Single parents juggle so much—providing for their children, managing daily responsibilities, and navigating complex legal challenges. Yet, the legal system is not always designed with their realities in mind. At Fadem Law, we advocate for fair custody arrangements, accessible child support enforcement, and legal protections that empower single parents to create stable, loving homes.

Too often, single parents face unnecessary legal battles just to secure what their children deserve. Family law should work for families, not against them. That’s why we fight to ensure single parents have the legal support they need to protect their children’s well-being.

If you or someone you know is struggling with custody, child support, or co-parenting challenges, you are not alone. We’re here to help.

Believe it or not, divorce was illegal in South Carolina until 1949 and in Nebraska until 1972! Before then, couples had to prove extreme circumstances, like abandonment or abuse, just to separate.

Today, California is a no-fault divorce state, meaning you don’t need to prove wrongdoing to end a marriage. If you're considering divorce, FADEM Law is here to guide you through the process with care and expertise. 💼

When navigating child custody, documentation is key. Keeping a parenting journal can help ensure accurate records of your time with your child and any co-parenting challenges.

✅ Track visitation schedules—document pick-ups, drop-offs, and any missed time.
✅ Note important events—record school activities, medical appointments, and daily routines.
✅ Document communication—save texts and emails related to co-parenting.

Having clear, organized records can strengthen your case in custody proceedings. Need guidance? FADEM Law is here to help.
