. By focusing on clear boundaries and a well-crafted parenting plan, parents can create greater stability for themselves and their children long after the legal case has ended. Divorce may close one chapter, but building a healthy future for your family is a long-term commitment. With the right strategy and legal protections in place, you can move forward with confidence and peace of mind. Are you contemplating divorce? We can help. Are you looking for a second opinion?

    How Divorce Affects Children at Every Age

    One of the biggest concerns parents have during a divorce is how it will affect their children. The reality is that every child experiences divorce differently depending on their age, stage of development, and the way their parents handle the process. In this episode, Jarrod Oxendine and Christine Palmer discuss how toddlers, school-age children, teenagers, and even college-aged children may respond to divorce. They explain why maintaining routines, protecting children from parental conflict, encouraging healthy relationships with both parents, and communicating in age-appropriate ways can make a significant difference during the transition. The conversation also explores common mistakes parents make, including placing children in the middle of adult conflicts, speaking negatively about the other parent, and unintentionally creating loyalty conflicts that can have lasting emotional effects. No matter your child's age, there are practical steps you can take to help them feel secure, supported, and loved throughout the divorce process. Are you contemplating divorce? We can help. Are you looking for a second opinion? We can help with that, too. Learn more about our practice: https://bit.ly/3ZMBWGa Ready to talk to an attorney about your unique situation?
