Domestic violence is widespread

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Domestic Violence on Monday, December 2, 2013. Domestic violence appears to also have affected individuals from all ages as victims in one Missouri shelter were anywhere from 14 to 70-years in age.  While women go to this shelter to escape an abusive situation, part of the funding for this shelter comes from a fashion show that is put on.  The event helped raise $43,000 for the shelter. According to one source, Missouri police officers were forced to respond to 41,494 reports of domestic violence during the past year.   A federal government

Divorce And The Holidays: It’s Nothing To Sing About

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Divorce on Tuesday, November 26, 2013. By Judy Berkowitz, Executive Director, Kids In The Middle Tammy Wynette sang about it. Gossip magazines revel in it. Even dating sites capitalize on it. Yet the family unit is the one that suffers the most from it. The “D” word: Divorce. While divorce itself is devastating, the holidays make the pain even more pronounced…whether it’s a freshly inked separation or a long ago occurrence. The plain fact is that the holiday season can be a cruel reminder to parents and children of what once

Collaborative divorce a perfect option for some Missouri couples

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Family Law on Monday, September 16, 2013. As many Missouri couples know, sometimes a marriage does not work out. People grow apart; get sick of the bickering, or for whatever reasons just do not see their spouse as “the one” anymore. In many cases, both people still get along well enough, their marriage is just no longer fulfilling. For many of these spouses — the ones who can imagine coming to some sort of an agreement without battling it out in court — a collaborative divorce is more appealing than a

Tips for separated parents and back-to-school night

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Unmarried Couples on Tuesday, September 10, 2013. For parents in Missouri who were never married — or those who are divorced — back-to-school night with an ex can be hard. For some, going separately and having the entire event split between the two parents may even seem like the best way to go about getting through the event with minimal to no contact with an ex. However, attending back-to-school night separately may end up adding more stress to a child’s life. One mother recently shared her experience. Her viewpoint is that

Separation: A time to reevaluate a Missouri marriage

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Legal Separation on Wednesday, September 4, 2013. While there is no separation requirement for divorce in Missouri, some couples still chose to enter into separation agreements. These agreements can address everything from child custody to property division and can have serious implications if there is a divorce filing later on down the road. Of course though, some couples in Missouri also decide to separate with no agreements in place. Rather, each spouse just takes the time to think about the marriage and decide what it is each want out of the

Divorce financial planning can help reduce financial worries

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Family Law on Wednesday, August 28, 2013. There are plenty of concerns when it comes to getting divorced in Missouri. Especially for the spouse who was not in charge of the couple’s bills or budgeting, understanding what a couple has, what each spouse is entitled to, and what the future will look like from a financial standpoint can be frightening. Luckily though, a spouse who did not play a role in a couple’s finances can take a lot of the stress off the divorce by simply taking the time to learn
