Common questions about Family Law in Arizona
Answered by Arizona Attorney Search Network
What does 'legal decision-making' mean in Arizona?
Since 2013, Arizona has used the term 'legal decision-making' in place of 'custody' under ARS § 25-401. It refers to the right and responsibility to make major decisions for a child - education, healthcare, religion - and is awarded as either joint or sole decision-making by the court based on the best interests of the child.
Is Arizona a community property state?
Yes. Under ARS § 25-211, almost all assets and debts acquired during the marriage are community property, owned 50/50 regardless of whose name is on the title. Property is divided equitably (not necessarily equally) on divorce, and gifts and inheritances received individually generally remain separate property.
How does Arizona handle domestic violence in family-law cases?
ARS § 25-403.03 requires the court to consider documented domestic violence in legal decision-making determinations, and prevents joint legal decision-making where there has been significant domestic violence. Orders of protection are governed by ARS § 13-3602 and can be filed in Superior, Justice, or Municipal Court; an attorney is not required for filing.
