Missouri children taken away after girlfriend runs down boyfriend
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Domestic Violence on Tuesday, July 30, 2013. Having a child taken away due to accusations of abuse or neglect is any parent’s worst nightmare. Fathers may be left feeling like there is nothing that can be done. However, depending on the accusations, there may be options. An example of a child being taken away from a father stems from a recent alleged domestic incident in Foley, Missouri. In this case, a girlfriend is accused of hitting a child before trying to run down her boyfriend in a car. After the incident,
Study: Unmarried, cohabitating couples not as committed
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Unmarried Couples on Tuesday, July 23, 2013. There are many couples in Missouri who are unmarried and living together. Some of these couples have children together, while some are childless. Some of these couples are engaged, or planning on getting married one day, while others never plan on getting married.

Domestic violence accusation leads to job resignation
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Domestic Violence on Monday, July 1, 2013. Recently, a high school hockey coach resigned after a complaint was made to the district about previously being investigated for domestic abuse. The coach ended up resigning just based on the complaint being filed with the district, as he was never convicted on any charges related to domestic violence. The fact that the coach resigned due to a previous accusation regarding domestic violence speaks to not only the importance of more people viewing domestic abuse as a community problem, but also just how much
Think ahead when creating a prenuptial agreement
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Family Law on Monday, June 24, 2013. A good prenuptial agreement contains detailed information pertaining to significant assets and debts. The best agreements are also those that cover all types of possible situations, from spouses becoming involved in each other’s businesses to one spouse staying home to take care of children.
