Technology in Family Law NYC

In today's digital age, technology plays a significant role in family law matters. From social media evidence in divorce cases to online harassment and cyberstalking, technology can be both a source of conflict and a powerful tool for resolving disputes. At Veridian Legal, our tech-savvy attorneys understand the complexities of technology in family law and can help you navigate these challenges effectively.

How Technology Impacts Family Law Cases

Technology has transformed the landscape of family law in numerous ways:

• Digital Evidence in Divorce: Social media posts, emails, text messages, and other digital communications can be crucial evidence in divorce proceedings. We can help you gather and present this evidence to support your case, whether it's to establish adultery, financial misconduct, or inappropriate behavior.

• Online Harassment and Cyberstalking: Online harassment and cyberstalking are serious issues that can have devastating consequences for victims. We can help you obtain restraining orders, document abuse, and pursue legal action against perpetrators.

• Digital Asset Division: Cryptocurrencies, online accounts, and other digital assets can be complex to value and divide in a divorce. We have the expertise to identify, track, and fairly distribute these assets.

• Parental Control Apps and Location Tracking: Parental control apps and location tracking tools can be used to monitor children's online activity and whereabouts. We can advise you on the legal implications of using these tools and help you establish appropriate boundaries.
