Raleigh Alienation of Affection Lawyers
When you take your marriage vows before a community gathering, or even in front of just one witness, you are asking for the community’s support of your marriage. By attending the ceremony and not voicing any objections, the members of your community are pledging that support. Your friends and family are agreeing to help you with rough times, rather than working against your marriage.
Unfortunately, people do not always live up to the promises they make. When a person takes steps to ruin your loving relationship with your spouse, he or she is committing a civil offense called alienation of affection. To learn how you can take action against this hurtful behavior, contact a Raleigh alienation of affection lawyer through the Marshall & Taylor Law Firm, P.C., at 919-833-1040.
