Supporting You Through Your Divorce Proceedings
During your initial consultation, we will discuss the facts of your case with you, determine how the law applies to your specific situation and analyze the options before you. If there are any questions as to what law applies (jurisdictional issues), such as child custody, we will talk about how they affect your situation and how we can deal with them.
We provide family law services to clients in Missouri and outside the state. We can provide assistance with:
- Separation
- Premarital agreements
- Paternity
- Child custody and support
- Parenting time, or visitation
- Spousal maintenance, or alimony
Once we have filed the initial petition for your divorce, we will work to settle the case as soon as possible to save you both time and legal expenses. While some cases can be negotiated outside of court, we are always ready to go to trial if necessary.
Our attorney, James R. Sharp, is also a trained and certified mediator. He can mediate your family law dispute; he also brings his mediation and negotiation skills to our divorce clients.
Whether you are seeking family law mediation, negotiation or litigation — we can help. Contact our Springfield office by calling 866-484-1124. You may also reach us online.
Additional Concerns In Family Law Cases
Family law cases are complicated and there are many different areas that overlap with divorce. In addition to the divorce-related services listed above, we also provide legal support in situations involving:
- Orders for protection. We can help you apply for, or defend against, an order for protection (OFP). OFPs are used to protect parties in cases where there are suspicions of, allegations of, or actual adult or child abuse.
- Guardianship.
- Juvenile law. We represent parents whose children have been removed for allegations of abuse or neglect by the Children's Division.
- Modification of existing orders. If an order for spousal maintenance or child support no longer addresses current need or available resources, we can work with you to modify it through the court.
