What should I include in a legal checklist for the New Year in Mecklenburg County?

A New Year legal checklist is a great way to start fresh and stay protected.

Here’s a solid one for Mecklenburg County families:

  • Review your custody schedule — what worked and what didn’t this year?
  • Update child support or spousal support information based on income changes.
  • Revisit your Parenting Plan to make sure it reflects your children's current needs.
  • Check your court deadlines.
  • Review insurance policies (health, dental, life) for you and your children.
  • Update your estate documents — especially beneficiaries and guardians.
  • Make sure your address and employment information are updated with the court, if required.

Plan early for summer break custody — summer is a major source of conflict if left until May.
