Our Family Law Services
- Adoption: Adopting a child is a life-changing process, but it can also be legally complex and challenging. Our skilled attorneys can guide you through every step—from meeting Oklahoma's adoption requirements to obtaining court approval.
- Alimony: In Oklahoma, spousal support is awarded as needed, not automatically. One party must have a need for spousal support and the other must have the ability to pay spousal support. Because there is no fixed formula for calculating alimony, you’ll need an attorney to help you negotiate fair terms. We assist in establishing, modifying, and enforcing spousal support orders in Oklahoma.
- Child Custody and Visitation: Determining child custody and visitation requires careful attention to the child’s best interests. We work to craft favorable arrangements that prioritize your child's well-being while protecting your parental rights. We handle complex custody cases and help clients maintain stable, loving relationships with their children.
- Child Support: Child support calculations in Oklahoma consider both parents’ adjusted gross income (AGI), parenting time / custody, and the child's needs. Whether you're establishing, modifying, or enforcing child support, our goal is to help your child get the care they deserve.
- Contempt and Enforcement of Judgments: When a party fails to comply with court orders related to family law matters like child support or custody, our attorneys are here to help. We take decisive legal action to enforce judgments, protect your rights, and ensure compliance with the law.
- Divorce: Our attorneys work to secure fair resolutions for asset division, spousal support, and child-related matters that must be resolved in divorce.
- Emancipation: For minors seeking independence, emancipation can be a difficult but empowering process. We assist minors in demonstrating their readiness for self-support, allowing them to successfully navigate Oklahoma's legal requirements for emancipation.
- Guardianships: Guardianship arrangements provide care for minors or vulnerable adults unable to manage their affairs. Our attorneys help establish guardianship, ensuring decisions about personal care, financial matters, and healthcare align with the needs of the individual under your care.
- Marital Property: Dividing marital property during a separation or divorce can lead to disputes. We provide clear guidance on Oklahoma’s property laws, helping couples define ownership or reach fair agreements. With our support, you’ll understand your rights and secure peace of mind.
- Modifications of Custody, Visitation, and Child Support Orders: When life changes, your existing family court orders may need to change as well. Our attorneys help you petition for modifications, ensuring court orders adapt to your evolving circumstances and continue to serve your family's best interests.
- Paternity: We assist with all aspects of paternity cases, from determining parentage to pursuing parental rights and obligations. Whether you're seeking to establish who the father of a child is or need help securing child support, we provide legally sound solutions.
- Prenuptial and Antenuptial Agreements: Our attorneys draft prenuptial and antenuptial agreements that protect your assets and clarify property and financial arrangements.
- Relocations: TRelocation cases require addressing both the child’s and parent’s best interests. We help custodial parents seek court permission to relocate and support non-custodial parents in opposing relocations that could jeopardize the relationship with their child.
- Termination of Parental Rights: Terminating parental rights is a legal matter reserved for rare cases involving neglect, abuse, or criminal concerns. Our attorneys provide strong representation for parents navigating this sensitive process, ensuring the situation is handled in compliance with Oklahoma laws.
- Uncontested Agreed Divorce: An uncontested divorce can save time and money. We facilitate these divorces by helping both parties reach mutual agreements on key issues, thus avoiding prolonged legal battles and stress.
- Military Divorces: Military divorces involve unique legal challenges, particularly regarding deployment, relocation, and benefits division. Our attorneys bring knowledge and experience to these cases, offering tailored guidance to service members and their families.
