What factors are considered when calculating child support?

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in child support on Tuesday, August 2, 2016. If you ask just about any parent in Missouri what they think about the child support they pay or receive, you will likely get one of two answers, depending on whether they are the payer or the recipient: way too much or not enough. Parents who are required to comply with an order for child support don’t always see child support strictly as a means of supporting a child, which is why it’s hard to see eye-to-eye.

Missouri parents: Be prepared for upcoming child custody changes

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in child custody on Wednesday, July 27, 2016. Family legal matters can be very difficult to resolve without legal support, particularly because the laws governing them are often changing. Recently, for instance, a law passed in Missouri that changes how judges will be required to approach and resolve child custody cases.

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in child support on Tuesday, July 12, 2016. If you have been ordered to pay child support, it is critical that you take this obligation very seriously. Not only are your contributions essential to the well-being of your child, but they are also enforced by Missouri courts. In the event that you fail to keep up with your payments, you will be held accountable. In many cases, you could face contentious battles with your ex that make co-parenting far more difficult. It this doesn’t happen or if it doesn’t seem so bad,

Don’t lose your rights during child custody procedures

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in child custody on Wednesday, July 6, 2016. When a marriage ends, it can cause everyone in the family to feel stress and anxiety. Adding to the stress is the inescapable fact that parents have important decisions to make at a time when their emotions are running high. Mistakes can be made and indeed they sometimes are. Even worse, many Missouri parents find themselves unable to resolve their custody disputes, leading to litigation.

Celebrate your independence this weekend

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in divorce on Tuesday, June 28, 2016. This weekend, residents across Jackson County will be heading out to barbecues, beaches and cabins to celebrate the Fourth of July weekend. But if you are dealing with divorce, this weekend can be about more than celebrating the country’s independence: It could also be about celebrating your own independence.
