Divorce
In 2002, the Oklahoma legislature passed some pretty major reforms in the area of divorce law in Oklahoma. One of the changes is to give children a limited say in the custody/visitation arrangement. Under the new law, a child may express a preference to the judge. If the child has sufficient capacity to choose, the judge must either adopt the child's wishes, or make specific findings of fact as to why the child's wishes are not being followed. The law also creates a presumption that a child of 12 years or older has sufficient capacity. If the child is under 12, the judge can make a determination that the particular child has sufficient capacity. If the child is 12 or older, the court can find that the child lacks sufficient capacity.

Child Support
Yes. There is a statute in Oklahoma that expressly allows contracts between husband and wife. There are limits to what a husband and wife can agree, however. After marriage, the ability of spouses to contract for the disposition of property or child support are subject to revision by a divorce court.
Child Custody and Visitation
Separate Maintenance, sometimes called a "Legal Separation", is a legal status conferred by a court, where the parties remain married, but the court sets the rights and liabilities of the parties with respect to child custody, support, visitation, alimony, property and debts. A decree of separate maintenance cannot be "converted" to a divorce decree. If parties in a legal separation later desire a divorce, they must file a new divorce action.
Spousal Support
Support Alimony is rapidly becoming a thing of the past. The determination of Alimony is based on the need of the receiving party, and the ability of the paying party to pay.
Legal Separation
Annulment
The Common Law marriage can be terminated in the same way a ceremonial marriage can be terminated--annulment, divorce or death. The only difference between a ceremonial marriage and a common law marriage is the method of creation of the marriage itself. Once created, there is no difference between the ceremonial marriage and the common law marriage whatsoever.

Prostitution
"Lawful purpose" means the goal(s) of the contract may not be illegal, nor may the means necessary to achieve the goal. Contracts for an illegal purpose are "void, and courts will not enforce them, nor will courts order whatever was given to be returned. Gambling and prostitution are examples of contracts for illegal purpose in Oklahoma.

Employment Contract
In a word, yes. People often think that they do not have a "lease" or an "employment contract" because there is no paper evidencing the agreement. This confuses the "contract" with the "writing".

Real Estate Litigation

Auto Accidents

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
By proceeding beyond this point, you are acknowledging the terms and conditions of the express disclaimer, and are agreeing to those terms and conditions.

Bankruptcy
A personal bankruptcy filing is a legal proceeding by which a person seeks relief from their obligation to pay bills, loans and credit card debt that they are financially unable to pay. As a result of many factors people are unable to pay their bills. The most common reason someone files bankruptcy is divorce. Other reasons for filing include job layoffs and unforeseen medical expenses arising from accident and illness.
