Filing for Divorce in Arizona On The Increase

If you and your spouse believe that you have reached the end of your marriage and want to file for divorce, getting help from an experienced family law attorney is critical.  Regardless of whether you will be going through a dissolution of marriage with or without children, a divorce lawyer can help you avoid mistakes that could potentially harm your future and interests.

In any divorce, there are multiple factors that each person needs to know about, and could use the help of a family law firm that is compassionate and will stop at nothing until the client receives the best possible outcome.

Below is an overview of what to expect in a divorce without kids vs. a divorce with kids.

 

Arizona Divorce without Children Involved

In an Arizona divorce, if you and your spouse do not have any minor children (younger than 18), you might believe that your divorce will be relatively straightforward. However, even if you are divorcing without children, many issues still need to be resolved.

Some of the issues that might arise in a divorce without children include:

  • Spousal maintenance;
  • Property and debt division;
  • Who will retain ownership and responsibility for pets;
  • Whether a spouse desires to change their last name upon divorce;
  • How your divorce might impact your ability to retire

Thinking through these important issues and making a strategic plan to resolve them favorably is key to protecting your future interest after the divorce is finalized.

There are several ways to resolve a dispute without going through a divorce trial, including participating in mediation, pursuing negotiations informally, and partaking in the collaborative divorce process.

Having the assistance of an experienced divorce and property division attorney from Colburn Hintze Maletta can help you to resolve divorce-related issues and conflicts fairly while protecting your interests and preserving your potential ability to retire on time.

Below is a brief overview of each of the methods mentioned above that are out-of-court alternatives for dispute resolution.

Arizona Private Mediation – Alternative to Family Court

In private mediation, both spouses meet with a trained and neutral third-party mediator. The mediator talks to each party (separately) about each issue in dispute and works to facilitate an agreement. In many cases that don’t involve children, mediation is an excellent option because there are many creative ways to achieve a fair compromise, or uncontested divorce when the primary issues in dispute relate to the division of assets and debts.

If an agreement is reached during mediation, a Consent Decree will be drafted and signed by the parties based upon the agreed-upon terms.  After the parties sign the Consent Decree, it is submitted to the court for the judge to sign and file with the clerk of court, thereby making it an official order of the court and finalizing the divorce.

Having the help of an experienced attorney during private mediation is crucial to finding a resolution that is acceptable to all parties involved.  It is also essential to ensuring that final paperwork is completed properly.

As an added bonus, a successful mediation almost always results in a quicker and less expensive divorce than litigating a case all the way to trial.

Arizona criminal speeding tickets are one of the most common traffic violations. You can get a criminal speeding ticket for exceeding 85 miles per hour, or 20 miles over the posted speed limit. There are also criminal speeding tickets possible if you are going more than 35 miles an hour near a school zone.

In Arizona, criminal speeding is a Class 3 misdemeanor that identifies a speeding violation as a criminal infraction under Arizona Revised Statutes 28-701.02.

This article will talk about how to avoid criminal speeding in Arizona and what happens when you do receive a criminal speeding ticket there.

What are the Types of Criminal Speeding Violations?

There are three methods to obtaining a criminal speeding violation in Arizona, all of which are outlined below.

Traveling at speeds of more than 85 miles per hour is considered Excessive Speed Under ARS 28-701.02a3

Excessive speed is the most frequent sort of criminal speeding violation. Even in a 75 miles per hour speed limit zone, traveling 86 miles per hour is a violation of this section.  

Those who travel through Arizona’s more rural areas, particularly between significant tourist destinations such as the Grand Canyon, Sedona, and Flagstaff, are frequently charged with this type of crime.

Exceeding posted speed by 20 miles per hour Under ARS 28-701.02a2

This is another frequent type of traffic violation, which is generally seen in the major cities of Arizona’s more urban areas. This infraction takes place at any speed that is over 20 mph above the legal limit. Some examples are as follows:

  • traveling 46 miles per hour or above in a 25 mile per hour zone
  • traveling 56 miles per hour or above in a 35 mile per hour zone
  • traveling 80 miles per hour or above in a 55 mile per hour zone

Exceeding 35 miles per hour near a school zone Under 28-701.02a1

The least frequent criminal speeding charge is this one, but it may happen in more populated regions around school zones. This violation must occur within a designated school zone, which usually includes the presence of signs.

Many people are surprised to find out that this infraction is punishable by potential jail time.
