Hobson & Hobson: Roswell Family Law Attorneys
Well-equipped and at the ready, our Alpharetta family law attorneys have more than 30 years of combined experience. We understand that each family has unique needs and work with you to determine the best course of action in your particular circumstances.
Even if you expect a no-contest divorce, our lawyers may help you anticipate issues and work through alternatives if the proceedings take a different course. For example, if you are involved in a high-asset divorce, you and your partner may own a business together. Untangling those assets can be extremely complicated when the emotions run high.

We can also answer questions about Georgia's regulations regarding access to a shared home during divorce proceedings. We will advise you on what happens during mediation sessions, how to file a protective order to keep you and your children safe, and many other potential necessities in the family law context.

Roswell, Georgia Child Custody Attorneys
Georgia has very specific child custody laws that may not be obvious to people without family law experience. For example, a Hobson & Hobson lawyer can tell you what to expect from the co-parenting course that parents must attend under state law if they are involved in a custody suit.
Our attorneys can also explain the difference between physical custody and legal custody and help you understand how co-parents make decisions about faith, education, health, and extracurricular activities under different custody arrangements.
Remember that courts can alter child custody arrangements. Our Alpharetta, GA, family law attorneys can help you when your family circumstances have changed, perhaps since the court ruled on a child custody plan. One of the parents may deserve more or less contact with the children.
If one parent is a threat to a child, you could petition the court to terminate their parental rights. A Hobson & Hobson lawyer will discuss your options with you, taking into account your current situation, the other parent's circumstances, and your children's needs.
Experienced Child Custody Lawyers in Roswell, Georgia
Georgia's child custody laws generally favor joint custody. The legal framework design facilitates the children's relationships with both their parents, even after the family splits. However, that is not always the case, and judges have some leeway in determining the precise division of custody (even in a joint parenting arrangement).
Under the law, mothers and fathers are equally considered during custody suits and parenting planning. An experienced family law attorney in Hobson & Hobson team is the best option to present you with all your options and a long-term strategy.
Our attorneys will advocate for a fair agreement in the best interests of you and your children. We can also assist with grandparents' rights, adoption cases, and amendments to existing custody arrangements.
Our Alpharetta staff is experienced in a range of other custody issues, assisting clients in wading through extremely tense and complex custody arrangements with ease. If you need a child custody attorney in Alpharetta, Georgia, contact Hobson & Hobson today.
