Testimonials
Arabic prenuptial lawyer reviews in Indianapolis
Read what Arab American families in Indianapolis say about our Arabic-speaking prenuptial attorneys.
“My divorce was complicated because Indiana puts everything in one pot — even what I brought into the marriage. My lawyer fought for me to keep my inheritance and got a fair split. She understood the mahr issue and got it enforced as a contract. The 60-day waiting period felt long but she kept things moving. She spoke Arabic which made explaining private family matters so much easier.”

“Indiana's one-pot property rule scared me — they can divide everything, even what you brought into the marriage. My lawyer protected my inheritance and got my mahr enforced as a prenuptial contract. I won primary custody in Marion County and the 60-day waiting period went fast with good preparation. She spoke Arabic throughout.”
Rania L.

“I lost my job at a factory and fell behind on child support. My ex wanted me jailed for contempt. My attorney filed for modification in Allen County and the judge recalculated based on my real income. Payments went from $1,200 to $450 a month. He spoke Arabic and treated me with dignity.”

Indiana family law overview
Understanding Indiana's family law statutes helps you protect your rights and plan your case. Here's what you need to know.
Divorce Requirements
Conviction of a felony after the marriage, Impotence at the time of marriage, Incurable insanity for at least 2 years
Indiana is primarily a no-fault divorce state. "Irretrievable breakdown" is the most common ground and requires no proof of fault. Fault grounds exist but are rarely used. The mandatory 60-day waiting period begins from the date the petition is filed and served. Indiana courts encourage mediation before trial.
Property Division
Indiana uses a "one-pot" theory — all property owned by either spouse (whether acquired before or during the marriage) goes into the marital pot for division. The presumption is an equal (50/50) split, but the court can deviate based on several factors.
Indiana is unusual in that it does NOT automatically exclude premarital or inherited property — everything goes into the pot. However, the court may consider the contribution of each spouse, the economic circumstances, the conduct of the parties during the marriage, and the earnings or earning ability of each party in deviating from equal division. Mahr agreements may be analyzed under Indiana contract law principles.
Child Custody
Best interests of the child
Yes
- •The age and sex of the child
- •The wishes of the child's parents
- •The wishes of the child (with more weight given to children 14 and older)
- +5 more factors considered
Indiana courts prefer joint legal custody and encourage both parents' involvement. The Indiana Parenting Time Guidelines provide detailed schedules for non-custodial parents. Children age 14 and older may express a preference that carries more weight. Indiana also recognizes "de facto custodian" status for non-parents who have cared for a child.
Child Support
Indiana uses the income shares model based on both parents' combined weekly adjusted income, the number of children, and the parenting time each parent has. The Indiana Child Support Guidelines provide specific worksheets and tables for calculation.
Support continues until age 19 in Indiana (one of the higher ages nationally), or age 21 if the child is incapacitated. Indiana courts may also order educational support for college expenses. The child support obligation is calculated using specific guidelines worksheets that consider income, healthcare costs, and childcare expenses.
