Arranging custody during the summer months
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in child custody on Friday, April 6, 2018. With the arrival of spring in Jackson County, parents inevitably look forward to the summertime to plan for when their children will be out of school. As a recently divorced parent, you may be looking forward to your kids’ summer break with extra anticipation this year given that it will allow you to spend more time with them. You may want to include an extended vacation as part of that time, yet would such a venture work with your custody schedule? We here at
Modifying a child support obligation
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in child support on Friday, March 23, 2018. When divorce divides a family in Jackson County, almost everything changes. Perhaps the one thing that does not is the love and affection the parents feel for their kids (and, by extension, the desire they have to care for them). It is for this exact reason why child support is such a pressing issue when it comes to divorce. Per the U.S. Census Bureau, over $33.7 billion was owed in child support as recently as 2015. In a perfect world, those who owe such
Child custody and unfit parents
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in child custody on Thursday, February 22, 2018. Child custody is a common point of contention between separating Missouri parents. Although one parent may deem the other unfit for child custody, courts generally prioritize the child’s best interest by looking at the entire picture: a parent’s financial situation and mental stability are often points of focus. However, when a parent has lost child custody in the past, or has inflicted abuse toward a child, legal action may be the next step. In the unfortunate recent case of Savannah Leckie, an Ozark County
Paternity testing and the steps at hand
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in child support on Wednesday, February 7, 2018. No matter the situation, determining child custody can invite a world of stress for Missouri parents. After the obstacles of separation fade to the background, the court’s decisions on parenting arrangements can create entirely new challenges. When there is uncertainty surrounding the identity of a child’s biological father altogether, this stress can seem magnified. Speaking with a Lee’s Summit, Missouri paternity lawyer can help you know your rights. Missouri law, like other states, requires that all parties agree to legal DNA testing, but does
Do I have to pay my ex-spouse’s student loans?
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in divorce on Wednesday, January 31, 2018. If you are one of the many people in Missouri who is facing the end of your marriage this year, you are no doubt concerned about the financial ramifications you may experience from a divorce. Many people focus on the division of assets when they first think of a property division settlement. While splitting assets is definitely a component of this, it is debts also that must be divided between spouses. As Forbes explains, student loan debt may be one type of debt that ends
QDROs and divorce decrees
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in divorce on Tuesday, January 23, 2018. Divorcing spouses in Missouri can find many elements of getting divorced difficult to accept, including the financial blow that can accompany a divorce. Losing significant assets is never easy but when it comes time to split a 401K or another type of retirement plan sponsored by an employer, there may well be a way for people to minimize what they have to let go of. It is often believed that a divorce decree is the one document in which the parameters of any property division
