Preparing for Divorce: Essential Documents for Fathers

Hey, my name is Heath Davis, and I am a practicing attorney in Tulsa, Oklahoma, specializing in father’s rights. One question that I commonly get asked is, what documents do I need in preparation for filing? Some of the most important documents you can gather to help your attorney out are your last three years’ worth of tax returns, your last six months of bank statements, and your last six months of credit card statements.

This is essential as it assists your Tulsa men’s divorce attorney in helping to prepare your case for a temporary order and if needed, a final order. It helps us determine what income information we need for child support calculations and what debt information we need in calculating who is responsible for paying what moving forward.

Additional Documents to Consider

In addition to financial documents, it’s also important to gather any documentation related to property ownership, investments, retirement accounts, and any other assets or liabilities you may have. This information will be crucial in determining how to divide marital property and debts during the divorce proceedings. It’s always better to provide more information than less, so don’t hesitate to include any other relevant documents that you think may be important for your case.

Remember, every divorce case is unique, so it’s important to consult with an experienced attorney to ensure you have all the necessary documents in order to proceed with your case successfully.
