Divorce

Santa Fe, New Mexico, Divorce Lawyer

The divorce process can be difficult and emotionally charged. We at the Elion Law Firm can help you understand your rights and minimize the additional stress that the legal aspects of a divorce can cause. When meeting with experienced attorney Gary D. Elion, you can discuss your situation and learn more about the options you have for seeking a resolution to the divorce and some of the resulting issues, including:

  • Child Custody and Visitation: We can assist clients in dealing with establishing child custody and visitation orders. Our firm also handles the modification and enforcement of these orders, if necessary, to suit the best interests of the child and needs of the parents as circumstances change.
  • Child Support: By entering the proper numbers, including amount of income, into a statute-set formula, the appropriate amount of child support can be calculated. We assist clients in seeing that the correct numbers are entered, which in turn ensure that the amount of child support that is ordered is enough to support the life and welfare of the child.
  • Property Division: Our firm provides advice and guidance to clients throughout the course of dividing community property and debt, while we work to protect your separate property. We provide full-service lawyering, including the drafting of QDRO's and the division of PERA pension benefits (for state employees).
  • Alimony (spousal support): Though alimony is not always awarded, we represent clients in seeking alimony or attempting to block an alimony order from being entered.

International Divorce

Dealing with a divorce between two U.S. citizens can be difficult enough. Divorce between a U.S. citizen and a citizen of another country can be even more complicated due to specific state and federal laws that may apply. Our firm confidently handles international divorces, along with the issues that may stem from the international divorce, including the division of marital property in numerous countries.

In addition to handling the above family law and divorce issues, we can assist clients in seeking out the preservation of grandparents' rights in custody and visitation situations.

For more information regarding divorce, international divorce and other family law issues, contact a lawyer at the Elion Law Firm today. A free consultation is offered so you can discuss your case and concerns with an attorney at our office. Flexible appointment times are also available upon request.
