Navigating Divorce with Clarity and Compassion

Louisiana is a community property state, which means assets and debts acquired during the marriage are generally split equally between spouses. But the reality of dividing a life together is rarely simple — and the decisions made during divorce have consequences that last for years.

Adam Huddleston understands that divorce is not just a legal process — it is an emotional one. He provides honest, straightforward advice about what you can realistically expect, works to reach fair resolutions where possible, and litigates aggressively when your rights and interests are at stake.

Whether your divorce is straightforward or highly contested, Adam and his team handle every aspect: property division, spousal support, asset valuation, debt allocation, and coordination with any child custody matters. You will never be left wondering what is happening in your case.

Common Questions

Divorce FAQ

Louisiana requires a mandatory waiting period before a divorce can be finalized. For couples without minor children, this is typically 180 days of separation. For couples with minor children, the waiting period is 365 days. Contested divorces with significant property or custody disputes can take longer. Adam will give you a realistic timeline based on your specific situation.
Louisiana is a community property state, meaning assets and debts acquired during the marriage are generally divided equally (50/50). However, separate property — assets owned before marriage or received as gifts or inheritance — typically remains with the original owner. Determining what is community versus separate property can be complex, particularly with long marriages or business interests.
Not necessarily. If both spouses agree on all terms (property, support, children), an uncontested divorce can be handled largely through paperwork with minimal court appearances. If there are disputes that cannot be resolved, the case will proceed to a hearing or trial before a judge. Adam works to resolve matters efficiently while being fully prepared to litigate when necessary.
The marital home is community property if purchased during the marriage. Options include: one spouse buying out the other's interest, selling the home and splitting proceeds, or — in cases with minor children — one parent remaining in the home temporarily for the children's stability. Adam advises clients on the financial and legal implications of each option.
