Why do women initiate divorce more often than men?

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Divorce on Thursday, August 27, 2015. There was a time when married men were generally the breadwinners of the household, while their wives stayed home and handled domestic duties. That is not the case in today’s society, as many married women have full-time jobs, and there are perhaps more stay-at-home dads today than ever before. According to a study recently presented at the annual gathering of the American Sociological Association, these relatively recent social developments have led to heightened expectations among married women, and these heightened expectations likely contribute to the fact that women initiate

Do a child’s best interests and father’s rights go hand in hand?

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Wednesday, August 19, 2015. As frequent visitors to our blog know, we often like to talk about Missouri law and how it affects residents here in St. Louis County and across Missouri. In a post back in February last year, we talked about the push across the nation for joint custody arrangements, which oftentimes provide a middle ground between fathers’ rights advocates and a child’s best interests. In the post, we left it up to our readers to decide whether they thought the same way. In today’s post though, we’d like to continue our

Respecting the privacy rights of parents who pay child support

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Support on Sunday, August 16, 2015. We have previously written that child support is among the more “loaded” topics in family law. Regardless of whether they pay or receive child support, nearly everyone involved has an opinion. And for the parents on the paying end – often fathers but not always – reminders to pay child support can feel like a moral judgment. No one wants to be thought of as a “deadbeat.” Missouri has a Division of Child Support Enforcement to ensure that non-custodial parents are making court-ordered payments. Most other states also have

Your divorce doesn’t have to be a public event

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Divorce on Saturday, August 8, 2015. Most of us don’t experience the social inconveniences that celebrities do. You probably don’t have to look completely “put together” to grab a cup of coffee in the morning, nor do you worry that going shopping with your kids will turn into an unwanted photo shoot. Most of us don’t have these problems because most of us aren’t famous. But there is at least one situation in which celebrities and average people share similar worries about privacy invasions. If you’re going through a divorce or other family law dispute, you may

Letting go of anger in order to make smarter divorce decisions

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Divorce on Wednesday, August 5, 2015. A couple weeks ago, we discussed the potential fallout from the recent hack of the Ashley Madison website. The site’s purpose is summed up in its slogan: “Life is short, have an affair.” There are apparently millions of people who took that advice, and the personal data of more than 37 million users was stolen by hackers. As we mentioned in our last post on the subject, proof of infidelity likely won’t provide the “upper hand” in divorce that many heartbroken spouses assume that it will. And as we’ll reiterate

Family law study: the link between marriage age and divorce risk

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Divorce on Monday, July 27, 2015. There is no shortage of sociological studies these days, and studies about relationships and families seem to be more numerous than others – at least in terms of media coverage. Perhaps this is because they address relatable topics that most of us are interested in. That being said, studies about relationships, marriage and divorce should be understood in context. Specifically, readers should know that these studies can only analyze trends. They cannot predict the likelihood of marital success or failure for any one couple. A recent study attempted to show a correlation between
