Canan Law Attorneys

When most people think of family law, they think about divorce and the legal complications it brings. But, at Canan Law, our family law practice is much more than divorce. We have helped hundreds of families with prenuptial agreements, child custody and support issues, and paternity suits.

For many people getting a divorce, how property and debt will be divided is always one of the most controversial issues to deal with. Non-marital assets are anything gained before the marriage. The court allows these assets to stay with the original party. Marital assets and debts will be divided by the judge based on equitable distribution. This is not a 50-50 split, but rather, a division that the court considers fair.
