The act of adoption is a legal process that creates a parent/child bond between persons without a natural parent/child relationship. The party who adopts a child becomes the legal parent of the child for all purposes, including the obligation to care for and provide for the child. The adoptive child is treated as a biological child by the law. Stepparents may adopt their stepchildren if their spouse consents to the adoption and the other biological parent consents, or if his/her consent is not required. Consent is not required if the other parent has had minimal contact with the child or if they have failed to provide financial support for the child one year prior to the filing of the petition to adopt.

When a CPO is issued, exceptions for parental communication regarding the child may be made in some cases. If visitation has been set prior to the CPO, and the child is a protected party, that visitation must cease until further order.

As attempting to exercise your visitation could result in a violation of the CPO, it is recommended that you speak with an attorney before taking any other action. If the child is not a protected party, exercising your visitation rights may still result in a violation of the CPO, particularly if both parties are normally present at the visitation exchanges. In such instances, the visitation orders or the CPO can be amended to avoid criminal liability for the respondent.

A prenuptial agreement, commonly called a “prenup”, is a contract entered into by two people prior to getting married. The prenup specifies the intent that the couple has for ownership and distribution of their property if the marriage ends by divorce, dissolution, legal separation, etc. Prenuptial agreements are a good way to protect yourself and your spouse if you divorce, even if that is the last thing on your mind as you plan a wedding. You can both agree how you would like your assets to be classified, specifying what will be separate property and kept by the owner, and what will be marital property and subject to equitable distribution. A prenup also can help both you and your future spouse by cutting out a large part of potential litigation in a divorce over assets.
