How We Approach Divorce And Custody Cases
When you are considering hiring a family attorney for a divorce or custody matter, it helps to understand how we actually approach the work from the beginning of your case to its resolution. We start by learning what matters most to you, such as preserving a parenting schedule that fits your children’s school in the Wake County Public School System, protecting a family home in Cary, or addressing concerns about communication with your co-parent. From there, we outline potential paths forward and discuss whether negotiation, mediation, or a court hearing in Durham County or Wake County is the best fit for your circumstances and comfort level.
Throughout the process, we prepare carefully so that you feel ready for each stage, whether that is a settlement discussion, mediation session, or appearance in family court. We help you gather documents, organize your thoughts about parenting time, and think through realistic financial budgets so that proposals you make or receive are grounded in your day-to-day life. Our team keeps you updated as deadlines approach and court dates are set, and we review what will happen at each appointment so you do not walk into the courthouse or a mediator’s office unsure of what to expect. By taking a structured, step-by-step approach, we aim to reduce the stress that can come with major changes in your family.
Local Support Groups You Should Know
Divorce and family law conflicts are stressful by default. You might feel overwhelmed as your case progresses and new complications arise. While we will do what we can to make things easier for you, we understand that you might also want expert help from other professionals and support groups.
Divorce-related support groups* for locals in Cary that may interest you are:
- DivorceCare: DivorceCare is a nationwide organization that helps connect people with divorce support groups. In Cary, NC, the current group usually meets in Good Hope Baptist Church.
- Women's Grow Group: Licensed Professional Counselor Leona Kimberly D’Amico hosts this support group that is specifically meant to help women move forward after divorce.
- Emotional Regulation Group for Kids: Hosted by LCSWA Clinical Social Work/Therapist Erin Breen, this group can be helpful for children who are struggling with life changes caused or exacerbated by divorce.

Many clients tell us that having both legal support and emotional support makes it easier to stay focused on the practical steps in their case, such as gathering financial records or preparing for mediation. If you are already working with a therapist, counselor, or church group in Cary or greater Wake County, we welcome that collaboration and can coordinate around important appointments or milestones. Our goal is to help you build a support network that allows you to make clearheaded decisions about your case, your parenting plan, and your financial future even when the situation feels difficult.
Where Will Your Family Law Case Go to Court?
Most family law and divorce cases that go to court in Cary, North Carolina, will go to Durham County Family Court for processing and litigation.
Important information about Durham County Family Court:
- Location: 510 S Dillard St #2000, Durham, NC 27701
- Phone number: 919-808-3015
- More information: https://www.nccourts.gov/locations/durham-county
If your matter is filed in Durham County Family Court, we can explain how scheduling works there, what to expect at status conferences or hearings, and how judges in that courthouse typically manage issues like temporary custody or support. For some Cary residents, certain issues may instead be heard in Wake County, and we can clarify which courthouse is appropriate and how that affects travel time, filing procedures, and local rules. Understanding where your case will be heard and what the courtroom process looks like often reduces anxiety and helps you feel more prepared when you appear in front of a judge.
