At John W. Lunsford, Attorney at Law, we concentrate on family law matters. Because we have been practicing family law in the Piedmont Triad for over thirty (30) years, we know the intricacies of North Carolina family law and how those may impact you. Some of the issues we handle include:

Divorce - When you face a divorce, you need an experienced attorney who will approach your case with care and consider the needs of your family. We have been working in family law for over 30 years and understand your questions. We examine your case with a creative approach designed to consider the long-term effects a break up may have on your family and your happiness. Our firm has experience with such claims as alienation of affection and criminal conversation, ancillary to typical divorce proceedings.

Custody and Visitation - If you have children, you want the best for them. While a divorce may be inevitable, you can still provide security, stability and a bright future for your kids. We will help you choose the right options in accordance with North Carolina law and the unique needs of your family. Our firm takes on custody and visitation matters relating to your current divorce and post decree custody and visitation issues.

Child Support / Spousal Support - Each state has a special formula for determining child support obligations and alimony. Like most states, the law in North Carolina changes on a regular basis. When you have child support or spousal support issues, your lawyer should be current on those changes. Because we practice only family law, we constantly work with the new and most up-to-date requirements.

Adoption / Termination of Parental Rights - The adoption process can entail various twists and turns. Regardless of the situation, you want your family reality to match the legality as quickly as possible. The child who considers your mate "dad" or "mom" needs to have that become a legal reality. Our experience allows us to handle your adoption in the quickest possible manner. Occasionally, an adoption requires a search for a missing parent or termination of parental rights. We have handled many such cases and have the process streamlined for our clients.

Property Division - During your marriage, you and your spouse accumulated assets together. You also obtained personal assets prior to your marriage or perhaps there was a family gift or inheritance. We have represented many clients in division of property matters, what we in North Carolina call Equitable Distribution. Our experience includes matters of valuation and division of complex assets, including 401(K) savings, stock options, vacation homes, and small businesses.

Pre-Nuptial Agreements or Post-Nuptial Agreements - Also known as ante-nuptial agreements, "prenups" can help you start your marriage with a sense of security and open approach to your finances. Post-nuptial agreements help you define your rights. Take the uncertainty out of the equation. Plan your future -- it is far better than having a Judge do such after the fact and after thousands of dollars in legal fees are spent.
