We work hard to help clients keep some of the emotion out of the proceedings, while fighting to ensure their financial well-being and their current and future relationship with their children. As a veteran Montgomery child custody attorney, Richard Perry knows that the outcome of child custody cases can impact your relationship with your children for the rest of your life.

The outcome of child support and alimony cases is another critical aspect of divorce in Montgomery that can impact the rest of your life. Unfortunately, too many never recover their standard of living after divorce. Even with planning, parting spouses fail to fully appreciate the challenges of building separate lives with twice the expenses and half the income. An experienced Montgomery divorce attorney can help avoid some of the common pitfalls. Not getting an adequate settlement or enough child support or alimony can put you at a financial disadvantage before you even begin rebuilding your life. Each has tax implications that may make one more advantageous. Child support also has significantly more enforcement and more bureaucracy – meaning you may be more likely to be paid on the receiving end and more likely to face legal problems if you are forced to pay unreasonably and/or can’t meet your obligations.
As a father’s rights attorney in Montgomery, Richard Perry also understands the challenges unique to fathers in today’s legal system. While Alabama divorce law recognizes the benefits of joint custody and the importance of a father’s relationship with his children, it remains all too easy for fathers to be relegated to the traditional visitation arrangement of every other weekend and several weeks in the summer. Unreasonable alimony or child support payments can also make it impossible to move forward and begin rebuilding your life and may even lead to additional legal problems.
