Receiving Child Support Payment

In what ways can a custodial parent receive child support payments?

Child support is a payment made by a parent to help cover the costs of raising a child. In many cases, the parent who does not have primary custody of the child is responsible for making these payments. There are several different ways that a custodial parent can receive child support payments.

Direct Payment 

One of the most common ways to receive child support is through immediate payment from the non-custodial parent. This can be done through various methods, including checks, money orders, or electronic transfers. In some cases, the non-custodial parent may be required to make these payments through a government agency or court-ordered payment plan.

Income Withholding 

In some cases, the non-custodial parent may have their income withheld to pay child support. This means that a portion of their wages or other income will be automatically deducted and used to make child support payments. This can be done by the non-custodial parent's employer or through a government agency.

Liens and Levies 

If the non-custodial parent is not making their child support payments as ordered by the court, the custodial parent may be able to pursue legal action to collect the unpaid amount. This can include placing a lien on the non-custodial parent's property or levying their bank accounts.

Government Assistance 

In some cases, the custodial parent may be eligible to receive government assistance to help cover the costs of raising a child. This can include programs such as Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) or the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF). These programs can provide financial assistance to help cover the child's costs of food, housing, and other necessities.

Private Child Support Collection Services 

Sometimes the custodial parent may work with a personal child support collection service. These services can help to locate the non-custodial parent, establish paternity if necessary, and pursue legal action to collect unpaid child support. These services often charge a fee for their services but can be a useful option for custodial parents who are having trouble receiving the child support payments they are owed.

Tax Evasion Penalties

By now, you probably know that having unpaid taxes is a serious problem. The fees and penalties can really add up, significantly increasing the amount you owe the government. The good news is it’s usally not a criminal offense to have back taxes. But sometime

However, when you attempt to avoid the assessment or payment taxes owed by using illegal means, you may face criminal charges for Tax evasion. Common examples of tax evasion include: not declaring all your income, deliberately overstating expenses or deductions, or attempting to avoid detection by failing to file tax returns when you have taxable income.

Law on Tax Evasion Penalties

There’s a long list of potential penalties and consequences for tax evasion. Paying your taxes is a better deal than having any of the following happen to you.

Pay a Penalty

If you act with the purpose of avoiding or defeating any tax owed to the IRS, you could be fined up to $250,000. Even if you’re not formally charged with tax evasion, you will be assessed fines if you file your return more than 60 days after the due date. The failure-to-file penalty is 10 times more than the failure-to-pay penalty. So the IRS recommends that even if you can’t pay in full, you should file your tax return and pay as much as you can.

Pay Interest

The IRS is required by law to charge interest when you don’t pay on time. The interest accrues from the due date of your return (regardless of extensions) until you pay the amount you owe in full, including all interest and any penalty charges. Interest rates are variable and may change quarterly.

Tax Lien on Your Property

A federal tax lien is a legal claim to your property. The tax lien arises automatically when you don’t pay in full the taxes you owe within 10 days after the IRS makes a tax assessment. It will then send a notice of taxes owed and demand for payment. The IRS may also file a Notice of Federal Tax Lien in the public records, which notifies your creditors that the IRS has a claim against all your property, including property acquired by you after the filing of the Notice of Federal Tax Lien. Once a lien arises, the IRS generally can’t release the lien until the tax, penalty, interest, and recording fees are paid in full or until the IRS can’t legally collect the tax.

Lose Your Property

A levy is a legal seizure that takes your property (such as your house or car) or your rights to property (such as your income, bank account, retirement account or Social Security payments) to satisfy your tax debt. When property is seized (“levied”), it will be sold to help pay your tax debt.

Damage to Your Credit

The filing of a Notice of Federal Tax Lien may appear on your credit report and may harm your credit rating.

Lose Your Passport

The Department of State will not issue or renew your passport if you’ve been certified by the IRS as having a seriously delinquent tax debt, and may revoke a passport previously issued to such individual.

Face Criminal Charges

Tax evasion is a felony criminal offense. If you are charged with tax evasion, the United States Attorney’s Office will prosecute you in federal court.

Go to Prison

If you’re found guilty of tax evasion, you can go to federal prison for up to five years.

Forfeit Your Social Security Benefits

If you owe the IRS, 15 percent of your Social Security benefits can be taken each month until the debt is paid in full. The government uses the Federal Payment Levy Program to garnish your payments.

Gary Coleman

Gary Wayne Coleman (February 8, 1968 – May 28, 2010) was an American actor and comedian, best known for his role as Arnold Jackson in Diff'rent Strokes (1978–1986) and for his small stature as an adult. He was described in the 1980s as "one of television's most promising stars". After a successful childhood acting career, Coleman struggled financially later in life. In 1989, he successfully sued his parents and business adviser over misappropriation of his assets, only to declare bankruptcy a decade later.

On May 28, 2010, Coleman died of epidural hematoma at age 42.

Early life

Coleman was born Gary Wayne Coleman in Zion, Illinois, outside Chicago, on February 8, 1968. He was adopted by W. G. Coleman, a fork-lift operator, and Edmonia Sue, a nurse practitioner. He suffered from focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, an autoimmune kidney disease. Because of his chronic illness, combined with the corticosteroids and other medications used to treat it, his growth was limited to 4 ft 8 in (1.42 m), and his face retained a childlike appearance well into adulthood. He underwent two unsuccessful kidney transplants in 1973 and 1984, and required daily dialysis.

Career

In 1974, Coleman's career began when he appeared in a commercial for Harris Bank. His line (after the announcer said, "You should have a Harris banker.") was "You should have a Hubert doll." "Hubert" was a stuffed lion representing the Harris bank logo. The same year, he appeared in an episode of Medical Center.

While best known for his role on Diff'rent Strokes, Coleman had appeared earlier on television, on The Jeffersons as Raymond, George Jefferson's nephew, and on Good Times as Penny's friend Gary. He also appeared in a 1977 pilot for a revival of The Little Rascals as Stymie. VH1 rated Coleman first on a list of "100 Greatest Child Stars" on television.

Diff'rent Strokes

Coleman was cast in the role of Arnold Jackson in Diff'rent Strokes, portraying one of two black brothers from Harlem adopted by a wealthy white widower in Manhattan. The series was broadcast from 1978 to 1986.

He became the most popular fixture of the series, enhanced by his character's catchphrase "What'chu talkin' 'bout, Willis?". At the height of his fame on Diff'rent Strokes, he earned $100,000 per episode. A Biography Channel documentary estimated he was left with a quarter of the original amount after paying his parents, advisers, lawyers, and taxes. He later successfully sued his parents and his former advisers for misappropriation of his finances and was awarded $1.3 million. According to Todd Bridges' autobiography Killing Willis, Coleman was made to work long hours on the set of Diff'rent Strokes, despite his age and health problems and this contributed to his being unhappy and separating himself from the cast.

Later character appearances

Coleman became a popular figure, starring in a number of feature films and television films, including On the Right Track and The Kid with the Broken Halo. The latter eventually served as the basis for The Gary Coleman Show in 1982. He also made video game appearances in The Curse of Monkey Island (1997) and Postal 2 (2003). In 2005, Coleman appeared in John Cena's music video for his single "Bad, Bad Man" (from the album You Can't See Me), Coleman played himself as a villain taking Michael Jackson and Madonna hostage. The video was a spoof of 80s culture, focusing on The A-Team.

Candidacy for Governor of California

In the 2003 California recall election, Coleman was a candidate for governor. This campaign was sponsored by the free newsweekly East Bay Express as a satirical comment on the recall. After Arnold Schwarzenegger declared his candidacy, Coleman announced that he would vote for Schwarzenegger. He placed 8th in a field of 135 candidates, receiving 14,242 votes.

Avenue Q

Coleman is parodied in Avenue Q, which won the 2004 Tony Award for Best Musical. A character presented as Coleman works as the superintendent of the apartment complex where the musical takes place. In the song "It Sucks to Be Me", he laments his fate. On Broadway, the role was originally portrayed by Natalie Venetia Belcon.

The show's creators Jeff Marx and Robert Lopez have said that the Coleman character is a personification of one of Avenue Q's central themes: that as children we are told we are "special", but upon entering adulthood we discover that life is not nearly as easy as we have been led to believe. They added that their original intent was for Coleman himself to play the Gary Coleman role, and he expressed interest in accepting it, but never showed up for a meeting scheduled to discuss it.

In 2005, Coleman announced his intention to sue the producers of Avenue Q for their depiction of him, although the lawsuit never materialized. At the 2007 New York Comic Con, Coleman said, "I wish there was a lawyer on Earth that would sue them for me."

Personal life

In a 1993 television interview, Coleman said he had twice attempted suicide by overdosing on pills. Around the same time he was living in Denver, Colorado, where he hosted a Sunday night show on local radio station KHIH titled Gary Coleman's Colorado High, in which he played light jazz and new-age music. He gave part of his salary to the Colorado Kidney Foundation.

In 2005, Coleman moved from Los Angeles to Santaquin, a small town about 50 miles south of Salt Lake City, Utah, where he lived for the remainder of his life. In early 2007 he met Shannon Price, 22, on the set of the film Church Ball, where she was working as an extra. Price and Coleman married several months later. On May 1 and 2, 2008, they made a well-publicized appearance on the show Divorce Court to air their differences in an attempt to save their marriage. Nevertheless, they divorced in August 2008, citing irreconcilable differences and Coleman was granted an ex parte restraining order against Price to prevent her from living in his home when he was hospitalized after their divorce. According to a court petition later filed by Price, she and Coleman continued to live together in a common law marriage until his death. However, a judge ultimately ruled against Price after hearing evidence that she carried on affairs with other men during the time she claimed to be with Coleman, and moreover "physically abused Coleman in public, led him around by the hand like a child [and] displayed no physical affection toward him in front of anyone."

Financial struggles

In August 1999, Coleman filed for bankruptcy protection. Multiple people, he said, were responsible for his insolvency, "... from me, to accountants, to my adoptive parents, to agents, to lawyers, and back to me again."

Ongoing medical expenses contributed significantly to Coleman's chronic financial problems, and compelled him, at times, to resort to unusual fundraising activities. In 2008, for example, he auctioned an autographed pair of his trousers on eBay to help pay his medical bills. The auction attracted considerable attention, including fake bids up to $400,000. The trousers were eventually bought for $500 by comedian Jimmy Kimmel, who hung them from the rafters of his television studio.

Legal troubles

In 1989, Coleman sued his adoptive parents and former business advisor for $3.8 million over misappropriation of his trust fund, and won a $1,280,000 judgment in 1993.

In 1998, Coleman was charged with assault while he was working as a security guard. Tracy Fields, a Los Angeles bus driver and fan of Coleman's work on Diff'rent Strokes, approached him and requested his autograph while he was shopping for a bulletproof vest in a California mall. Coleman refused to give her an autograph, an argument ensued, and Fields reportedly mocked Coleman's lackluster career as an actor. Coleman punched Fields in the face several times in front of witnesses. He was arrested and later testified in court that she threatened him and he defended himself. "She wouldn't leave me alone. I was getting scared, and she was getting ugly," he said. Coleman pleaded no contest to one count of assault, received a suspended jail sentence, and was ordered to pay Fields' $1,665 hospital bill, as well as take anger management classes.

In 2007, Coleman was cited for misdemeanor disorderly conduct in Provo, Utah after a "heated discussion" in public with his wife.

In 2008, Coleman was involved in a car accident after an altercation at a Payson, Utah bowling alley which began when Colt Rushton, age 24, photographed Coleman without his permission; the two men argued, according to witnesses. In the parking lot, Coleman allegedly backed his truck into Rushton, striking his knee and pulling him under the vehicle, before hitting another car. Rushton was treated at a local hospital for minor injuries and released. Coleman later pleaded no contest to charges of disorderly conduct and reckless driving, and was fined $100. In 2010, he settled a civil suit related to the incident for an undisclosed amount.

In 2009, Coleman and Price were involved in a domestic dispute, after which his ex-wife was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence, and both parties were cited for disorderly conduct.

In January 2010, months before his death, he was arrested on an outstanding domestic assault warrant in Santaquin, booked into the Utah County Jail, and released the following day.

Trains and model railroading

Coleman was an avid railfan, model railroader, and supporter of Amtrak. He became interested in trains sometime before the age of 5 during his frequent train trips to Chicago in support of his burgeoning acting career. Fans often saw him at stores specializing in model trains in areas in which he lived, and he worked part-time at Denver-area, Tucson-area, and California hobby stores to be around his hobby. Coleman built and maintained miniature railroads in his homes in several states. One of his train layouts appears in the September 1990 issue of Railroad Model Craftsman. Coleman is photographed on the front cover, with his "Rio Grande" layout. He preferred to model in HO scale, but modeled in other scales as well. One such model railroad was over 800 square-feet in size. Currently, at least one of Coleman's model railroads is being preserved in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

Death and memorial

Very few details of Coleman's medical history have been made public. His short stature (4 feet, 8 inches or 1.42 meters) stemmed from congenital autoimmune kidney disease and its treatment. He underwent at least two kidney transplants early in his life and required frequent dialysis, which he preferred not to discuss. In 2009, Coleman underwent heart surgery, details of which were never made public, but he was known to have developed pneumonia postoperatively. In January 2010, Coleman was hospitalized after a seizure in Los Angeles, and in February he suffered another seizure on the set of The Insider television program.

On May 26, 2010, Coleman was admitted to Utah Valley Regional Medical Center in Provo, Utah, in critical condition after falling down the stairs at his home in Santaquin and hitting his head, possibly after another seizure, and suffering an epidural hematoma. According to a hospital spokesman, Coleman was conscious and lucid the next morning, but his condition subsequently worsened. By mid-afternoon on May 27, he was unconscious and on life support. He died at 12:05 pm MDT (18:05 UTC) on May 28 at the age of 42.

The casts of the Off Broadway production of Avenue Q in New York City and the Avenue Q National Tour in Dallas dedicated their May 28 performances to his memory, and the actors playing the part of Coleman paid tribute to him from the stage at the performances' conclusions. (The Coleman character remained in the show after modifications were made to relevant dialogue.)

The weekend after Coleman's death, a scheduled funeral was postponed and later canceled due to a dispute regarding the disposition of his estate and remains between Coleman's adoptive parents, Price, and former business associate Anna Gray. Coleman's former manager Dion Mial was involved initially, but withdrew after Coleman's 1999 will, which named Mial as executor and directed that his wake be "...conducted by those with no financial ties to me and can look each other in the eyes and say they really cared personally for Gary Colemen [sic]", turned out to be superseded by a later one replacing Mial with Gray, and directing "...that there be no funeral service, wake, or other ceremony memorializing my passing."

Questions were also raised as to whether Price, who approved discontinuing Coleman's life support, was legally authorized to do so. The controversy was exacerbated by a photograph published on the front page of the tabloid newspaper The Globe depicting Price posed next to a comatose, intubated Coleman, under the headline, "It Was Murder!"

The hospital later issued a statement confirming that Coleman had completed an advance health care directive granting Price permission to make medical decisions on his behalf. An investigation by Santaquin police was closed on October 5, 2010, after the medical examiner ruled Coleman's death "accidental", and no evidence of wrongdoing could be demonstrated.

In June, Coleman's remains were cremated, in accordance with his wishes, after a Utah judge agreed that there was no dispute regarding that issue; but disposition of the ashes was delayed pending a judicial decision on permanent control of the estate. While Coleman's final will, signed in 2005, named Gray as executor and awarded his entire estate to her, Coleman and Price married in 2007. Although they divorced in 2008, Price claimed in a court petition that she remained Coleman's common-law wife, sharing bank accounts and presenting themselves publicly as husband and wife, until his death; an assertion that, if validated by the court, would make her the lawful heir.

In May 2012 Judge James Taylor ruled that while Price had indeed lived in Coleman's home after their marriage ended, their relationship at the time of his death failed to meet Utah's standard for a common-law marriage. The disposition of his ashes remains unreported. Price said that were she granted disposition, she would scatter the ashes at the Golden Spike National Historic Site in Utah as a tribute to Coleman's lifelong love of trains.

Attorneys Sugar House Salt Lake City

Sugar House is a neighborhood in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States, and is one of the city’s oldest neighborhoods. The name is officially two words, although it is often colloquially written as “Sugarhouse.” Sugar House is the site of Westminster College. Sugar House is home to two shopping centers that collectively feature various retailers such as clothing retailer Nordstrom Rack, bookseller Barnes & Noble, clothing retailer Old Navy, Whole Foods Market, Bed Bath & Beyond, Petco, Big 5 Sporting Goods, several fast food and family restaurants, and a luxury seating Cinemark cinema. A strip mall is located on the corner of 2100 South and 700 East. The corner of 2100 South and 1300 East features three low-rise office buildings. Between the shopping center and 2100 South is a small park named Hidden Hollow Natural Area, created in 2001 as a development project to beautify the city in preparation for the 2002 Winter Olympics.

It was rehabilitated based on the initiative of school children. Sugar House Park is a park located between I-80, 2100 South, 1300 East, and 1700 East. The park was host to a large celebration with fireworks each July 4, but it was discontinued in 2018 due to cost, environmental concerns, and staffing shortages. Sugar House is located within the Salt Lake City grid system. According to the Community Council, it runs from 500 East to Foothill Drive and north to south from 1300 South to the city limits about 3000 South. According to Salt Lake City’s master plan, it runs from 500 East to Parleys Way and 2000 East and from 1700 South to the city limits about 3000 South. Many local businesses as well as private residences, although not strictly located within the bounds of Sugar House, use the name because of the area’s name recognition. The business and commercial center of the neighborhood is located at 1100 East 2100 South which is also the northern end terminus of Highland Drive, where it turns into 1100 East. In the past, the Sugar House community council had mostly shunned big-box stores, and a cluster of curbside businesses existed along the intersection of 2100 South and Highland Drive/1100 East, including independent clothing and shoe stores, music shops, artist studios, public art galleries, two coffee shops, a head shop called Wizards & Dreams, and an adult interest store called Blue Boutique. However, recent redevelopment of the Granite Block has forced many of these stores to either relocate or close. Zoning changes have created concerns that the new development will be less friendly to local businesses.

Family Law

Facing a family law issue can be more stressful than other legal issues because it involves your relationships with your spouse and children. Working with an experienced family lawyer can make it less stressful for all parties involved. Family Lawyers handles the following types of family law cases: • Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements; • Spousal support; • DCFS actions; • Child support; • Child custody; • Divorces; • Adoptions; • Annulments; • Domestic partnerships; • Domestic litigation; and • Paternity suits. Don’t face any of the aforementioned family law issues without the help of a skilled attorney in your area.

How to Find a Lawyer

Although an attorney isn’t always necessary when dealing with legal situations, if you’ve decided you want to hire a lawyer, you may now be wondering how you go about finding a good one. What follows is some advice to help you find an attorney, as well as questions you should ask when narrowing down your choices. Before you begin your search to find a lawyer, however, do remember that there are different types of lawyers, from estate planning to criminal defense, so focus on attorneys who practice the kind of law for which you need legal advice.

• Ask around among your family, friends, co-workers, and acquaintances to see if they know of any attorneys they could recommend. Personal references can be some of the most reliable references you will find. • Ask a lawyer you trust, even if they don’t practice in the area of law in which you need legal help; they may be able to recommend colleagues who can handle your case. • Run an attorney search at databases which provide information such as practice areas, location, disciplinary records, and lawyer reviews. • Consult your local or state bar association’s attorney directory, which is a list of lawyers in your area. • Consider affordable options which provide solid legal advice from attorneys who don’t charge expensive hourly fees. Questions to Ask Before Hiring a Lawyer Now that you have some attorney options, it’s time to choose. To get you started, here’s a list of questions to ask the attorney: • Do you provide a free consultation? If not, how much does the initial interview cost? • How long have you been in practice? • How much experience do you have in cases like mine, and more importantly, what were the outcomes of those cases? • Have you ever been the subject of a disciplinary action? • What are your fees? What services are included? How do you expect to be paid (lump sum, installments, etc.)? Are your fees or fee structure negotiable? • What is your caseload currently like? Do you have the time to commit to my case?

One way to get a feel for an attorney’s practice is to be observant when you go for your first consultation. Take special note of the way his or her office is run, whether there is sufficient support staff, and how professionally you are treated. Pay attention to factors such as how long it took for the attorney to return your initial contact. It is also within your rights as a potential client to ask an attorney for references from past or present clients. Finally, but perhaps the most important thing for you to consider when hiring a lawyer: your instinct. You need to feel extremely comfortable with the person who will represent you and your interests, especially as you will likely be sharing private details about your life and possibly putting your future in his or her hands. If something just feels off, you should move on and find an attorney with whom you do have a better rapport.

Real Estate Lawyers

Real estate lawyers help clients with legal issues related to residential and commercial real estate, tenants and neighbors, commercial leasing, and private property ownership. Lawyers assist with transfer of real estate property, including purchase and sale. They help clients to deal with the legal aspect of rental property and defend the rights of owners, landlords, renters, and tenants. Real estate lawyers specialize in land use, zoning, property development, and foreclosure.

Legal Advice

Lawyers offer legal advice on property management, zoning violations, restrictions and covenants on real estate, property taxes, and value estimates. They specialize in real estate disputes and deed problems and help resolve disputes over encroachment, trespass, injuries, and boundaries. Lawyers help clients to make estate transactions and deal with different problems. These include tenants in residence, proof of title, immovable structures, and illegal additions or units. Immovable structures include minerals, bushes, trees, and buildings. Lawyers review and prepare real estate documents, file liens, and draft deeds. They ensure that no liens, easements, and covenants are registered against the real estate property. Attorneys create and register documents on behalf of clients, check for adjustments, modify the terms of contracts and agreements, and negotiate the terms of sales and purchase agreements. To this, they work with investors, brokers, developers, and other attorneys. Responsibilities Real estate lawyers help clients with title issues and environmental and insurance issues. They review and prepare appraisals, inspections, leases, and purchase agreements. They draft documents such as financial and rental agreements, leases, and deeds for higher priced purchases or conveyance transactions. Lawyers also offer legal advice and review transactions. This is called due diligence and involves a review of sales price history, building code compliance of the real estate property, lease terms, etc. Lawyers also represent their clients in court. They participate in trials and hearings, file appeals, and draft documents and legal pleadings. Attorneys also bargain and negotiate on behalf of clients and help them to reach settlement agreements. Some attorneys represent financial institutions while others represent debtors in cases of trust deed and mortgage foreclosure. The court is not involved in trust deed foreclosures, and the financial establishment is the beneficiary. When the trustor or borrower is unable to keep making payments, the trustee can be authorized to sell the real estate. A Notice of Default is issued. In cases of foreclosure, the lawyer files a lawsuit, offers legal advice, and represents the parties in court. When representing debtors, the task of the attorney is to stop the foreclosure procedure and reach an agreement. The lawyer works with the financial institution to modify the terms of mortgage loan and assists in notice of default matters. Real estate lawyers protect the interests of sellers, buyers, and other parties to minimize the risk of financial loss. They check loan documents and contracts for errors and omissions. Some attorneys use the services of title agencies. Apart from reviewing purchase agreements, lawyers check for code violations and look at mortgage documents, taxes, and lien searches. Attorneys specialize in residential and commercial real estate transactions and ensure that their clients’ interests are protected. To this, they work with insurance agents, surveyors, inspectors, real estate and title agents, and banks and other financial institutions. In residential transactions, lawyers check whether there are charges or liens against the property. They make sure that taxes and maintenance are paid by the seller and attend the closing. Finally, real estate lawyers help clients with security deposits and review the closing statement, promissory note, bills of sale, and deed.

A strip mall is located on the corner of 2100 South and 700 East. The corner of 2100 South and 1300 East features three low-rise office buildings.

How to Find a Lawyer

Although an attorney isn’t always necessary when dealing with legal situations, if you’ve decided you want to hire a lawyer, you may now be wondering how you go about finding a good one. What follows is some advice to help you find an attorney, as well as questions you should ask when narrowing down your choices. Before you begin your search to find a lawyer, however, do remember that there are different types of lawyers, from estate planning to criminal defense, so focus on attorneys who practice the kind of law for which you need legal advice.

• Ask around among your family, friends, co-workers, and acquaintances to see if they know of any attorneys they could recommend. Personal references can be some of the most reliable references you will find. • Ask a lawyer you trust, even if they don’t practice in the area of law in which you need legal help; they may be able to recommend colleagues who can handle your case. • Run an attorney search at databases which provide information such as practice areas, location, disciplinary records, and lawyer reviews. • Consult your local or state bar association’s attorney directory, which is a list of lawyers in your area. • Consider affordable options which provide solid legal advice from attorneys who don’t charge expensive hourly fees. Questions to Ask Before Hiring a Lawyer Now that you have some attorney options, it’s time to choose. To get you started, here’s a list of questions to ask the attorney: • Do you provide a free consultation? If not, how much does the initial interview cost? • How long have you been in practice? • How much experience do you have in cases like mine, and more importantly, what were the outcomes of those cases? • Have you ever been the subject of a disciplinary action? • What are your fees? What services are included? How do you expect to be paid (lump sum, installments, etc.)? Are your fees or fee structure negotiable? • What is your caseload currently like? Do you have the time to commit to my case?

One way to get a feel for an attorney’s practice is to be observant when you go for your first consultation. Take special note of the way his or her office is run, whether there is sufficient support staff, and how professionally you are treated. Pay attention to factors such as how long it took for the attorney to return your initial contact. It is also within your rights as a potential client to ask an attorney for references from past or present clients. Finally, but perhaps the most important thing for you to consider when hiring a lawyer: your instinct. You need to feel extremely comfortable with the person who will represent you and your interests, especially as you will likely be sharing private details about your life and possibly putting your future in his or her hands. If something just feels off, you should move on and find an attorney with whom you do have a better rapport.

Attorneys Sugar House Salt Lake City

Sugar House is a neighborhood in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States, and is one of the city’s oldest neighborhoods. The name is officially two words, although it is often colloquially written as “Sugarhouse.” Sugar House is the site of Westminster College. Sugar House is home to two shopping centers that collectively feature various retailers such as clothing retailer Nordstrom Rack, bookseller Barnes & Noble, clothing retailer Old Navy, Whole Foods Market, Bed Bath & Beyond, Petco, Big 5 Sporting Goods, several fast food and family restaurants, and a luxury seating Cinemark cinema. A strip mall is located on the corner of 2100 South and 700 East. The corner of 2100 South and 1300 East features three low-rise office buildings. Between the shopping center and 2100 South is a small park named Hidden Hollow Natural Area, created in 2001 as a development project to beautify the city in preparation for the 2002 Winter Olympics.

It was rehabilitated based on the initiative of school children. Sugar House Park is a park located between I-80, 2100 South, 1300 East, and 1700 East. The park was host to a large celebration with fireworks each July 4, but it was discontinued in 2018 due to cost, environmental concerns, and staffing shortages. Sugar House is located within the Salt Lake City grid system. According to the Community Council, it runs from 500 East to Foothill Drive and north to south from 1300 South to the city limits about 3000 South. According to Salt Lake City’s master plan, it runs from 500 East to Parleys Way and 2000 East and from 1700 South to the city limits about 3000 South. Many local businesses as well as private residences, although not strictly located within the bounds of Sugar House, use the name because of the area’s name recognition. The business and commercial center of the neighborhood is located at 1100 East 2100 South which is also the northern end terminus of Highland Drive, where it turns into 1100 East. In the past, the Sugar House community council had mostly shunned big-box stores, and a cluster of curbside businesses existed along the intersection of 2100 South and Highland Drive/1100 East, including independent clothing and shoe stores, music shops, artist studios, public art galleries, two coffee shops, a head shop called Wizards & Dreams, and an adult interest store called Blue Boutique. However, recent redevelopment of the Granite Block has forced many of these stores to either relocate or close. Zoning changes have created concerns that the new development will be less friendly to local businesses.

Family Law

Facing a family law issue can be more stressful than other legal issues because it involves your relationships with your spouse and children. Working with an experienced family lawyer can make it less stressful for all parties involved. Family Lawyers handles the following types of family law cases: • Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements; • Spousal support; • DCFS actions; • Child support; • Child custody; • Divorces; • Adoptions; • Annulments; • Domestic partnerships; • Domestic litigation; and • Paternity suits. Don’t face any of the aforementioned family law issues without the help of a skilled attorney in your area.

How to Find a Lawyer

Although an attorney isn’t always necessary when dealing with legal situations, if you’ve decided you want to hire a lawyer, you may now be wondering how you go about finding a good one. What follows is some advice to help you find an attorney, as well as questions you should ask when narrowing down your choices. Before you begin your search to find a lawyer, however, do remember that there are different types of lawyers, from estate planning to criminal defense, so focus on attorneys who practice the kind of law for which you need legal advice.

• Ask around among your family, friends, co-workers, and acquaintances to see if they know of any attorneys they could recommend. Personal references can be some of the most reliable references you will find. • Ask a lawyer you trust, even if they don’t practice in the area of law in which you need legal help; they may be able to recommend colleagues who can handle your case. • Run an attorney search at databases which provide information such as practice areas, location, disciplinary records, and lawyer reviews. • Consult your local or state bar association’s attorney directory, which is a list of lawyers in your area. • Consider affordable options which provide solid legal advice from attorneys who don’t charge expensive hourly fees. Questions to Ask Before Hiring a Lawyer Now that you have some attorney options, it’s time to choose. To get you started, here’s a list of questions to ask the attorney: • Do you provide a free consultation? If not, how much does the initial interview cost? • How long have you been in practice? • How much experience do you have in cases like mine, and more importantly, what were the outcomes of those cases? • Have you ever been the subject of a disciplinary action? • What are your fees? What services are included? How do you expect to be paid (lump sum, installments, etc.)? Are your fees or fee structure negotiable? • What is your caseload currently like? Do you have the time to commit to my case?

One way to get a feel for an attorney’s practice is to be observant when you go for your first consultation. Take special note of the way his or her office is run, whether there is sufficient support staff, and how professionally you are treated. Pay attention to factors such as how long it took for the attorney to return your initial contact. It is also within your rights as a potential client to ask an attorney for references from past or present clients. Finally, but perhaps the most important thing for you to consider when hiring a lawyer: your instinct. You need to feel extremely comfortable with the person who will represent you and your interests, especially as you will likely be sharing private details about your life and possibly putting your future in his or her hands. If something just feels off, you should move on and find an attorney with whom you do have a better rapport.

Real Estate Lawyers

Real estate lawyers help clients with legal issues related to residential and commercial real estate, tenants and neighbors, commercial leasing, and private property ownership. Lawyers assist with transfer of real estate property, including purchase and sale. They help clients to deal with the legal aspect of rental property and defend the rights of owners, landlords, renters, and tenants. Real estate lawyers specialize in land use, zoning, property development, and foreclosure.

Legal Advice

Lawyers offer legal advice on property management, zoning violations, restrictions and covenants on real estate, property taxes, and value estimates. They specialize in real estate disputes and deed problems and help resolve disputes over encroachment, trespass, injuries, and boundaries. Lawyers help clients to make estate transactions and deal with different problems. These include tenants in residence, proof of title, immovable structures, and illegal additions or units. Immovable structures include minerals, bushes, trees, and buildings. Lawyers review and prepare real estate documents, file liens, and draft deeds. They ensure that no liens, easements, and covenants are registered against the real estate property. Attorneys create and register documents on behalf of clients, check for adjustments, modify the terms of contracts and agreements, and negotiate the terms of sales and purchase agreements. To this, they work with investors, brokers, developers, and other attorneys. Responsibilities Real estate lawyers help clients with title issues and environmental and insurance issues. They review and prepare appraisals, inspections, leases, and purchase agreements. They draft documents such as financial and rental agreements, leases, and deeds for higher priced purchases or conveyance transactions. Lawyers also offer legal advice and review transactions. This is called due diligence and involves a review of sales price history, building code compliance of the real estate property, lease terms, etc. Lawyers also represent their clients in court. They participate in trials and hearings, file appeals, and draft documents and legal pleadings. Attorneys also bargain and negotiate on behalf of clients and help them to reach settlement agreements. Some attorneys represent financial institutions while others represent debtors in cases of trust deed and mortgage foreclosure. The court is not involved in trust deed foreclosures, and the financial establishment is the beneficiary. When the trustor or borrower is unable to keep making payments, the trustee can be authorized to sell the real estate. A Notice of Default is issued. In cases of foreclosure, the lawyer files a lawsuit, offers legal advice, and represents the parties in court. When representing debtors, the task of the attorney is to stop the foreclosure procedure and reach an agreement. The lawyer works with the financial institution to modify the terms of mortgage loan and assists in notice of default matters. Real estate lawyers protect the interests of sellers, buyers, and other parties to minimize the risk of financial loss. They check loan documents and contracts for errors and omissions. Some attorneys use the services of title agencies. Apart from reviewing purchase agreements, lawyers check for code violations and look at mortgage documents, taxes, and lien searches. Attorneys specialize in residential and commercial real estate transactions and ensure that their clients’ interests are protected.

Finally, real estate lawyers help clients with security deposits and review the closing statement, promissory note, bills of sale, and deed.

Before you begin your search to find a lawyer, however, do remember that there are different types of lawyers, from estate planning to criminal defense, so focus on attorneys who practice the kind of law for which you need legal advice.

• Ask around among your family, friends, co-workers, and acquaintances to see if they know of any attorneys they could recommend. Personal references can be some of the most reliable references you will find. • Ask a lawyer you trust, even if they don’t practice in the area of law in which you need legal help; they may be able to recommend colleagues who can handle your case. • Run an attorney search at databases which provide information such as practice areas, location, disciplinary records, and lawyer reviews. • Consult your local or state bar association’s attorney directory, which is a list of lawyers in your area. • Consider affordable options which provide solid legal advice from attorneys who don’t charge expensive hourly fees. Questions to Ask Before Hiring a Lawyer Now that you have some attorney options, it’s time to choose. To get you started, here’s a list of questions to ask the attorney: • Do you provide a free consultation? If not, how much does the initial interview cost? • How long have you been in practice? • How much experience do you have in cases like mine, and more importantly, what were the outcomes of those cases? • Have you ever been the subject of a disciplinary action? • What are your fees? What services are included? How do you expect to be paid (lump sum, installments, etc.)? Are your fees or fee structure negotiable? • What is your caseload currently like? Do you have the time to commit to my case?

One way to get a feel for an attorney’s practice is to be observant when you go for your first consultation. Take special note of the way his or her office is run, whether there is sufficient support staff, and how professionally you are treated. Pay attention to factors such as how long it took for the attorney to return your initial contact. It is also within your rights as a potential client to ask an attorney for references from past or present clients. Finally, but perhaps the most important thing for you to consider when hiring a lawyer: your instinct. You need to feel extremely comfortable with the person who will represent you and your interests, especially as you will likely be sharing private details about your life and possibly putting your future in his or her hands. If something just feels off, you should move on and find an attorney with whom you do have a better rapport.

Activists give jailed moms a Mother’s Day gift: bail

PHOENIX — Paz Lopez was set to spend Mother’s Day behind bars. The 42-year-old mother of six had been locked up in a Phoenix jail for the past month on forgery and other charges. She couldn’t post her $2,050 bail.

But on Thursday night she walked out and into a car waiting to give her a ride home, thanks to a drive to bail out moms so they can spend Mother’s Day with their kids. In a tearful video made immediately after her release, Lopez said it was a privilege that she would now get to see her children. She welled up when speaking about the coming birth of her first grandchild.

“There’s just no greater feeling than being a mother,” Lopez said. “I’m grateful for both of you to help me be able to spend the day with them and be able to see my grandchild be born.”

Lopez had her bail covered by Living United for Change in Arizona, or LUCHA, a social and racial justice group. The organization said they were inspired to do this for a second year by an initiative known as “Black Mamas Bail Out,” which is posting bail for dozens of mothers of color for the third straight year.

The effort is organized by the National Bail Out collective, a coalition of various grassroots groups, attorneys and activists nationwide. The campaign hopes to bail out more than 100 women in 35 cities in time for Mother’s Day. The objective is not just to reunite families but to push for change in the cash bail system.

Critics contend the nation’s courts are unfairly punishing poor defendants by setting high bail for low-level crimes that causes them to languish in jail for months, separating them from their jobs and families. In some cases, they remain locked up until their case is dismissed or they take a guilty plea just so they can get out of jail, albeit with a criminal record. There has been a national push to reform bail by advocates who say incarceration should depend on a suspect’s risk to public safety, not the ability to pay.

Mary Hooks, co-director of Atlanta-based Southerners On New Ground, came up with the idea in 2016. She joined with Law For Black Lives, a female-led network of lawyers and legal advocates, to bring together a collective of organizations. It’s been difficult at times to get sympathy, she said, because people often think someone sitting in jail pre-trial must have done something wrong.

“We’re in a political time right now where ‘Barbecue Becky’ or anyone else can call the police on someone and you can get arrested instantly for barbecuing,” Hooks said, referring to the white woman who called police on two black men using a grill in an Oakland, California, park. The men were not arrested. “This notion ‘you’re in jail because you’ve done something horrible,’ we have to remind ourselves we have a Constitution that says ‘innocent until proven guilty.’”

Jaymeshia Jordan, of Oakland, said she would have faced another 10 months in jail if she hadn’t been rescued by a bailout two days before last Mother’s Day by Oakland advocacy group Essie Justice Group. Jordan, who declined to say what she was arrested for, faced a $450,000 bail. She had no way of paying even a fraction of that on her own or with a bail bondsman.

“I would have just sat in custody till my case was over,” Jordan said.

She was in jail for three months. In that time, her 5-year-old son lost his first tooth and learned how to tie his shoes.

Organizations choose who to assist based on referrals from attorneys and other activists. They don’t take into account whether a woman is accused of a violent or non-violent crime. According to the collective’s organizers, the mothers they help show up at court at “high rates” but the majority of the money they’ve handed out for bail hasn’t been returned.

LUCHA, the Phoenix group, plans to fund as many bail releases as possible with the $9,000 they have raised. Organizers Nicole Hale said they will offer mothers additional support including court date reminders and rides.

“We don’t just hand someone a piece of paper and say ‘good luck.’ They don’t have to go through the system alone,” Hale said.

Several studies suggest that bail amounts are set sometimes as much as three times higher for people of color, said Shima Baughman, a criminal law professor at the University of Utah College of Law. Even a $200 bail for a misdemeanor crime can be beyond what’s in a person’s bank account.

According to a 2018 report from the non-partisan Prison Policy Initiative, roughly 2.9 million women are jailed in the U.S. every year. An estimated 80% are either pregnant or have children.

Women of color are even more heavily impacted, especially if they are working mothers who likely earn lower salaries, according to Baughman. A few days in jail can lead to the loss of a job or child custody.

“When women are the ones that bear most of the burdens in the family, their kids are the ones that are going to suffer,” Baughman said. “Because in many families, women are responsible for working outside the home and also for child care, they can face dire circumstances with their children when they are forced to serve even a couple of nights in jail.”

Jeff Clayton, executive director of the American Bail Coalition, said some of these Mother’s Day bailouts are publicity stunts that don’t tackle the larger issue of affordability of bail. It’s unrealistic for organizers to call for a cash-free bail system, he added.

“Not to say these people aren’t doing good work,” Clayton said. “But it’s questionable whether saying they’re an abolitionist and banning all money bail is really the best solution.”

In the past few years, several states have made moves to overhaul their own system including New Jersey, Alaska and New Mexico. There are more than 200 bail reform bills nationwide, according to Baughman. In California, voters next year will decide whether to overturn a law eliminating bail altogether for suspects awaiting trial. Instead, counties would set up their own risk-assessment programs through probation departments.

However, computer algorithms or risk-assessment programs can be biased as well, Baughman said.

Paying for bail has become a growing strategy for local communities to divert the prison pipeline. Last month, rapper T.I. and VH1’s “Love and Hip Hop” personality Scrapp Deleon joined with an Atlanta church to help post bail for nonviolent offenders for Easter. They exceeded their goal and raised $120,000. Sixteen men and seven women got to go home.

Family Lawyer Park City Utah

Utah family law is complex. It covers many aspects of a person’s life – marriage, divorce, children, adoption, paternity, emancipation and much more. If you need assistance with any aspect of family law, an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer is your best friend.

Single Persons

Family law is also applicable to single persons. Just because you are not married does not mean that you do not have any rights under Utah family law. If you believe your rights under Utah family law are being violated because you are single, speak to an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer.

Adoption

Utah has a statute defining who can adopt and the procedures involved, and the statute states that a single person may adopt. Nonetheless, it is often not as easy for a single person to adopt as it is for a married couple. Social service and child welfare agencies frequently determine that it is in a child’s best interests to have a two-parent family and may limit a single person to adopting a child unlikely to be adopted by anyone else. If you are a single person seeking to adopt a child, you should speak to an experienced family lawyer.

Unmarried Cohabitants and Adoption

If you are in a cohabitation relationship and want to adopt a child in Utah with your partner, speak to an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer. Utah law does not allow unmarried cohabitants to adopt as a couple. You may be eligible to adopt as a single parent.

Gay Parent Adoption

Single gay men and lesbian women as well as same sex couples can legally adopt a child in Utah. An experienced Park City Utah family lawyer can help gay and lesbian parent with adoption. Utah has legalized gay marriages and there are many same sex couples in Park City Utah. These couples have the same rights as other heterosexual couples. A same sex couple or a single gay man or lesbian woman cannot be discriminated against when they apply to adopt a child. A person’s sexuality.

Prenuptial Agreements

An experienced Park City Utah family lawyer can assist you prepare a prenuptial agreement. A prenuptial agreement is an agreement that two persons enter into before they get married. This agreement lists out what will happen to the assets of each person after they get married and how the assets will be distributed in case of a divorce. The agreement does not become effective till the two get married.

Divorce

Under Utah law, you can apply for an uncontested divorce. An uncontested divorce is one where the spouses have agreed on all issues of the divorce including alimony, child custody, child support and visitation rights. Utah has minimum residency requirements for divorce. Just because you got married in Utah, you cannot automatically apply for a divorce in Utah. Either you or your spouse must be a resident of Utah for at least three months. If you have minor children from the marriage, this period is six months.

Utah also has a mandatory waiting period for a divorce to be completed. The waiting period is ninety days. You can request the court to waive this mandatory waiting period of 90 days under extraordinary circumstances. An experienced Park City Utah family lawyer can review your case and let you know if you can request this waiver. This waiver is not automatic and the court will review the circumstances before it waives this mandatory thrity day waiting period.

Once this waiting period is over, the court will grant the divorce. In case of an uncontested divorce, the spouses need not attend the court for a hearing. All that they need to do is file the paperwork correctly. The judge reviews the paperwork and pass the order declaring the spouses as divorced and the marriage as legally ended. However if the spouses are unable to reach an agreement on any of the issues, they will have to appear in court and the court will after hearing them and reviewing the evidence decide on the unsettled issues.

Child Custody

Nonetheless, courts sometimes terminate a parent’s custody primarily for reasons of abuse, abandonment, or neglect. Utah has statutory provisions setting forth grounds and procedures for terminating parental rights. Custody generally refers to the responsibilities of maintaining and nurturing your child, and involves the right to make decisions regarding your child. Usually a parent has custody of a child from birth until the child is no longer a minor.

When parents are divorced or separated, the child or children live with the custodial parent. The other parent has visitation rights — that is, rights to see the child for specific periods of time, which can be set by agreement between the parents or court-ordered. Today, joint custody is becoming more common, whereby both parents have equal legal rights and responsibilities, for example, making decisions regarding a child’s education or religious training. It does not necessarily mean that both parents have physical custody, which is the right and responsibility to maintain the principal home and to provide routine care for the child. One parent alone may have physical custody, or both parents may alternate. Custody decisions are made either by agreement or by courts after trial. Trial courts generally have broad discretion in custody matters, and appellate courts will not overturn a lower court’s decision unless it finds an abuse of that discretion, or a decision that is “clearly erroneous.” Once a court is involved in custody questions, it retains jurisdiction over the issue; that is, a custody decision can be modified or changed so long as a child remains a minor.

Standards used by judges use to decide custody cases

The standard generally applied in state statutes is the “best interests of the child.” Utah law lists criteria to be considered in awarding custody, such as —

1. the age and sex of the child;

2. the relationship of the child with the parent or parents;

3. the child’s interaction with the environment of the home, school, and larger community;

4. the mental and physical health of all the parties;

5. the child’s wishes

The problem with the best interests test is that although it sounds reasonable, in application it is often a vague standard that leaves room for judicial expression of bias; for example, judges who think a parent’s church attendance is important to a child’s development may use that as a factor in awarding custody; and judges who disapprove of a “bohemian” life-style may award custody to the parent with the more traditional job and home life. If you are seeking custody of your child, seek the assistance of an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer.

Sex-neutral standard for awarding custody

It’s called the primary caretaker standard, and it is a gender-neutral replacement of the tender years doctrine and a refinement of the best interests of the child standard. The primary caretaker standard is a recognition of the fact that in most families one of the parents is likely to assume responsibility for daily plans, preparations, and provision of necessities. If you believe you are the primary parent and you should be given custody of the child, use the services of an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer.

Under Utah law, a gay or a lesbian parent cannot be denied custody on the grounds of sexuality.

Joint Custody

Courts in Utah can grant joint custody of the child. An order of joint custody is most likely to be carried out when both parties agree to it. In fact, when the parents, although separated, are cooperating in the upbringing of their children, an order is not really necessary. The potential for problems is clear when parents have not wanted to share custody and were so ordered.

Emancipation

Utah has an emancipation law. Emancipation is the legal process by which a minor is treated as an adult for all legal purposes. To be eligible for emancipation under Utah law, the minor must meet certain requirements. An experienced Park City Utah family lawyer can help a minor get emancipated under Utah law. The minor must be at least 16 years old. When deciding an emancipation petition the court will consider the living situation of the minor – whether the minor has the means to provide for himself. The minor must show that he is capable of managing his affairs.

Cohabitation

While Utah does not recognize common law marriages, it does not outlaw cohabitation. You can have a cohabitation relationship with your partner. If you want your cohabitation relationship to be recognized as a marriage, you must petition the court. Seek the assistance of an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer. If you do not petition the court, you will lose certain rights. Spouses have a right of inheritance. Cohabitating partners do not have this automatic right. A cohabitating partner can leave his estate to his partner by making a will. But if he dies intestate – without a will – the estate will be distributed according to the intestate laws of Utah and the cohabiting partner will not get anything. If you are in a cohabitation relationship in Utah, an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer can help you devise legal methods by which you can ensure that your partner gets a rightful share in your estate after your death.

Annulment of Marriage

Some marriages can be annulled. There is a difference between annulment and divorce. Speak to an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer to know if your marriage can be annulled. Often it is better to have a marriage annulled. The main difference is that once a marriage is annulled, for all legal and practical purposes, it’s as if the couple were never married. Whereas in the case a divorce, the couple were married but the marriage has legally ended.

Generally speaking, an annulment is a court decree of order that declares a marriage to be null and void. To annul a marriage in Utah, you must show that your marriage is invalid from the very beginning. Although an annulment differs from a divorce, if there are children involved, the court will have to decide on the issue of child custody, visitation and child support payments. A spouse can seek alimony even in an annulment case. Annulment does not result in waiver of alimony and child support. Utah law treats child support as belonging to the child and not the parent. So, the parents cannot decide on waiving child support.

Fraud is often the most common grounds for seeking an annulment. The spouse seeking the annulment must show that his or her consent for the marriage was obtained by fraud or the other spouse has hidden some information or lied about something that has direct impact on the relationship. If the marriage results in an incestuous relationship between the spouses, the marriage can be annulled. A wife can seek annulment of a marriage on the grounds that the husband is impotent. However, this claim must be backed by medical evidence.

Paternity

The issue of paternity comes up in a divorce proceeding where the spouses are fighting on the issue of child support. Often the husband will claim that he is not the father of the child to avoid paying child support. In such cases, a paternity lawsuit can help determine the biological father of the child.

An experienced Park City Utah family lawyer can also assist you in paternity lawsuits. Whether you are fighting to have your paternity proved or you are defending yourself against a paternity charge, you should always seek the help of an attorney. Paternity laws are complex. If you are declared the father of a child, you will have to provide child support till that child becomes an adult.

You may sometimes need to prove paternity to be able to get custody of your child. Paternity battle can be emotionally straining and can impact your ability to fight the legal battle alone. Hire the services of an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer.

To annul a marriage in Utah, you must show that your marriage is invalid from the very beginning. Although an annulment differs from a divorce, if there are children involved, the court will have to decide on the issue of child custody, visitation and child support payments. A spouse can seek alimony even in an annulment case. Annulment does not result in waiver of alimony and child support. Utah law treats child support as belonging to the child and not the parent. So, the parents cannot decide on waiving child support.

Fraud is often the most common grounds for seeking an annulment. The spouse seeking the annulment must show that his or her consent for the marriage was obtained by fraud or the other spouse has hidden some information or lied about something that has direct impact on the relationship. If the marriage results in an incestuous relationship between the spouses, the marriage can be annulled. A wife can seek annulment of a marriage on the grounds that the husband is impotent. However, this claim must be backed by medical evidence.

Paternity

Utah has legalized gay marriages and there are many same sex couples in Park City Utah. These couples have the same rights as other heterosexual couples. A same sex couple or a single gay man or lesbian woman cannot be discriminated against when they apply to adopt a child. A person’s sexuality.

Prenuptial Agreements

An experienced Park City Utah family lawyer can assist you prepare a prenuptial agreement. A prenuptial agreement is an agreement that two persons enter into before they get married. This agreement lists out what will happen to the assets of each person after they get married and how the assets will be distributed in case of a divorce. The agreement does not become effective till the two get married.

Divorce

Under Utah law, you can apply for an uncontested divorce. An uncontested divorce is one where the spouses have agreed on all issues of the divorce including alimony, child custody, child support and visitation rights. Utah has minimum residency requirements for divorce. Just because you got married in Utah, you cannot automatically apply for a divorce in Utah. Either you or your spouse must be a resident of Utah for at least three months. If you have minor children from the marriage, this period is six months.

Utah also has a mandatory waiting period for a divorce to be completed. The waiting period is ninety days. You can request the court to waive this mandatory waiting period of 90 days under extraordinary circumstances. An experienced Park City Utah family lawyer can review your case and let you know if you can request this waiver. This waiver is not automatic and the court will review the circumstances before it waives this mandatory thrity day waiting period.

Once this waiting period is over, the court will grant the divorce. In case of an uncontested divorce, the spouses need not attend the court for a hearing.

However if the spouses are unable to reach an agreement on any of the issues, they will have to appear in court and the court will after hearing them and reviewing the evidence decide on the unsettled issues.

Child Custody

Nonetheless, courts sometimes terminate a parent’s custody primarily for reasons of abuse, abandonment, or neglect. Utah has statutory provisions setting forth grounds and procedures for terminating parental rights. Custody generally refers to the responsibilities of maintaining and nurturing your child, and involves the right to make decisions regarding your child. Usually a parent has custody of a child from birth until the child is no longer a minor.

When parents are divorced or separated, the child or children live with the custodial parent. The other parent has visitation rights — that is, rights to see the child for specific periods of time, which can be set by agreement between the parents or court-ordered. Today, joint custody is becoming more common, whereby both parents have equal legal rights and responsibilities, for example, making decisions regarding a child’s education or religious training. It does not necessarily mean that both parents have physical custody, which is the right and responsibility to maintain the principal home and to provide routine care for the child. One parent alone may have physical custody, or both parents may alternate. Custody decisions are made either by agreement or by courts after trial. Trial courts generally have broad discretion in custody matters, and appellate courts will not overturn a lower court’s decision unless it finds an abuse of that discretion, or a decision that is “clearly erroneous.” Once a court is involved in custody questions, it retains jurisdiction over the issue; that is, a custody decision can be modified or changed so long as a child remains a minor.

Standards used by judges use to decide custody cases

The standard generally applied in state statutes is the “best interests of the child.” Utah law lists criteria to be considered in awarding custody, such as —

1. the age and sex of the child;

2. the relationship of the child with the parent or parents;

3. the child’s interaction with the environment of the home, school, and larger community;

4. the mental and physical health of all the parties;

5. the child’s wishes

The problem with the best interests test is that although it sounds reasonable, in application it is often a vague standard that leaves room for judicial expression of bias; for example, judges who think a parent’s church attendance is important to a child’s development may use that as a factor in awarding custody; and judges who disapprove of a “bohemian” life-style may award custody to the parent with the more traditional job and home life. If you are seeking custody of your child, seek the assistance of an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer.

Sex-neutral standard for awarding custody

It’s called the primary caretaker standard, and it is a gender-neutral replacement of the tender years doctrine and a refinement of the best interests of the child standard. The primary caretaker standard is a recognition of the fact that in most families one of the parents is likely to assume responsibility for daily plans, preparations, and provision of necessities. If you believe you are the primary parent and you should be given custody of the child, use the services of an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer.

Sex-neutral standard for awarding custody

It’s called the primary caretaker standard, and it is a gender-neutral replacement of the tender years doctrine and a refinement of the best interests of the child standard. The primary caretaker standard is a recognition of the fact that in most families one of the parents is likely to assume responsibility for daily plans, preparations, and provision of necessities. If you believe you are the primary parent and you should be given custody of the child, use the services of an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer.

Under Utah law, a gay or a lesbian parent cannot be denied custody on the grounds of sexuality.

Joint Custody

Courts in Utah can grant joint custody of the child. An order of joint custody is most likely to be carried out when both parties agree to it. In fact, when the parents, although separated, are cooperating in the upbringing of their children, an order is not really necessary. The potential for problems is clear when parents have not wanted to share custody and were so ordered.

Emancipation

Utah has an emancipation law. Emancipation is the legal process by which a minor is treated as an adult for all legal purposes. To be eligible for emancipation under Utah law, the minor must meet certain requirements. An experienced Park City Utah family lawyer can help a minor get emancipated under Utah law. The minor must be at least 16 years old. When deciding an emancipation petition the court will consider the living situation of the minor – whether the minor has the means to provide for himself. The minor must show that he is capable of managing his affairs.

Cohabitation

While Utah does not recognize common law marriages, it does not outlaw cohabitation. You can have a cohabitation relationship with your partner. If you want your cohabitation relationship to be recognized as a marriage, you must petition the court. Seek the assistance of an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer. If you do not petition the court, you will lose certain rights. Spouses have a right of inheritance. Cohabitating partners do not have this automatic right. A cohabitating partner can leave his estate to his partner by making a will. But if he dies intestate – without a will – the estate will be distributed according to the intestate laws of Utah and the cohabiting partner will not get anything. If you are in a cohabitation relationship in Utah, an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer can help you devise legal methods by which you can ensure that your partner gets a rightful share in your estate after your death.

Annulment of Marriage

Some marriages can be annulled. There is a difference between annulment and divorce. Speak to an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer to know if your marriage can be annulled. Often it is better to have a marriage annulled. The main difference is that once a marriage is annulled, for all legal and practical purposes, it’s as if the couple were never married. Whereas in the case a divorce, the couple were married but the marriage has legally ended.

Generally speaking, an annulment is a court decree of order that declares a marriage to be null and void. To annul a marriage in Utah, you must show that your marriage is invalid from the very beginning. Although an annulment differs from a divorce, if there are children involved, the court will have to decide on the issue of child custody, visitation and child support payments. A spouse can seek alimony even in an annulment case. Annulment does not result in waiver of alimony and child support. Utah law treats child support as belonging to the child and not the parent. So, the parents cannot decide on waiving child support.

Fraud is often the most common grounds for seeking an annulment. The spouse seeking the annulment must show that his or her consent for the marriage was obtained by fraud or the other spouse has hidden some information or lied about something that has direct impact on the relationship. If the marriage results in an incestuous relationship between the spouses, the marriage can be annulled. A wife can seek annulment of a marriage on the grounds that the husband is impotent. However, this claim must be backed by medical evidence.

Paternity

The issue of paternity comes up in a divorce proceeding where the spouses are fighting on the issue of child support. Often the husband will claim that he is not the father of the child to avoid paying child support. In such cases, a paternity lawsuit can help determine the biological father of the child.

An experienced Park City Utah family lawyer can also assist you in paternity lawsuits. Whether you are fighting to have your paternity proved or you are defending yourself against a paternity charge, you should always seek the help of an attorney. Paternity laws are complex. If you are declared the father of a child, you will have to provide child support till that child becomes an adult.

You may sometimes need to prove paternity to be able to get custody of your child. Paternity battle can be emotionally straining and can impact your ability to fight the legal battle alone. Hire the services of an experienced Park City Utah family lawyer.
