We are so happy to have found New Direction Family Law. Sarah Hink has been a breathe of fresh air! Her and her team work so hard to provide timely communication and explain things along the way. Sarah helped our family during a stressful time. We are so thankful for her legal representation. If any problems ever arise, we feel reassured knowing she’s in our corner.

My family was in a unique position approaching our divorce, (during a pandemic at that!) and New Direction Law Firm stepped in and made the entire process simple and painless. They were informative, efficient, and timely. Very thankful for them!

- BEWARE - They charge $300 for a 30min consultation and they won't even give you an idea of what the retainer would be like till after you pay and meet with them. I spent $300 just to find out I can't even afford them anyways and they didn't want to work with me on a payment plan even though before I paid the $300 I was told that it could be arranged. if you don't have 10k to fork out save yourself the consultation fee :(

If the parties can settle all or some of their issues, they can go to trial and have a judge decide their future. The length of your trial can last from a few hours to many days. It depends on the time the court allocates as well as the number and complexity of the issues to be decided.

What is divorce from bed and board?

New Direction Family Law | Sep 18, 2020

If your spouse has engaged in unprovoked and un-condoned marital misconduct, making your marriage and your family life intolerable, you may file a claim for a divorce from bed and board. Divorce from bed and board is a legally sanctioned separation based on a claim of misconduct. If you wish to remarry, however, you must still obtain a judgment of absolute divorce.

How long do I have to be separated to get a divorce in North Carolina?

New Direction Family Law | Sep 18, 2020
New Direction Family Law | Sep 18, 2020

In North Carolina couples have to be separated for at least one year and a one day before they can file a complaint asking the court for an absolute divorce. Separation means that husband and wife live separate and apart in different residences. Merely living in different bedrooms or different areas of a house does not qualify as being separated in the eyes of the law.
