Property | Asset Division

Enforcement
In the unfortunate event that a former spouse fails to pay their spousal support obligation, remedies are available. When issues arise after a divorce, Degnan Law can offer advice and counsel to help you navigate post-judgment litigation. If an ex-spouse is refusing to pay the agreed upon or Court-ordered alimony, we can help you file an application with the Court seeking enforcement of the support obligation.

CHILD CUSTODY | CHILD SUPPORT
Unfortunately, child support issues can impact the entire family in negative ways. Whether the negotiated amount is insufficient, parties are not able to come to agreement over the terms, or one parent is neglecting to make court-ordered payments, these can all lead to much duress and hardship on all involved.
ALIMONY | SPOUSAL SUPPORT
Laws regarding alimony, or spousal support, are prone to change, but the major factors that go into determining alimony still remain:
- Are you in need of alimony?
- What is your spouse’s ability to pay alimony?
- How long have you been married?


PROPERTY | ASSET DIVISION
The idea behind equal division of community property in a Community Property state such as Arizona is that during a marriage, property is owned equally. From this it would make sense that in a divorce, all assets would be divided equally among the parties. However, Arizona is an equal division state, which means that they adhere to the equal division of community property — to an extent.
ENFORCEMENT
With the many complications involved in divorce, there are a variety of scenarios where enforcement of what has been ordered by the courts becomes a necessary reality. At Degnan Law, we can help you understand and implement the enforcement actions needed to ensure the court requirements are maintained and your children are cared for.
