Every family has what might be called a “skeleton in the closet.” That doesn’t mean that the whole household needs to be filled with a bunch of old bones, however. When family issues arise (and they do), sometimes trying to navigate the fiery troubles is best left in the hands of the professionals. A lot of families have split up whose homes could have been kept happy (or at least tolerable) if only they had sought counseling. A family law lawyer in Olathe, KS understands how important the institution of family is and wants to do all that is possible to help resolve family conflict.
Family law covers everything from separations and divorce to child custody issues to domestic violence disputes. In Kansas, it is pertinent to understand what the parameters are around these laws. Understanding what certain terminology in a Kansas court for family law means will help you decide what your best options are. Here are just a few of these terms.
* Incompatibility is a term that implies the husband and wife are at such odds with one another that they cannot and will not get along. They do not want to try to resolve any conflicts in the marriage, as they feel it to be hopeless. Such a state is grounds leading to divorce.
* Residency is a term used to determine which parent the child lives with. It does not give that parent any more rights over the child than the other. It is simply a term to establish with whom the child resides.
* Mediation is a term used to try to work out a commodious custody and visitation arrangement between the parents for the benefit of the child(ren).
