What is the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act? In most cases, interstate child custody matters in the United States fall under the law of the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA).

Currently, 49 states, including Arizona, operate under the Act. In Arizona we now use the term “Legal Decision-Making” instead of “Custody” but the two terms are commonly used interchangeably by parents. The Act ensur ..read more

11M ago
What Are Child Support Arrears? Arizona family law requires that co-parents provide ‘reasonable support’ to their children. This requirement of support does not go away in cases of divorce or separation. Family law courts may enforce child support agreements to force parents to abide by the law. Sometimes, for whatever reason, the non-custodial parent may find it challenging to keep up with the child support payments. Often, this is not a purposeful decision but rather the result of a significant change in their life. Common reasons someone might fall behind in child support payments include l ..read more

1y ago
What is a Legal Separation? Though similar to a divorce in many ways, there are several key differences between a divorce and a legal separation. The main difference is that, with a legal separation, the spouses remain married. A legal separation grants the spouses time to consider their differences and decide where to take their lives. They may ultimately decide to reconcile, or the legal separation could be converted into a divorce with relative ease. Like a divorce, a legal separation will separate your finances (and, depending on your circumstances, also lead to physical separation). The s ..read more

Arizona Family Law Attorneys Blog
by Arizona Family Law Attorneys
1y ago
Does Adultery Affect Divorce Proceedings? Adultery is defined as sexual intercourse between a married individual and someone other than their spouse. In Arizona, the act is actually still considered a felony and may be punishable by up to five years in state prison. However, perhaps not surprisingly, the felony charges are rarely enforced. (If the sexual affair occurs during a period of spousal separation, then it is only considered a misdemeanor offense.) When an affair happens, it’s natural for the loyal spouse to feel deep betrayal. The two may enter marriage counseling in an attempt to sav ..read more
