You want an attorney who knows the law, and who will help you understand your options, so that you can make informed decisions. You also want a lawyer who will stand up for your rights, so that you get the results you need.

- Child support. We will review all proposed child support agreements to ensure that they are in compliance with Kansas or Missouri guidelines. We will also verify that all appropriate sources of income, including self-employment, seasonal and commission-based income, are properly considered.
- Spousal support or alimony. Our attorneys will help you determine whether a grant of alimony is warranted and, if so, how much should be paid and for low long.
- Property settlements. We will help you come to an agreement on the distribution of the debts and assets of the marriage, including real estate, investments and bank accounts, retirement funds and business property.
- Modification and enforcement proceedings. If your divorce in final, but your circumstances have changed dramatically, we will help you modify the custody, visitation or support order. If your ex-spouse is not meeting the terms the original divorce decree, we can help you use the power of the court to enforce the order.
