Grandparents play an irreplaceable role in many children's lives. But when families experience separation or conflict, maintaining that relationship can become complicated.

Tennessee law does recognize grandparent visitation rights in certain circumstances, but those rights are not automatic. There are specific legal standards that must be met before a court will order visitation over a parent's objection.

Recent legislative updates have also addressed how attorney's fees are handled in these cases, which can affect how both sides approach the process.

If you are a grandparent seeking visitation, or a parent with questions about how this applies to your situation, understanding where the law stands is the right first step.

This weekend, we pause to honor the men and women who gave everything in service to this country.

At Gill Family Law, we are grateful for their sacrifice. We remain committed to serving the families they left behind.

Military families face unique legal challenges: deployments affecting custody arrangements, multi-state jurisdictions, relocation orders. If your family is navigating any of these, we are here.

To all who served and to those who loved them, thank you.

Family law cases do not always unfold in a straightforward way. Sometimes mental health challenges or substance use are part of the picture.

When that happens, courts consider the impact on the child's well-being, each parent's ability to meet the child's needs, and what arrangements would provide the most stability.

These cases require thoughtful, careful legal counsel. The right attorneys approach the complexity with experience rather than assumptions.

Gill Family Law handles cases involving mental health and substance use issues as part of our family law practice. We work to ensure the full context of a situation is understood and represented properly.

Family law applies to every family.

At Gill Family Law, we represent LGBTQ+ clients navigating divorce, adoption, custody, and other family law matters. Every family deserves knowledgeable, respectful legal representation, and that is exactly what we provide.

Legal questions around LGBTQ+ families can be nuanced. Parental rights, adoption procedures, and custody arrangements each carry their own considerations. Having an attorney who is experienced in these matters makes a meaningful difference.

If you have questions about how Tennessee family law applies to your situation, we are here to help.

In some contested custody cases, the court appoints a guardian ad litem: an attorney whose sole job is to represent the child's best interests.

The guardian ad litem is not your attorney. They are not the other parent's attorney. They work independently to investigate the situation and give the court a clearer picture of what arrangement would genuinely serve the child.

Their involvement often includes interviews with both parents, visits to each home, conversations with teachers or counselors, and a formal report or recommendation to the court.

Their voice can carry significant weight in the outcome of the case.

If a guardian ad litem has been appointed in your case, understanding their role matters.

Myth: Divorce means losing half of everything.
Fact: Tennessee follows equitable distribution, which means fair, not necessarily equal.

Courts look at what is marital property and what is separate property. They consider each spouse's contributions, the length of the marriage, financial circumstances, and a range of other factors before dividing assets.

The result is rarely a simple 50/50 split. It is a division that reflects the full picture of the marriage and each person's situation going forward.

Understanding how this works before your case proceeds can help you set realistic expectations and make better decisions.

School is almost out. If you share custody, summer looks a little different.

Most parenting plans address summer scheduling, but the details vary. Some plans have specific summer provisions built in. Others default to the standard schedule unless both parents agree to changes.

Now is the time to review your plan and get ahead of potential conflicts around vacations, camps, travel, and extended time with each parent.

A few questions worth answering before June arrives:
Does your plan address summer separately?
What is the process for requesting vacation time with your child?
How far in advance do travel notifications need to be given?

If your plan needs updating or you have questions about how it applies this summer, Gill Family Law is here to help.

A job offer. A family move. A fresh start in a new city.

When one parent in a custody arrangement wants to relocate, it can have major implications for the parenting plan, custody schedule, and the child's routine.

Tennessee law requires that a parent with a custody agreement follow a specific process before relocating. That typically means providing written notice to the other parent and, when there is an objection, seeking court approval.

The outcome depends on the circumstances, the distance, and the existing arrangement. It is never automatic.

If relocation is on the horizon for your family, understanding the process early makes a real difference.

Gill Family Law handles multi-jurisdictional custody and relocation cases across Tennessee and Mississippi.

Adoption is one of the most meaningful legal processes a family can go through, and one of the least understood.

In Tennessee, adoption can take several forms: stepparent adoption, foster care adoption, private placement, and more. Each has its own process, timeline, and requirements.

What stays consistent is the goal: creating a permanent, legal family bond.

The process involves court proceedings, background checks, home studies in many cases, and ultimately a judge's order that makes everything official.

Gill Family Law handles adoption cases with the care and attention they deserve. If you are considering this step, we are here to help you understand what it involves.
