What Makes a Marriage Invalid in Oklahoma City?
Not all marriages are ended through divorce, although it is the most common legal route to dissolve a marriage. Some marriages are ended through legal separation, which doesn’t legally end a marriage but allows spouses to separate their lives and assets. Marriages can also be ended through annulment, which doesn’t just create a date of separation, but it also treats the marriage as if it never legally existed. Annulments are easier for some couples, but there are specific qualifications that a couple has to meet to obtain an annulment. An annulment in Oklahoma will be granted by the court if
What Are the Advantages of an Estate Plan in Oklahoma City, OK?

How to Recognize and Address Parental Alienation
A divorce or separation is never easy on children, and they can react in any number of ways. Some children may resent one or both parents for realistic reasons in the emotional turmoil caused by their parents separating. In some cases, a child’s reaction to divorce is caused by one parent.

Some separating parents have deeply negative feelings towards their co-parent, or conflicts in the divorce become negative feelings. There is nothing wrong with this, but parents should avoid letting their children

Under equitable distribution, marital property is not necessarily split equally between spouses. Instead, the court reviews several factors about the marriage, such as marital misconduct and the income of each spouse, to determine what a fair split of property is. What Is Marital Property? Marital property is the only property that is divisible during a divorce. Oklahoma defines marital property, or shared property, as all assets and debts acquired
Understanding Protective Orders in Oklahoma
