Some Missouri counties struggle with same sex marriage
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Family Law on Wednesday, July 22, 2015. Thanks to a landmark decision by the Supreme Court, same-sex couples can now legally be married in every state in the country. This means there is an entirely new demographic of people who will need legal assistance with family law matters, such as prenuptial agreements, adoption or even divorce. The ability to marry comes with many other issues that same-sex couples will need to address. Of course, there are some counties in which that is still not the primary concern of same-sex couples. There
Understanding the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Military Divorce on Friday, July 17, 2015. Divorce is an extremely complex legal matter, and when one spouse is in the military, it becomes even more complex. This is not only because of the nature of military life, such as constant relocation or deployment, but also because of specific laws and regulations that effect the nature of divorce across the country and in specific states like Missouri. Each of these laws affect a divorce in a specific way, and understanding them can be crucial to you divorce case. One such law
Do I have to have a reason to divorce my spouse?
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Legal Separation on Thursday, July 9, 2015. As with many aspects of family law, each state treats particular issues differently. When it comes to divorce, Missouri is a no-fault state, which means that divorces are often granted even if neither spouse is determined to be at fault of any marital offense such as adultery or abandonment/negligence. Additionally, there is no separation requirement couples must meet before filing for divorce. However, there are always multiple circumstances that could affect any given case, and divorce is no different. While any member of a
Explaining asset division for unmarried couples
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Unmarried Couples on Friday, June 26, 2015. It is one of the most dreadful things about any kind of separation in which couples lived together, whether the separation is divorce or simply breaking up: asset division. There are some couples who attempt to resolve their disputes and stay in a relationship simply because they do not want to have to deal with the hassles of splitting and potentially losing some of their assets. This is inadvisable, because an unhealthy relationship benefits nobody, and assets can be handled legally. When you are
Nearly half of domestic violence cases are unassisted
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Domestic Violence on Friday, June 19, 2015. We often talk about how serious Missouri treats domestic violence, and we recently reported on a state congressman who is taking steps to increase resources devoted to reducing domestic violence and assisting victims. New statistics indicate that this help cannot come quickly enough, as many shelters are struggling to provide the necessary assistance for domestic violence victims. Whether it is employees being released or lack of funding, the fact is that many individuals are unable to receive the help they need. Across the entire
Understanding legal separation
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Legal Separation on Friday, June 12, 2015. The primary difference between legal separation and divorce is that a couple is still technically married, even if they are legally separated, whereas in a divorce, the marriage is ended. This is a particularly crucial distinction to make if a couple is unsure that they truly want their marriage to be ended, but they still wish to have many issue commonly covered by divorce to be mandated by the courts. There are many reasons that someone may wish to separate without officially divorcing, from
