Understanding Minnesota Family Law
Every state has a unique set of laws, and Minnesota is no different. For example, when it comes to property division during divorce, Minnesota follows guidelines for equitable distribution. If you and your spouse cannot agree to terms of the distribution of your property, a family court judge will decide what is fair for you. The division of property isn’t always a 50-50 split.
When children are involved, the state requires that both parents provide support for their children after separation or divorce. The court has strict guidelines for calculating child support based on both parents’ incomes and the time they each spend with their child. Some exceptions may apply.
To best address the unique circumstances of your situation, I will analyze your case and help you determine the next steps. My knowledge ranges from the initial filing for divorce to the amending of custody agreements to all the areas in between. You may be able to create valid divorce and parenting time agreements through negotiation, but that is not always possible. Sometimes, the most efficient method to safeguard your rights and the best interests of your children is through litigation in court. Regardless of the method that’s best suited for your case, I will be at your side every step of the way. My top priority is doing what is best for my clients.
