10 family law attorneys serve Topeka and the surrounding area. Their work covers custody and parenting time, child and spousal support, paternity, guardianship, adoption, prenuptial agreements and enforcement of existing orders.
Most family matters settle, and the attorneys who settle them well are usually the ones who narrow the dispute early. Ask each firm how it approaches mediation, and how it handles high-conflict cases when mediation fails.
Family work is normally billed hourly against a retainer. Ask for the rate, the retainer and what happens when it is exhausted before you sign anything.
