Preparing for Divorce: Essential Documents for Fathers
Hey, my name is Heath Davis, and I am a practicing attorney in Tulsa, Oklahoma, specializing in father’s rights. One question that I commonly get asked is, what documents do I need in preparation for filing? Some of the most important documents you can gather to help your attorney out are your last three years worth of tax returns, your last six months of bank statements, and your last six months of credit card statements. This is essential as it assists your attorney in helping to prepare your case for a temporary order and, if needed, a final order. It helps us in determining what income information we need for child support calculations and what income information we need and what debt information we need in calculating who is responsible for paying what moving forward.
Additional Documents Needed
In addition to financial documents, it is also important to gather any documentation related to property ownership, such as titles for vehicles or deeds for real estate. Any documentation related to children, such as birth certificates or custody agreements, will also be necessary for the divorce process. Providing all relevant documents up front will help streamline the process and ensure that your attorney has all the information needed to represent you effectively.
Consult with an Attorney
If you are considering filing for divorce and are unsure about what documents you need, it is always best to consult with an experienced Tulsa men’s divorce attorney.
