In this podcast episode, Family Law Attorney, Kimberly Brown, joins us to discuss how committing a crime can influence child custody, parenting time, spousal support, child support and the division of marital assets and debts in a divorce case, and what you can do if you're approaching a divorce with a criminal record.

In this podcast episode, Steve and Kimberly discuss the following topics:

  • The legal landscape of divorce can become significantly more complex when one spouse has been involved in criminal activities. 
  • Unfortunately, life choices do matter, and some can have severe consequences on divorce proceedings, potentially affecting the entire process. 
  • The added cost of dealing with a crime in your divorce case.
  • How a spouse's criminal record can influence the child custody, parenting time, spousal support, child support and the division of marital assets and debts 
  • Not all crimes are the same. 
  • When a criminal record can be used in court.
