Idaho Family Law Overview
Aggressive With Opponents. Compassionate With Clients.
There is no substitute for experience and, in the field of family law, this is doubly true. Only experience can impart needed knowledge regarding court processes, legal options and the most-considered factors in family law disputes. Additionally, experience brings needed negotiation and trial skills.
At the Boise law firm of Miller & Harr, PLLC, our attorney team has handled hundreds of cases in each primary area of family law, including:
- Divorce. As experienced civil litigators, we will prepare your divorce dispute for trial and will fight for your rights in court. Although you should always strive to resolve divorce action in a far and reasonable manner, the will often not be possible if you are not prepared to go to trial with an unreasonable opponent.
- Child Custody and Visitation. We work both with divorcing couples and with parents involved in paternity disputes. There is no area of the law where experience is more important.
- Child Support. We can work within Idaho's strict child support guidelines and promote your rights in light of questions regarding parties' true incomes and other variables.
- Alimony. Alimony laws in Idaho — called "spousal maintenance" in Idaho help spouses obtain the vocational guidance, tuition funds and cost-of-living compensation needed to enter the workforce and provide for transition to financial independence many divorcing people need.
- Modifications and Contempt. We can work to modify or enforce court decrees pertaining to child support, spousal support, child custody and visitation. At Miller & Harr our focus when helping to enforce an order is on speed and efficiency.
- Premarital and Postnuptial Agreements. Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements can be used to protect property acquired before a marriage, can be used to set aside funds for your children and can be used to lay out the process to be followed in the event the marriage ends.
- Asset Division. This can include the division of 401(k) accounts, military retirement accounts, IRAs, bank accounts, real estate, inheritance property, gifts, and businesses, including family-owned businesses.
