Fayetteville, North Carolina
Child Support and Child Custody Attorney

Child custody and child support are often the most contentious issues in divorce cases. At the Law Office of Bryce D. Neier, we help people throughout the Fayetteville, North Carolina, area obtain and maintain custody of their children. In child custody and child support cases, you need an experienced attorney. I am one of the few attorneys in this area who understands and practices International Child Custody and International Child Support Law.

Fayetteville, North Carolina, Child Custody Lawyer

North Carolina does not have a preference as to whether a child should be placed with their mother or father. The courts focus on what is in the best interests of the child. If you want to obtain custody of your minor child, you need to present evidence that demonstrates that you are the best parent to have primary custody of your child (ren).

Prior to a permanent custody hearing, there is a temporary custody trial, followed by mandatory child custody mediation. If the permanent custody arrangement cannot be resolved during mediation, the court will schedule a permanent custody trial. I aggressively represent my clients in the pursuit of the best interests of their child (ren).

Fayetteville, North Carolina Child Support Lawyer

In most divorces involving children, some amount of child support is ordered. An experienced North Carolina child support attorney can help you navigate the North Carolina child support guidelines to ensure that the correct amount of support is paid.

As an experienced child support lawyer, I understand that there are important challenges to be made prior to a child support order. For example, if there is evidence that the child is not biologically related to the father, it is imperative that a challenge be brought prior to any adjudication of custody and before a child support order is entered by the court. Once child support is ordered, or custody adjudicated, it is almost impossible to go back to court and argue that you are not the biological father.
