Experienced family law attorney that can assist you with all your legal needs. Divorce is one of the worst things that can happen in a person's life.

You need an attorney that can take care of all your legal needs every step of the way and to explain the process. You also need someone that will not tell you what you want to hear in hopes of earning your fee. Your time and money are valuable and you deserve to be treated that way. I've focused my practice on domestic law for the past eight years. I have extensive trial, mediation, and negotiation experience.

Stop! Before you sign that agreement or send that impulsive text out of frustration, take a deep breath. 🛑✋

When emotions run high during a divorce, the temptation to make quick choices just to get it over with is huge. But a split-second decision made today can impact your finances, your rights, and your kids for years to come.

Learn the key questions you MUST ask yourself before making any major moves in your divorce, and how to make decisions that protect your future, not just your current mood.

One of the most common questions we hear at our Lincolnton office is: "Can we just live in separate bedrooms and start our one-year separation clock?"

In North Carolina, the short answer is no.

Under NC law, an absolute divorce requires 365 continuous days of physical separation under separate roofs, with at least one spouse intending the separation to be permanent. A weekend attempt at reconciling or staying in the same home can inadvertently reset that clock back to Day 1.

Swipe through to see what truly qualifies as legal separation in North Carolina, what accidentally resets your timeline, and why you don’t have to wait a full year to resolve custody or property division.

Few things are more frustrating than having a clear court order, only to have the other party ignore it. 🛑

Whether it’s missed visitation times, withheld child support, or refusal to comply with property terms, ignoring a judge’s order has real legal consequences in North Carolina. But taking matters into your own hands (like withholding visitation in response) can actually hurt your legal standing!

The right move? Document the pattern and file a Motion for Contempt to enforce the order legally.

Planning a wedding? 💍 Don't forget to plan for your financial foundation!

There’s a huge misconception that prenuptial agreements mean you’re "planning for failure."" In reality, a prenup is one of the most proactive, loving conversations an engaged couple can have! 💬✨

A solid prenuptial agreement helps protect premarital assets, small businesses, inheritance rights, and clarifies financial expectations before you say "I do."

Start your marriage with total clarity and trust. Tap the link in our bio to schedule a private consultation with Jennifer Hames! ⬇️

High-conflict custody cases can put children in a stressful position—and no parent wants their child caught in the middle. 🧸⚖️

That’s where a Guardian Ad Litem (GAL) comes in. A GAL acts as a neutral party whose sole job is to investigate, speak up, and advocate for what is genuinely in the child's best interests. This keeps kids out of the courtroom while ensuring their voice and welfare are protected.

Jennifer Hames has extensive experience serving as a Guardian Ad Litem in NC courts.

A child support order made three years ago might not match your reality today. 📉📈

Life happens—jobs change, medical expenses shift, and child care costs fluctuate. In North Carolina, child support orders aren't set in stone forever; they can be modified if there has been a "substantial change in circumstances."

Whether you are paying or receiving child support, it’s vital to adjust court orders officially rather than relying on informal verbal promises.

Is your current order no longer working for your family? Tap the link in our bio or message us directly to discuss your options! ⬇️
