What Rights Do Fathers Have During Divorce?
Regardless of what you hear and who you hear it from, in North Carolina, dads have the same rights as mothers during a divorce. You will have to take a proactive approach and work with an experienced attorney to ensure your rights are respected and protected. Most fathers fear that the court proceedings will treat them unfairly during child custody proceedings. Some spouses even use this myth to threaten good dads, even going as far as blackmailing them.
Not on our watch.
You deserve aggressive legal representation in your family law case. The Law Office of Jana K. Jones, PLLC, is here to represent you and your best interests. This is to ensure that you receive the same treatment as your soon-to-be former spouse.
As a father, you have the right to:
- Seek primary or joint custody
- Parenting time
- Be involved in major decisions regarding your child
Anyone who tells you otherwise is lying to you.

Client Testimonials
Extreme Professionalism
Attorney Jana Jones recently completed an extraordinary job on my case. I can admit that not all attorneys are created equal. She proved that some are actually professional, proficient, honest, and diligent. Both she and her staff (Carmella) make you forget that you are dealing with a traumatizing situation. This is because they are solution based and focused on getting you your life back. Attorney Jones got me equal time with my son and did it with extreme professionalism. She was not adversarial as that is counterproductive to the process but can be if needed ,and does not play court games and does not grandstand before the court like an episode of Matlock. She understands the laws and the complicated court process. She did not waste time and gets right down to business to ensure her client can be treated fairly in the process. She is solution based and deals with facts to bring closure to your situation.
I do not wish anybody to go through this process. However, I can honestly say that if life ever throws you a curve ball in the way of custody, child support, or divorce Attorney Jana Jones will knock it out of the park for you and allow you to focus on your bright future ahead. Without her and her staffs organization my son and I would not have been able to move forward in life with a joint relationship. This is all due to Attorney Jones passion and vigilance when it comes to representing her clients and their best interests."

Highly Recommend Attorney
Words cannot express the great experience that I had with Attorney Jones and her staff in what is a challenging and difficult situation for anyone. She is straight-forward and to the point but also is kind and puts one at ease. She does an an excellent job of being responsive, communication, and follow-up. Moreover, she always had time for questions and supports you throughout the process. Divorce and family issues are tough and I wish that no one has to experience it. However, I HIGHLY recommend Attorney Jones as she provides sound legal advice but remembers the human side as well. I definitely recommend Attorney Jana K. Jones.

Unmatched in Court Room
Attorney Jana K. Jones is very professional, kind, highly competent, well versed and ready to fight for you in court. She proved thorough and prepared, always staying ten steps ahead and never losing sight on what was most important. She offered solid advice and guidance up to the court day and even encouragement on the lunch break. Her calmness and strong presence in the court room is unmatched. She’s solid. She is also a lawyer that takes the high road. She does not resort to petty things that are not pertinent to the case. Attorney Jones fought for what was most important —the well being of our children. Thanks to her, we now have primary custody of our boys. We can’t thank her enough and would readily recommend her because she is someone with integrity and heart. So once again, thank you, Attorney Jana K. Jones for all you’ve done for us!
Respectfully,
Emi & Scott Byam
