Divorce
A legal dissolution of a marriage, also referred to as a divorce, is very common in Delaware. A marriage can end at anytime and for almost any reason. Even when amicable the divorce process can cause great emotional pain, unpleasant feelings, and uncomfortable situations and scenarios for those involved. In the unfortunate event that you or your spouse file for divorce in Newark, Delaware it is critical that you consult with our Middletown Delaware Divorce Lawyers regarding protecting your rights under Delaware Divorce Law.
Child Support
Any time a relationship does not work out, whether it a marriage that is dissolving or two people that just do not want to be together anymore, it can get very complicated if those two people share a child. Issues regarding child support are always some of the most difficult to deal with in any domestic law case. Both sides need to be treated fairly financially while the child’s needs and welfare are also taken into consideration. It is always in your best interest to consult with a skilled and experienced Lawyer who practices Family Law when addressing any issues regarding child support. Please contact our Delaware child support lawyers for a case evaluation. Serving New Castle County, Kent County and Sussex County, Delaware.
Child Custody and Visitation
Decisions on how your child’s time will be divided between you and the other parent can be very difficult, frustrating and even frightening. No matter how challenging your child custody dispute might be for you, it is probably even more difficult for your child. That is why it is important to maintain focus on achieving a final result that is in the best interests of your child. Sometimes obtaining such is possible with just a little give and take by both parents until a written custody agreement can be reached. Other times, unfortunately, obtaining such a result is only possible by going to court.
Adoption
Paternity
Premarital Agreement
Because marriage is a legal and business arrangement, it may be wise to consult with an attorney about the advantages of premarital or prenuptial agreements.
Guardianship
The traditional Delaware family no longer involves one man and one woman. Families frequently involve single parents, grandparents or other third persons with guardianship rights. Whether your case involves pursuing third party visitation or grandparents rights I will guide you through the entire legal process.
Spousal Support
In the state of Delaware, if you are living physically separate from your spouse one of the various issues you may have to deal with is the issue of alimony or spousal support. You may be entitled to, or obligated to pay, spousal support immediately upon the physical separation from your spouse. And you may also be prohibited from receiving a lifetime of alimony simply because you did not request it soon enough. Know your rights and let Newark Delaware Spousal Support Lawyer Michael S. Corrigan do everything to protect your rights and interests.
Legal Separation
There are laws and legal procedures associated with divorce and all elements of family law in Delaware. A Delaware divorce will only be allowed by the courts once you have been separated for at least 6 months. This is commonly referred to as the ‘cooling off’ period. The only exception to this is if you are filing for divorce due to any type of abuse such as emotional, mental or physical. Other types of misconduct may include infidelity and desertion/abandonment. It is important to note that filing divorce on these grounds means that you will have to prove abuse before the divorce will be granted. If you can prove this then there is no time frame regarding legal separation prior to divorce.
Annulment

Criminal Defense
Assault
Restraining Order
At the Newark Law Office of Michael S. Corrigan, one of my primary areas of practice is protection from abuse (PFA). I represent clients seeking a restraining order as well as those the order is filed against. I bring a meticulous approach to these cases as accuracy is extremely important in making sure that victims and their children are protected as well as making sure that false accusations are not allowed to damage an individual’s reputation.
