Divorce

Experienced Augusta, Georgia, Divorce Lawyer

No one ever wants their marriage to end in divorce, but sometimes things get to a point where divorce is inevitable. When you think divorce might be the next step, talk to us about your options. At the Law Office of Shawn P. Hammond, we help clients and their children through the divorce process. Located in Augusta, Georgia, we can help you understand Georgia law so that you can make decisions that are right for you.

Georgia divorce law involves many legal decisions. Couples must discuss division of property in divorce, child custody orders, visitation, child support and alimony, among other things. Although modification may be possible in the future, it is very important for couples to make decisions they can live with. Sometimes these discussions are easy. Sometimes they are difficult.

When a fight is needed to protect your rights, we never hesitate to take action for you. We know what you are entitled to, and we make sure that no one takes that away from you during your divorce. Our attorney, Shawn Hammond, is as tough in court as he was fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq. He will not be intimidated by your spouse's legal counsel.

At the same time, sometimes a fight isn't the best way for families to resolve their differences during a divorce. Working collaboratively saves couples time, money and emotional stress. It can be best for children who won't have to be exposed to a long, drawn-out legal battle. When couples collaborate on a plan that works for them, they often do not have to depend on a judge's ruling to create all the terms of the divorce, and they may save money on legal fees and court costs. They can make sure that the agreement works for them and their unique needs.
