Family Law

Legal Help You Can Trust with Any Family Law Matter

At the North Carolina family law office of Bush & Powers, we help people in the Charlotte area find creative solutions to family law problems. Whether you are considering marriage and want a premarital agreement, or you're considering divorce and need to negotiate custody and property division, our experienced family law attorneys offer effective guidance and support.

Our family law team is led by Tom Bush, a family lawyer with over 30 years of experience in the courtroom and at the negotiating table. Our firm works with clients at all income levels, including high-income and celebrity clients, clients who own family businesses or medical practices, and families with considerable wealth. These clients need a divorce lawyer who understands proper valuation and division of complex marital assets and executive compensation packages, as well as the need for discretion in divorce cases that could attract media attention.

Prenuptial Agreements

Some couples shy away from the idea of a prenuptial agreement, but in our experience, high-income clients and people entering second marriages gain peace of mind by discussing issues up front and establishing a prenuptial agreement. It ensures that both parties needs will be met.

In second marriage situations, it ensures the inheritance rights of children from a first marriage and protects the second wife's interests, too. We help couples through the process of drafting a prenuptial agreement that is fair and enforceable in court.

Domestic Violence and Restraining Orders

If your marriage has been affected by physical or emotional violence, you need and deserve protection under the law. Our family law attorneys will work hard to ensure you receive protection with a domestic violence restraining order (50B). We understand this is difficult and you may feel fearful of speaking to a lawyer, but for your safety, and that of children in your family, please contact us today or call 704.899.5559 or 866.638.3134. Take that first step toward finding peace and safety.
