Property Division Lawyer in Cumming, GA

Protecting Your Property Rights During Divorce

The property decisions made during divorce will define your post-divorce financial security. The attorney you hire to represent you through this process will have a major impact on the outcome. Do you want someone who has only read about divorce law in a book? Or someone who has actual experience and a record of results? At The Epps Law Group, our Cumming property division lawyer has been representing clients during divorce for over 20 years. We understand the important property and parental rights at stake. Our goal is to protect your rights and interest throughout the process so you can move forward to a brighter future.

What Properties Are Divided During Divorce?

During divorce all marital properties will be divided between the spouses.

Separate properties remain separate. This makes the initial classification of assets as marital or separate extremely important.

We begin by identifying all properties held by each spouse. Then we trace those assets to determine if they were acquired during the marriage, or if initially separate properties were commingled in any way.

The next step is to accurately value each marital asset. The process used to do this depends on the asset involved. We have a network of financial experts we call upon to assist us with more complicated properties. This approach allows us to move toward a property division plan with certainty.

How Is Property Divided During Divorce?

In Georgia, marital property is divided based on the principle of equitable distribution. This does not mean assets are divided 50-50, or that you get a one-half interest in all marital property. Instead, the courts divide property based on what is most “fair.” This determination involves the evaluation of many factors and the courts have great discretion.

The best way to protect your financial interests during this process is to work with a skilled divorce lawyer – someone who has experience handling complex divorce and someone who knows his way around the courtroom.

When we handle your divorce, we have one goal: To help you leave your marriage in the most financially secure manner possible. We are committed to maximizing your share of marital assets so you can move forward with certainty.

    "Attorney Epps and his paralegal, Elicia, worked wonders for me!"
    Attorney Epps and his paralegal, Elicia, worked wonders for me! It was a really scary time, and they both reassured me and got the best result I could have hoped for for my case.

    "I am so grateful for meeting this man."
    I don’t even know where to start when it comes to Kyle Epps. I walked into his office 3 years ago and the charges I had called for prison time. He gave me an outline on what to do, and of course, I said I’ll do this and this but not that. He pushed me hard and gave me every tool I needed to stay free. Three years later I went to court and walked out just about a free man. Not only didn’t his way work in the courtroom but it’s changed my life in every single way you could imagine. He was very stern, but he totally knew what he was talking about. His plan is 100%, it’s just a person has to do the footwork. He’s very professional and his team is on top of everything so you don’t slip through the crack. I am so grateful for meeting this man, I would not be the person I am today clean and sober if I didn’t walk into that office 3 years ago.

    "Kyle and Elicia were beyond fantastic!"
    Kyle and Elicia were beyond fantastic! I never dreamed like most people that I would be faced with being told I want a divorce, especially after 15 years years. But they were there to make the process as easy as possible and as civil as possible and keep the kids 1st. I eventually made it through still sane all thanks to Kyle and his team. I can't say enough great things and another HUGE plus is they were beyond reasonable cost-wise! They will be my go-to for any other needs in the future.

    "I trusted him. This was the best decision I made."
    After researching for several days, I spoke to several attorneys and, The Epps Law Group was my final choice to represent me for my Simple-Battery case. Before I hired this team, I spoke to Attorney Kyle Epps directly, which made a big difference. He outlined a plan for me and said, “if you stick to the plan I give you, you will be ok”. As vague as that response was, I trusted him. This was the best decision I made.

    From the moment I began working with their team, I spoke to one of their Paralegals, Elicia Davis, assigned to my case. I cannot express how knowledgeable, non-judgmental and helpful Elicia was with navigating me through my case. It was my first time dealing with the Forsyth County courts and legal system and I had gone through an emotional rollercoaster for the first couple of months. Elicia checked in constantly throughout the early stages and did everything she could to comfort my anxiety and stick to Attorney Kyle Epps’ plan.

    As promised, I stuck to the plan 100% and I received news that my case was dropped, I no longer needed to go to court and I only need to address a fine and attend classes. I strongly believe that Attorney Epps’ work experience in the Forsyth courts, relationships with the prosecutors, and background as a police officer in Forsyth County gives his clients an advantage. He is well respected and is more than familiar with the process. His plan works and I honestly believe I would not have had the same outcome if I did not have The Epps Law Group on my side.

    "Good work, Kyle, and thanks again!"
    Kyle did his job well for me. I was struck with a DUI last year. Knowing nothing about this I hired Kyle, due to his extensive background in law enforcement and the knowledge he provided. He laid out everything about the case during our free consultation, and it made sense. He saved my license by calling for an ALS hearing and got my charge knocked down to reckless driving. I would never have been able to do that myself, especially with an already busy schedule. Good work, Kyle, and thanks again!
    - Dylan P.
    "Kyle was amazing to work with!"
    Kyle was amazing to work with! He highly exceeded my expectations and was very friendly and helpful. I have had other family members work with him and he has been overly helpful and an amazing experience to work with!!
    - Molly P.
    "Kyle did a great job on my daughter’s case, and we are very thankful."
    Kyle did a great job on my daughter’s case, and we are very thankful. Things would have been much different had we not had him as our attorney. Communicating with his office is so easy. They have a client portal that you can log into to see appointments, documents, and messages. Elicia, his paralegal, is a pleasure to deal with as well. Highly recommend Kyle.

    "He exceeded my expectations at every point."
    Kyle helped me with a family law matter and also with having a stolen car returned. He exceeded my expectations at every point. He was always available, thoughtful, knowledgeable, courteous and matter of fact. From the beginning, I always felt he had my back. If any of my friends, family, or acquaintances ever need an attorney, I will recommend Kyle.
