Frequently asked questions — divorce lawyer in Nakhon Phanom

3 questions answered

File a contested divorce at the Juvenile and Family Court on statutory grounds (e.g., adultery, cruelty, three-year separation, non-support). We help compile the evidence and prepare the petition.
Property acquired before marriage is 'personal property' and stays with the owner. Property acquired during marriage, plus earned income, is matrimonial and split equally. Proof of origin is critical — we help inventory the assets and gather supporting documentation.
Courts weigh both parents' earning capacity, the child's standard of living, and age-appropriate expenses. If circumstances change later (e.g., the child starts at a private school), a petition to increase support can be filed.
