Family Law Representation: How Can We Serve You?

Family law encompasses a broad range of legal services. Since family law issues deal specifically with the people nearest and dearest to us, emotions tend to run high among those involved in a family lawsuit. As your dedicated family attorney at the Lake of the Ozarks, I am here to take the burden off of your shoulders as much as I can. Keep reading to learn more about some of the family law services I offer and how I may be able to help you with your next case.



Divorce
Divorce is, unfortunately, a fact of life for nearly half of all married couples in the United States. Dissolving any marriage is challenging and emotional, but often it becomes even more challenging when the couple shares children and/or significant assets or debts. In high-stakes divorces such as these, securing representation from an experienced divorce attorney in Camden County MO is essential.

Adoption
Regardless of the reason you choose to adopt, the decision to welcome a new child into your family is exciting to say the least. In order to successfully adopt a child, however, you must follow a relatively complex legal protocol. Our family attorney will be here to guide and coach you through the process. Our legal consultations may become invaluable as you move forward with your adoption.

Prenuptial Agreements
When you are preparing to get married, you have the option of establishing a prenuptial agreement. This document outlines basic guidelines for how future conflicts should be handled. It also identifies which assets and debts shall be considered marital property and which will be kept separate. Finally, it can also serve as a precursor to an estate plan by identifying whom should inherit certain assets in the event that something unexpected should happen. We can assist you in establishing a sound premarital agreement to protect your interests.

Child Support
Child support issues often last much longer than the divorce itself. The non-custodial parent may be required to pay child support for years after the divorce is finalized. Sometimes, the agreements established years prior during the divorce itself may become outdated as life progresses. We can help you evaluate your child support order and, if necessary, aid you in the process of updating it to reflect your current situation.

Custody Agreements
Just as child support orders can become outdated, so can custody agreements. As children grow, their needs and desires may change. Updating custody agreements is sometimes easier said than done, however, so securing representation from an experienced family attorney is an important first step.
