- DivorceJurisdiction and other issues for divorce are subject to state law. When a spouse is in the military, stationed stateside or abroad, federal and state laws are a factor in divorce. That makes a military divorce more complicated.

- Premarital AgreementFalling in love, getting engaged, and marrying your sweetheart is a beautiful experience. However, it requires extra effort to stay in love. The hard truth is that – not every relationship lasts forever. For this reason, you can protect your best interests and prepare for future uncertainties by drafting a prenuptial agreement. If you are considering a premarital agreement with your engaged partner, you need to speak with our experienced Kansas family law attorneys for proper guidance.
- Spousal SupportDecades ago, most divorce settlements included alimony. As time passed, alimony became less common, as many marriages featured a two-income household and a no-fault divorce. With every 2.3 people out of every 1,000 inhabitants in Kansas getting divorced, alimony may or may not be a part of your divorce settlement.
- Legal SeparationKansas recognizes two grounds for divorce and legal separation. The first is the failure of a spouse to uphold marital duties such as engaging in sexual relations with the other spouse and exercising fidelity with your spouse. The second is incompatibility due to a mental illness or lack of mental capacity. The second can only be pursued if a spouse has spent at least two years, not necessarily continuously, in a mental institution or a court has ruled a spouse to be mentally incapacitated or to suffer from a mental illness.

- Wrongful DeathUnderstandably, it can feel futile seeking compensation for a wrongful death since nothing will bring your loved one back. However, seeking closure and legal action against the party responsible can hold them accountable and ensure this kind of thing doesn’t happen to other families. Additionally, the expenses you’ll incur not only due to the lost income of a spouse or parent, but also funeral and burial expenses and time off work, can add up quickly, and you deserve to be compensated for your loss. Addressing these financial difficulties will not solve your problem completely, but it can relieve stress and allow you and your family time to grieve.
