Custody & Divorce: Putting Children First

 

Divorce and custody decisions can shape a family for years to come.

At Kim Haney Law Office, the goal is to help clients move through those decisions with clarity, strength, and as little unnecessary conflict as possible.

With nearly three decades of family law experience, Kim Haney provides thoughtful advice, practical strategy, and experienced representation in both negotiated and contested matters.

 

Every family is different, but one principle remains constant: when children are involved, their stability, security, and future should never become an afterthought.

​

Experienced Guidance When Your Family Is Changing

 

Family law is rarely just about what happens in a courtroom.

​

It is about where your children will live. How parenting time will work. Whether they can remain in the same school. How holidays, travel, medical decisions, and important milestones will be handled. It is about homes, finances, property, support, and the practical details of creating two households where there was once one.

 

Those decisions deserve careful thought.

 

Kim works with clients to understand not only the immediate legal problem, but also what life needs to look like after the case is over. The goal is to develop a strategy that protects what matters, resolves what can be resolved, and avoids creating conflict simply for the sake of conflict.

Custody

 

 

Few legal matters feel more personal than decisions involving your children.

 

Custody cases may involve parents who are separating for the first time, families seeking to modify an existing arrangement, relocation, changes in a child's needs, concerns about a parent's circumstances, or disagreements about how children should be raised.

 

Kim Haney Law Office assists clients with matters involving:

​

  • Legal and physical custody

  • Parenting schedules and visitation

  • Custody modifications

  • Relocation

  • Child support

  • School, medical, and extracurricular decisions

  • Holiday and summer schedules

  • Enforcement of existing custody orders

  • Grandparent and extended-family custody issues

  • High-conflict custody matters

  • Negotiated parenting plans

 

The objective is not simply to obtain an order. It is to help create a workable structure that protects the child and gives the family the best opportunity to move forward.

Divorce

 

Divorce is both a legal process and a major life transition.

 

Some divorces can be resolved through careful negotiation and well-drafted agreements.

 

Others require litigation to protect a client's rights. Knowing the difference—and knowing when to negotiate and when to stand firm—matters.

 

Kim Haney Law Office represents clients in divorce matters involving:

  • Uncontested and agreed divorce

  • Contested divorce

  • Property division

  • Marital homes and real estate

  • Retirement and financial accounts

  • Alimony and support

  • Child custody and parenting arrangements

  • Child support

  • Business and financial issues

  • Settlement negotiations

  • Modification and enforcement of prior orders

 

Whenever possible, the focus is on reaching a thoughtful resolution without unnecessary expense or hostility. When litigation is necessary, clients receive experienced representation with a clear understanding of the issues that truly matter.
