Child custody orders aren’t set in stone
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Monday, April 1, 2019. Illinois residents may be able to have a child custody order modified if events warrant a change being made.

Court rules that children of divorce need both parents
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Friday, June 15, 2018. Missouri couples who are going through divorce proceedings may have special concerns if children are involved. A recent court ruling in Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s marital split has brought to light how courts often look at child custody and visitation.

The number of women paying alimony is rising
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Support on Tuesday, May 29, 2018.

Income and the chances of divorce
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Divorce on Friday, May 18, 2018. There are certain factors that may make Missouri residents more likely to get a divorce.
