Division of Marital Property and Debt
In today's tight economy, a large percentage of our divorce clients are concerned about the division of marital property and debt, particularly what will happen to the family home. Our background in real estate law, combined with our experience in family law, allows us to provide solutions that protect your best interests.

- Division of business or partnership interests
Spousal Maintenance
Spousal maintenance, also known as alimony or spousal support, is one of the more difficult issues in a divorce. We assist clients whose divorces include the possibility of spousal maintenance. For example, in a long marriage where one spouse earns wages and the other stays home to raise children, it may be necessary to allow the stay-at-home parent a chance to build up their earning capacity.
Child Support, Custody and Visitation
In Missouri, child support is calculated using a formula. It is possible to get a variation from the child support formula if applying the formula would be unjust or unreasonable for any reason.
Child custody and visitation plans are called parenting plans in the state of Missouri. Parenting plans establish a child's place of residence and primary guardianship and determine the time that each parent will have with the child.
