Domestic Law / Family Law

A large part of BMG's practice is devoted to Family Law. This area of the law is typically frustrating and heart wrenching. BMG has a reputation in both Carteret and Craven Counties as being aggressive in handling client's family law matters. We know that your family depends on us and we take that responsibility seriously.

This area of the law includes issues relating to:

  • Pre-Marital Agreements
  • Domestic Violence Issues
  • Divorce
  • Separation Agreements
  • Alimony
  • Adoption
  • Child Custody
  • Child Support
  • Distribution of Marriage Assets

In addition, the North Carolina Bar Association (NCBA) and the North Carolina Academy of Trial Lawyers (NCATL) have developed some public interest pamphlets, which address a few of these legal issues. These pamphlets are available online:

Child Custody Pamphlet (NCBA)

Child Support and Custody (NCATL)
(the link is under "public education brochures")

Divorce and Separation Pamphlet (NCBA)

Marriage in North Carolina Pamphlet (NCBA)

When A Marriage Fails (NCATL)
(the link is again under "public education brochures")

Family Violence (NCBA)
