Full-Service Family Law Representation In Edina

We provide counsel to parents and children in Edina, across the Twin Cities and throughout Minnesota in all types of divorce and family law matters, including:

Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements

Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements are binding marital contracts established before (prenuptial) or after (postnuptial) marriage. These agreements outline asset division and financial responsibilities upon death or divorce, ensuring protection for both parties.

Paternity Matters

Establishing paternity helps preserve unmarried fathers’ rights and secure a child’s rights to parental support. Paternity can be established by signing a Recognition of Parentage form or a court order amid paternity disputes.

Grandparent Rights and Visitation

In certain circumstances, grandparents can seek visitation rights, particularly when it serves the best interests of the child. Minnesota courts evaluate various factors when determining this, including the grandparent’s prior relationship with the child.

Orders for Protection/Harassment Restraining Orders

Restraining and protective orders are measures that protect individuals from domestic abuse or harassment. Victims can petition the court for these orders to ensure their safety. These orders can include provisions like no-contact directives and temporary custody arrangements.

Post-decree Modifications

These modifications address changes needed after a divorce, such as alterations to child support, custody or spousal maintenance orders. Parties must demonstrate a substantial change in circumstances, such as income changes or living arrangements, to qualify for modifications.

Relocation and Removal From the State

When planning to relocate with the children out of Minnesota, parents must follow procedures to avoid legal problems. The relocating parent must obtain consent from their co-parent or a court order before removing children from the state.

Stepparent Adoption

Stepparents may have the right to adopt a partner’s child, creating a legal parent-child relationship. In Minnesota, this requires the consent of the noncustodial biological parent or the termination of their parental rights.

LGBTQ+ Family Law Matters

Minnesota law protects LGBTQ+ families in matters of divorce, adoption, surrogacy and child custody. Legal representation ensures that the rights and interests of LGBTQ+ families remain safeguarded.

Child Custody

Child custody involves legal (decision-making) and physical (child’s living arrangements) matters. Courts prioritize the child’s interests when determining custody by considering several different factors, such as the child’s age, health, emotional ties and more.

Child Support

Child support is calculated based on both parents’ incomes and the time they spend with the child. Courts use strict guidelines to ensure fair and adequate support for the child.
