Immigration Divorce And Custody Cases Attorney

Get Help With Your Immigration Divorce And Custody Case

Many divorced are complicated, but when one spouse is an immigrant who has been deported, things can get even more complicated. A family law attorney can help you with your case and will work in the best interest of you and your children. Let Clayton Dickinson help you with your complicated immigration divorce and child custody case.

Can I Still Get Divorced If My Spouse Has Been Deported?

Family law courts in the United States can grant a divorce that terminates the marriage when only one person is present in the divorce proceedings. This also applies to custody cases. When the other spouse received news of the divorce or custody filings, he will still have the right to challenge the divorce or custody situation. If the spouse has been deported, the United States will allow a divorce and decide custody arrangements based on abandonment or irreconcilable differences.

What If My Spouse Wants Custody Of The Children?

Custody situations involving a deported spouse are often more complicated than others, but are still handled the same way. The judge will determine custody based on the best interest of the children. He will consider many factors, including the reason for the deportation and whether or not the children were born in the United States or are citizens. Because these cases can be difficult, it is a good idea to have an attorney on your side.
