Any legal issue involving the family is going to be stressful. You need a family law and divorce lawyer who will treat you with compassion while working hard to get you what you need. You need a team that will take your legal burdens off you and help in any way they can. Family Law issues can be complex, emotionally charged, and as a result, it is essential to have a comfortable relationship with an attorney you trust. The Attorneys at Clay, Kline & Faurot are dedicated to providing services in a compassionate and cost-efficient manner tailored to your individual needs.

At Clay, Kline & Faurot, Attorneys at Law, our family law and divorce lawyers believe firmly in giving plenty of attention and care to every client. Lorri Kline and Melissa Faurot combine for more than 17 years of experience helping the people of central Missouri with a wide range of family law issues.
Your divorce is unique. Each situation requires a meticulous attention to detail so that no element is left unaddressed. You may face a variety of family law issues such as child custody determination, visitation rights/parenting time, paternity, spousal maintenance/alimony, property and debt division, and court order modifications. The goal of the legal process of divorce is to end the marriage and decide such issues as child custody, visitation, child support, alimony (sometimes called spousal support), property and debt division and attorney’s fees and costs. We will work toward a satisfactory agreement through negotiation and mediation; however, if an agreement is not realistic, we are ready to represent you in court. We are skilled and confident lawyers who will work to protect your interests and achieve your goals.
Family Law:
*Divorce (a.k.a. Dissolution)
*Legal separation
*Child support
*Child custody and visitation
*Modification of child support, custody, visitation
*Premarital agreements
*Cohabitation and domestic partnership documents
*Paternity
*Adoption

In Missouri, divorces can be contested or uncontested. Uncontested divorces can be faster, cheaper, and easier, but keep in mind that both spouses must agree to every aspect of the divorce. We can also use alternative dispute resolution techniques, such as mediation, instead of going to court; these techniques tend to make divorce or family law disputes less expensive and less stressful.
Especially in cases of divorce, our attorneys understand the need to get matters resolved as quickly and painlessly as possible. However, unlike many large law firms, we never try to cycle through as many cases as possible – Ms. Kline and Ms. Faurot give each case the attention it needs and deserves.
