Many children born to unmarried couples in recent years

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Unmarried Couples on Thursday, June 26, 2014. For some couples, marriage is an important next step in their relationship. For others, it is also a religious matter or even a matter of propriety. More and more, however, couples are deciding against going down the marriage road. For some, it is a matter of legality, as same-sex marriages are not available in every state. Others simply don’t feel that marriage is for them. Whatever the case, unmarried couples are not uncommon in Missouri. For some couples it is a matter of finance.

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Family Law on Thursday, June 19, 2014. Family law is a multifaceted legal area that covers topics ranging from marriage and divorce to domestic abuse and property disputes. One of the most important topics is family law’s role in determining the upbringing of children.

Domestic violence runs rampant in Audrain County

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Domestic Violence on Thursday, June 5, 2014. Missouri residents may be surprised to learn that the statewide average of domestic violence according to statistics released for 2012 from the Highway Patrol indicates that for every 100,000 residents, there are 686 domestic violence incidents.

Unfortunately, not all relationships work out, and couples who once lived together happily might end up splitting, sometimes even violently.

Ohio case shows how the law can change

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Military Divorce on Thursday, May 22, 2014. A most important aspect to remember about the law is that it is never set in stone. The law may dictate how the legal process handles topics ranging from divorce to burglary to copyrights, but these laws must be interpreted, and that interpretation can change.
