Divorce and Adultery in Virginia: I want to depose his girlfriend!
As far as procedure is concerned, adultery cases are some of the most difficult fault based divorce cases you can come across in Virginia.

My marriage isn’t working out. What should I do?
There’s not a lot of things that feel scarier than divorce. It’s a big change, and it impacts all areas of your life.

Your attorney said WHAT?!
Divorce and custody cases are high stress situations. It’s not very often that I get an email or a call from a client who isn’t feeling pretty frantic.

Common Law Marriage in Virginia
Okay, so, the headline of this article, “Common Law Marriage in Virginia” is a little misleading, and I’ll tell you why. There is NO common law marriage in Virginia. Common law marriage is a thing, at least in some states, but it isn’t in Virginia. The theory there, which I assume you already know, is…

Veteran’s Day Specials for Divorcing Military Wives
It’s not easy to be a military spouse. Between deployments and workups and irregular hours (not to mention the fact that you could literally be sent almost anyplace in the world – and sometimes the service member gets unaccompanied orders – and have no say in the matter), it’s one thing after another.

His, Hers, Ours: Classifying Property in Divorce
When you’re happily married, everything is “ours”. But as soon as one of you starts talking about a potential separation, it’s funny how many things suddenly become “mine” – especially from a man’s perspective.

Veteran’s Day Specials 2017
Here in Hampton Roads, the military presence is everywhere. From bumper stickers proclaiming “I LOVE JET NOISE” to various deployments and homecomings, we see military all day, every day, everywhere.

Just had a baby — now divorce?
If ever there was a bad time to be thinking that your marriage is on the rocks, it’s right after you’ve delivered a baby. Add to your level of stress (you know, related to delivery, recovery, post partum, the realities of raising a baby) with the fact that you may or may not be able…
