Family Law

Kansas Family Law Attorney

Serving Overland Park and the Kansas City metro area

You can protect your interest and that of your family in divorce without fighting it out in court. As an experienced negotiator and certified mediator, I have helped families arrange mutually agreeable solutions since 1979. I am also a Christian lawyer who practices law in a spirit of conciliation. If you need legal advice in a Kansas family law matter, call or e-mail my Overland Park law office.

Family law mediation

Out-of-court resolutions and mediated agreements tend to be less expensive. They can also reduce the hostility and stress between the parties. When both sides come to the table willing to work out a divorce, custody, or support agreement, the results tend to be more satisfying to everyone concerned.

At the Jeffers Law Office I represent husbands, wives, mother, and fathers in mediation efforts and contentious family law litigation. I handle Kansas family law matters including:

• Divorce - uncontested filings, contested divorce litigation, property settlement agreements, legal separation, annulments, and execution of prenuptial agreements
• Child Custody - In negotiating child custody arrangements and determining the level of child support, I strive to balance my clients’ wishes with the best interests of the children. When children’s needs are put first, parents are more open to fair compromise.
• Child Support and Spousal Support / Alimony
• Paternity and Visitation - helping mothers establish paternity in child support matters; and representing fathers who want to assert their rights to visitation or shared custody; also assisting unmarried couples, grandparents, and stepparents seeking effective visitation agreements
• Modifications - court ordered changes to divorce, custody, and support agreements;responding to significant changes in circumstances including parental relocation, change of income, needs of children, illegal activities or misconduct of a parent
• Adoption - representing stepparents, grandparents, and other family members who want to formally adopt a child who has been in their care; assisting adoptive parents in agency adoptions
• Guardianship and Conservatorship - helping family members and friends entrusted with the care of a minor child or an adult with special needs; legal guardianship to make personal decisions and conservatorships to provide financially for the child or vulnerable adult
