Cohabitation agreements are helpful for unwed couples

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Unmarried Couples on Sunday, June 12, 2016. So you’ve met someone you really like, and things are going extremely well. In fact, the two of you are thinking of taking your relationship to the next level by living together. This is a very common practice. Many couples believe that by foregoing the formality of getting married, they will sidestep certain legal hassles if they should choose to go their separate ways. However, avoiding marriage does not guarantee avoiding legal issues upon splitting up. It is still possible for unmarried couples to end up

Therapists advocate trial separations for troubled couples

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Legal Separation on Friday, June 3, 2016. Marriage is not easy. It involves making compromises, sharing sacrifices and working through differences. And over time, differences can become more pronounced and even develop into resentments. Eventually, spouses may have difficulty communicating civilly, at which point one or both parties may start questioning the wisdom of remaining together. It is not unusual for a married couple to find themselves wondering if they are still compatible. And if their situation becomes overwrought with conflict, they may consider getting a divorce. But is this necessarily

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Military Divorce on Thursday, May 26, 2016. Military life can present families with many challenges.

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Domestic Violence on Sunday, May 22, 2016. Maybe it started with a cruel remark or a loud demand. But over time, things escalated to frequent bouts of physical violence. Dealing with an abusive partner can be extremely frightening and emotionally draining. And the situation can even become life-threatening. It is very easy to feel alone and confused when your partner, a person you have loved, becomes the source of such terror.

Do not be afraid to consider divorce

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Military Divorce on Sunday, May 15, 2016. Divorce has a negative connotation in society, implying that a marriage has failed or that the married couple could not put forth the effort required to make the marriage work. Despite this, divorce is not something that a married couple should avoid simply because of what society says. Here’s the truth: people change, and marriages that were once happy may simply morph into a union that is no long viable for one or both parties involved. This is especially true for people in the

Dog allegedly stolen in property dispute

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Unmarried Couples on Monday, May 9, 2016. When an unmarried couple decides to live together, it can be a very happy moment for the couple and could ultimately bring them closer. However, if the couple eventually splits, the resulting dispute of assets could be extremely problematic. Unless the couple kept detailed records of which assets belonged to whom, the split can devolve into an argument of one person’s word against the other. In extreme circumstances, people may take matters into their own hands. Recently in Oregon, a landlord allegedly gave her tenant less
