Other times, \u201ctargeted discovery requests\u201d will prove sufficient. But, the discovery must be, targeted or my client will waste her or his money.<\/p><p>Discovery is propounding interrogatories, demanding documents, taking depositions, and other such things. As a trial attorney, I see daily that, despite strict court rules forbidding such behavior, discovery abuse is still a problem. It drives up litigation costs, delays resolution of disputes, and hinders justice.<\/p><p>Discovery abuse takes many forms, from \u201chiding the ball\u201d to demanding information compilation and production of information which is of little relevance, but time consuming and annoying. It\u2019s still fashionable in divorce litigation to demand the other side produce credit cards records going back years, when it is clear the debt will be shared equally. Also, to demand that the other side produce copies of checks going back years, as if the case hinged on the cost of a meal out.<\/p><p>Now, of course, they are cases where such obscure records do matter.<\/p><p>I think part of the problem is we lawyers practicing \u201cprotective lawyering.\u201d We\u2019re concerned that if we don\u2019t demand the production of every single document and something goes wrong, we\u2019ll be later blamed for not demanding every single document. I think we lawyers have to act with more common sense.<\/p><p>Sometime a party is entitled to alimony, which is different from child support. There are various types of alimony, depending on the needs of the recipient and the ability of the paying spouse, such as long term alimony, short term alimony, and rehabilitative alimony.<\/p><p>Most agreements providing alimony include language that the alimony ceases if the recipient is a relationship with the indicia of marriage. However, better reasoning is that the award or termination of alimony should not be based on morality, but economics. Even if someone moves in with someone, the economics, not the sleeping arrangement, should be what\u2019s examined. Does the recipient of the alimony still need support?<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50

children which determines the parenting plan, however obscurely the statutory and case law describe this.<\/p><p>Parents must be careful that they are really concerned with their children\u2019s best interests, rather than with less wholesome issues, such as power and control. Too many times I have seen parents try to \u201cGet even, get the kids!\u201d And, although \u201cparental alienation\u201d as a syndrome has fallen out of psychological favor, parental alienation and other psychological abuse is very real and very destructive to children.<\/p><p>I represent as many men, as women, in family law matters, and I advocate passionately for both.<\/p><p>How parenting affects child support is a dialectic between two different theories in family law.<\/p><p>The test for custody or residential responsibility is what\u2019s in the best interests of the children; what\u2019s essential for their health, safety, and welfare.<\/p><p>The test for child support is the needs of the children balanced against the needs of the non-custodial parent to satisfy those needs. By and large, the custodial parent is considered to be contributing to the children\u2019s needs by physically taking care of them. The courts try to determine this amount by formulas now, but each situation is truly unique and zealous and creative advocacy can make a great difference here.<\/p><p>In other words, you could have a wealthy, generous parent who shouldn\u2019t be allowed within 10 miles of the children.<\/p><p>You could also have a dead beat parent who is wonderful with the children.<\/p><p>The old adage \u201cIf you don\u2019t pay, you don\u2019t play,\u201d has no validity in family law.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column

states, it is the \u201cbest interests\u201d of the children which determines the parenting plan, however obscurely the statutory and case law describe this.<\/p><p>Parents must be careful that they are really concerned with their children\u2019s best interests, rather than with less wholesome issues, such as power and control. Too many times I have seen parents try to \u201cGet even, get the kids!\u201d And, although \u201cparental alienation\u201d as a syndrome has fallen out of psychological favor, parental alienation and other psychological abuse is very real and very destructive to children.<\/p><p>I represent as many men, as women, in family law matters, and I advocate passionately for both.<\/p><p>How parenting affects child support is a dialectic between two different theories in family law.<\/p><p>The test for custody or residential responsibility is what\u2019s in the best interests of the children; what\u2019s essential for their health, safety, and welfare.<\/p><p>The test for child support is the needs of the children balanced against the needs of the non-custodial parent to satisfy those needs. By and large, the custodial parent is considered to be contributing to the children\u2019s needs by physically taking care of them. The courts try to determine this amount by formulas now, but each situation is truly unique and zealous and creative advocacy can make a great difference here.<\/p><p>In other words, you could have a wealthy, generous parent who shouldn\u2019t be allowed within 10 miles of the children.<\/p><p>You could also have a dead beat parent who is wonderful with the children.<\/p><p>The old adage \u201cIf you don\u2019t pay, you don\u2019t play,\u201d has no validity in family law.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column
