Types of Domestic Relations Issues

Domestic relations practices may also involve subjects like pre-nuptial agreements, separation agreements, child protection orders, adoptions, or other types of family-based legal relationships.

Contested or Non-Contested Divorce

This is one of the most frequently disputed areas of domestic relations law. In the Commonwealth of Virginia, depending on your circumstances, you may have either of these choices. Railey & Railey has represented clients on both types of cases. Please call us for advice at (757) 653-2351.

Juvenile and Domestic Relations Appeals

Have you had a case such as child custody that did not go your way? When a Final Order is entered in a Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court, you have 10 days to file an appeal in General District Court. If you feel the need and your appeal is accepted, you will get a trial “de-novo”.  Discovery methods which were unavailable in the lower court become available in the higher court.  These changes might help you.

An Ounce of Prevention is Worth a Pound of Cure

Regardless of the type of help you need, sound professional advice can save you time, money, and heartache when it comes to family matters.
