DIVORCE
From the time the Petitioner files the Petition for Divorce, until the time the Final Decree of Divorce is signed by the Judge of the Circuit Court or Chancery Court, Tennessee has certain procedures that need to be followed. These procedures are all in accordance with Tennessee laws, encompassing spousal support, child custody and visitation, child support, and equitable distribution.Tennessee divorce laws are put in place for both the Petitioner and the Respondent to receive a fair divorce. Sometimes, hiring a divorce lawyer or mediator in your area is the best way to ensure that this happens.
