Gilbert Divorce Lawyer

Where Gilbert divorces are filed

Dissolution cases are Superior Court matters; southeast Valley families are commonly assigned to the Southeast Regional Court Center, with your case documents controlling. The rules are statewide: 90-day residency, no-fault grounds, the 60-day waiting period, community property.

Children first — by law and in practice

With minor children, the decree must resolve legal decision-making and parenting time on the best-interests factors and set child support under the guidelines. School choice deserves particular care in a Gilbert parenting plan — joint legal decision-making means neither parent decides it alone, and a plan that names the dispute-resolution path saves a court date later.

The house and everything else

The family home is usually the biggest asset: equity divides as community property, and the practical choice — sell and split, or one spouse refinances and keeps it — is as much a lending question as a legal one. Most cases settle by Rule 69 agreement; the full process is on our divorce page.
