Plano Family Law Attorney Years of Experience
Over the past 18 years, we have discovered that resolving disputes through amicable measures usually serves the best interest of both parties. The process is easier on the children and usually results in a better post-divorce relationship, which is especially important when you have children.
When a cordial resolution is desired, clients benefit from our skill with negotiation and mediation. We strive to resolve disputes with as little strain as possible. However, when a workable solution is not possible, we are prepared to proceed into divorce litigation.
At the Law Office of Chris Schmiedeke, PC, we offer a full range of family law issues that arise from a divorce, such as:
- Property division — We handle the complex division of marital assets and debts. In addition, when devising divorce settlement agreements, we revisit prenuptial agreements.
- Spousal support/alimony —We help clients present compelling evidence to support the need for or contest the need for spousal support. Temporary orders for support may be established while one parent reenters the workforce.
- Child custody and visitation — We help couples negotiate child custody and visitation arrangements to serve the best interests of the children. In addition, we revisit court orders or agreements and facilitate child custody modifications.
- Child support —We help clients establish child support to appropriately reflect the child custody arrangement. In addition, we handle paternity actions when necessary to establish support and handle child support modifications when future changes arise.
- Abuse — Frequently with divorce petitions feelings of animosity arise. With these emotions, accusations may come out regarding spousal abuse or child abuse. We handle temporary orders of protection and other domestic violence matters.
We also offer legal services focused on uncontested divorces for couples who agree to the terms of their divorce. Family law attorney Schmiedeke offers a full range of services from collaborative law to uncontested e-divorces. He works closely with clients to help them determine the method of resolution that will be most effective based on the unique circumstances of every divorce.
Offering Post-Divorce Decree Services
Our law firm advocates for clients looking to relocate or modify child custody and support orders in their child's best interests. We also aggressively advocate for divorce orders to be enforced when one parent fails to provide timely child support payments or oversteps his or her visitation rights.
At the Law Office of Chris Schmiedeke, PC, we are also committed to helping divorced parents build new families through adoption. We offer more than 18 years of experience handling stepparent adoptions as well as grandparent and inter-family adoptions.
