What does a separation agreement look like?
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Legal Separation on Tuesday, December 9, 2014. Even though it is fairly simple in theory, legal separation may be a bizarre and confusing concept to some.

Of course each couples issues are different, and it is impossible to say why a couple may choose
Domestic partnerships could still cause property disputes
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Unmarried Couples on Monday, December 1, 2014. Unmarried couples who live together can easily run into some trouble if things do not work out.

How do you divide property as an unmarried couple?
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Unmarried Couples on Tuesday, November 11, 2014. For some couples, marriage is the heart of their relationship, cementing their love for one another. However, for many others, it is simply an expensive ceremony with too many strings attached. For others in some states, couples who would love to marry are not permitted to under law. However, married or not, relationships do not always work out. But what happens when a long-term unmarried couple go their separate ways? How do they decide who gets what? Often at the center of property disputes
What are Missouri’s views on same-sex marriage?
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Family Law on Monday, November 3, 2014. Same sex marriage is gaining popularity across the country. Some states have legalized it, and many other states have cases in the courts that are trying to challenge the bans on same-sex marriage.
