We advocate for parenting arrangements that reflect your children’s best interests and protect your parental rights under Minnesota Statutes § 518.17.

Child Support

We calculate and advocate for fair child support in accordance with Minnesota’s child support guidelines.

We advise on whether spousal maintenance applies to your case and fight for fair terms.
