KRG Law Family Services Include
Divorce
Navigating a divorce can be challenging. At KRG Law, we provide compassionate support and rigorous advocacy to help you achieve fair resolutions in matters of asset valuation and division, allocation of community debt, child support, spousal maintenance (alimony), child custody and more. Whether through mediation or litigation, we are here to protect your and your family's interests and guide you toward a new beginning.
Legal Separation
Sometimes, legal separation is a more suitable option than divorce. Our team assists in formalizing separation agreements that address financial arrangements, child custody, and other pertinent issues, ensuring you maintain legal protections without fully dissolving the marriage.
Child Custody
Child custody decisions are pivotal. KRG Law prioritizes the well-being of your children in negotiating custody/visitation rights, all while keeping you informed of the financial implications in terms of child support. We aim to create parenting plans that foster a stable, loving environment for your children, while also respecting your rights and wishes.
Paternity
Establishing paternity can be crucial for various legal entitlements and responsibilities, including custody, visitation, and support. Our firm handles paternity cases with sensitivity and confidentiality, ensuring the best interests of both the child and the parents are served.
Child Support
Child support is essential to your child's welfare. We help ensure that support agreements are fair, equitable, and sufficient to cover the needs of your children. Whether you are seeking to establish, modify, or enforce a child support order, KRG Law is committed to achieving the best possible outcomes for your family.
Prenuptial Agreement
Drafting and reviewing prenuptial and postnuptial agreements to protect your assets and clarify property division terms, ensuring peace of mind and financial security for both parties.
Spousal Maintenance (Alimony)
Spousal maintenance is designed to provide financial stability post-divorce. Our attorneys work diligently to secure fair spousal support arrangements, whether you are seeking support or required to provide it. We are adept at navigating the complexities of spousal maintenance to ensure a fair outcome.
Collaborative Divorce
Collaborative divorce is a legal process that allows spouses to negotiate a divorce agreement with the help of professionals, instead of going to court. It's often used when spouses are not on bad terms and agree to settle disputes out of court. The goal is to reach a mutually beneficial outcome while reducing stress and minimizing costs.

What our Clients Say
Ms. Gillard advised me on modifying my parenting plan. I've been divorced over ten years and hadn't updated it since. She helped me consider parenting matters I never would've thought of on my own. She took the stress out of the process and was great to work with!
I hired Katherine for decree enforcement and modifications. She is very prompt with her responses, quickly available, and professional to both parties. She helped steer me in the right direction to get resolution on our issues. So far I am very happy with her work and plan on keeping her on retainer.
Absolute excellent information and professionalism. This attorney got back immediately and was able to start literally within the hour and was able to dial a plan that made sense and was highly affordable and I would highly recommend her.
