(1)

Experience and depth of knowledge make a world of difference in the quality of service a lawyer is able to provide to a client going through a divorce or custody proceeding. Since 1994, our attorneys have focused exclusively on family law. Limiting our practice in this way allows us to provide our clients the most effective representation. Our practice involves issues related to divorce, including

alimony, child support and custody. Our attorneys are active in the Nebraska State Bar Association and the Family Law Section of the Bar Association. Christopher Vacanti was chair of the Family Law section in 2007 and 2008 and Kelly Shattuck was an executive member of the family Law section in 2005 and 2006. They have both been members of the State Bar Executive Committee for Family Law, and all our attorneys have served as presenters in family law workshops for members of Nebraska’s legal community. Members of the firm have been regular guests on Omaha radio and television programs, including the Todd N Tyler Morning Show on Z92.

What Is The Difference Between Marital Debt And Separate Debt In A Nebraska Divorce?

In Nebraska, marital debt is defined as any debt or financial obligation incurred by either spouse during the marriage for the joint benefit of both parties, regardless of whose name is on the account. All marital debt will be subject to equitable division between the parties.

Debts incurred prior to the marriage usually remain the separate responsibility of the spouse who incurred them. Suppose a debt was incurred during the marriage, but it was personal in nature and in no way related to the joint benefit of the parties or legitimate household expenses. In that case, it may be considered a separate debt of the party who incurred it.

What Are Common Mistakes Unmarried Fathers Make During Custody Disputes In Nebraska?

Nebraska law limits or otherwise outright prevents an unmarried father from establishing paternity over a child once they reach the age of four. In some circumstances, these limitations or preventions cannot be overcome, even if there’s a genetic test proving you’re the child’s biological father.
