Family Law Cases We Handle
If you are dealing with any of the following facets of family law, don’t worry. As family lawyers in Minnesota, we have a wealth of experience in providing solutions to all of them and more, all while making sure we are always taking extra care with these delicate matters.
Divorce
Dissolution of marriage can be complex, especially when a divorce involves the ownership of assets or involves a request for spousal maintenance (alimony). Often, parties attempt to proceed without an attorney. Doing so can result in unintended personal and financial hardships now and in the future. You need the services of an experienced family law attorney in every divorce to ensure your rights are protected.
Child Custody And Parenting Time
The care and custody of children is the most important issue in family law. It can also be the most contentious. An experienced family law attorney is necessary to support and guide you from the beginning of your case to the end.
Child Support
Support of minor children is mandatory in Minnesota. While the statutes lay out a guideline for support amounts, there are many factors that must be considered in establishing or modifying support. Messick law has extensive experience in the establishment and modification of support orders.
Adoption
Adopting a child is one of the bravest and most selfless things a person can do, but it is a very technical process. Messick Law, PLLC can help make this process easier by guiding you through each step of the way.
