Plain-English guides to the law. General information, not legal advice.

Adoption Process in Rhode Island
Rhode Island adoption involves consent rules, a court-supervised home study, and (for newborn adoptions) a state-specific revocation window. 180 days for some revocations; 15 days for others.
Alimony in Rhode Island: How It Works
Rhode Island calls it alimony. Generally rehabilitative and time-limited; lifetime alimony is rare.
Annulment in Rhode Island
An annulment in Rhode Island declares that a marriage was never legally valid — different from divorce, which ends a valid marriage. Grounds vary; common ones include Bigamy, incest, mental incapacity.
Child Custody and Best Interests of the Child in Rhode Island
Rhode Island child-custody decisions are governed by the "best interests of the child" standard. No statutory joint-custody presumption — best-interests standard governs.
Child Emancipation in Rhode Island

Child Relocation Rules in Rhode Island
Rhode Island child-relocation requires court approval (or other parent's consent) for most moves that materially affect parenting time. Reasonable notice.
Child Support Calculations in Rhode Island

Cohabitation Agreements + Unmarried Couples in Rhode Island
Rhode Island unmarried couples have NO automatic rights to property, support, or inheritance — cohabitation agreements + careful estate planning are the only protection. "Common-law marriage" is rare + specific.
Collaborative Divorce in Rhode Island
Rhode Island collaborative divorce — both parties + attorneys agree NOT to litigate, instead use team approach with neutrals. If process fails, attorneys must withdraw, creating strong incentive to settle.
Common-Law Marriage in Rhode Island
Rhode Island is one of only a handful of states that still recognizes common-law marriage. Couples meeting the requirements have the same rights as ceremonially-married couples.
Family-Court Contempt in Rhode Island
Rhode Island family-court contempt enforces divorce decrees, child-support orders, and custody arrangements — civil contempt for compliance, criminal contempt for punishment. Jail time is real possibility for willful violators.
Divorce Grounds in Rhode Island
Rhode Island allows both no-fault and traditional fault-based divorces. Most divorces use the no-fault path: irreconcilable differences or 3-year separation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do courts decide custody?

By the child's best interests — each parent's involvement, stability, the child's needs and sometimes the child's wishes.

Can a custody order be changed?

Yes, usually when circumstances change significantly. A lawyer can tell you if your situation qualifies.

Do I need a family lawyer if we agree on everything?

Not always, but a lawyer can make sure the agreement is complete, fair and enforceable — especially when children, a home or retirement accounts are involved.

How much does a family lawyer in Warwick cost?

Most charge hourly against a retainer; some offer flat fees for uncontested matters. Ask for the fee structure in writing at your first meeting.

What should I bring to my first meeting?

Any court papers, a list of assets and debts, recent pay stubs and tax returns, and notes on your children's schedule if custody is involved.
