Attorney For Contested Or High-Conflict Divorce

When your marriage started out, your first purchase together may have been a small house in the suburbs. As the years passed and your family grew, things started getting more complicated. Before you knew it, there were investment portfolios, a pension or substantial 401(k) retirement account, a vacation property and possibly even part ownership in a business. Now you are considering divorce and protecting your rights and financial interests in the property settlement will be complicated.

Start By Talking To Me, Attorney Kevin Stuart Cavanaugh In Leawood

If a disputed property settlement or significant assets will be part of your divorce, make sure your attorney has experience working in this unique area of the law. I have many years of experience representing clients in high-conflict divorce.

  • Business valuation and shareholder rights

A Lawyer With Strong Experience In Contested Custody Issues

Nothing is more emotional for parents in a divorce than concerns about their children. Some parents forget that nobody “wins” custody. The courts make a decision based on the best interest of the child and both parents are expected to share equal responsibility in raising their children. If you are concerned about a custody battle or visitation rights in your contested divorce, I offer experienced legal counsel and representation to help you resolve complex issues.

I Will Never Push You Into Unnecessary Litigation

It seems that everyone knows someone with a horror story about a divorce that went wrong. In my experience, working toward a settlement is almost always the best solution and certainly what the courts expect the parties to strive for. However, there may be times when taking a case to trial is the only way to protect your rights. If so, I am an experienced, effective litigator with a strong record of successful outcomes on behalf of my clients.
