Services Offered
Divorce

Stepparent Adoption
Paternity/Child Custody
Stepparent Adoption
Our law firm handles many adoption cases in the Kansas City, Missouri area. Stepparent adoption is when an individual adopts his or her spouse’s biological child, and the parental rights of the noncustodial parent are terminated. The custodial parent, along with the child if he or she is old enough, will need to formally consent to the adoption, and the process will be completed in court.
Paternity/Child Custody
Paternity/Child Custody
Modification of Judgment
Actions for paternity are increasingly more common in today’s society, and they are a very important tool for unmarried parents, particularly fathers. Without marriage or a judicial declaration of paternity, a father’s parental rights are just short of non-existent. Not only will the action formally recognize a father’s relationship to a child, but the action are typically combined with actions for custody and child support.
Modification of Judgment
Probate and Estate Planning
Modification of Judgment
After the entry of a decree of dissolution of marriage (divorce), a custody order, or child support order, the need may arise for certain terms of those orders to be modified by the court. One party can ask the court to change the order, or the parties can enter into an agreement to modify. In Missouri, child custody, child support and spousal support orders can be modified if the Court is presented with proper evidence.

Prenuptial/Postnuptial Agreements
Prenuptial/Postnuptial Agreements
Prenuptial/Postnuptial Agreements
A prenuptial agreement is a contract prepared by an attorney and entered into by two people before their marriage. Contrary to popular opinion, prenups are not only for the rich. They are a great way to avoid arguments in case of divorce, by specifying in advance how property will be divided.
Contempt/Enforcement
Prenuptial/Postnuptial Agreements
Prenuptial/Postnuptial Agreements
Your divorce or support order can't help you if your former partner isnt complying. Failure of a party to comply with an order of the court can severe consequences, and the party wishing to enforce a decree has various methods in which to do so. Judgments for child support and maintenance are money judgments, and can be enforced through levy on property and garnishment of wages and bank accounts.
