Benefit from the Legal Knowledge of Experienced Divorce Attorneys

At HKK Law Offices, we understand that no two divorces are the same. That’s why we offer thoughtful, strategic representation for all types of divorce cases including contested, uncontested, collaborative, and high-net-worth divorces. With years of experience guiding individuals and families through complex transitions, our legal team is prepared to protect your interests and help you move forward with confidence.

The end of a marriage can be one of the most emotionally overwhelming and life-altering experiences you’ll face. During this time, having an experienced divorce attorney by your side can make all the difference – not just in the outcome of your case, but in your peace of mind throughout the process.

Some may believe that hiring a lawyer isn’t necessary in divorce proceedings, especially in more amicable situations. But the reality is: family court judges cannot offer legal advice or advocate on your behalf. Without skilled representation, you may unknowingly agree to terms that are unfair or miss opportunities to protect what matters most: your time with your children, your financial security, and your future.

When the other party has legal representation, it’s even more critical that you’re not left at a disadvantage.

Schedule your complimentary consultation today to learn how HKK Law Offices can help you navigate the divorce process with clarity, dignity, and strength.

How Family Law Attorneys Can Help You Through a Child Custody Battle

There are several different legal terms to familiarize yourself with when it comes to child custody cases. Legal custody, physical placement, joint custody, and sole custody are all essential factors that must be determined in a Wisconsin child custody case. Family law judges must weigh several factors and act in what they believe to be the children’s best interests when determining custody and placement.

In many child custody cases, the parents will attempt to collaborate through the mediation process. However, mediation may not be appropriate in all cases, and even when mediation is attempted, it does not mean that it will always prove to be successful. If mediation fails, the court will appoint a guardian ad litem to represent the best interests of the children and weigh the recommendations of the guardian ad litem when rendering their final decisions.

If you are a parent going through a child custody dispute, you must retain professional legal counsel to help you through the process. We can provide valuable legal guidance and remind you of your rights and responsibilities throughout the process as we attempt to secure the most satisfactory resolution to your child custody case possible.

Do You Need Legal Assistance Negotiating for a Fair Resolution to Your Child Support Case?

In Wisconsin family law cases, the courts generally give parents a lot of room to agree upon how they will provide financial support for their children after a divorce or legal separation. In cases where the parents cannot agree, the courts will step in, using various child support guidelines to determine a favorable solution.

In Wisconsin, child support obligations are calculated using the parents’ gross income (before tax) from all sources, including salaries, bonuses, commissions, and tips. Some parents may desire or require more child support than the calculations suggest. In other cases, the paying parent may feel that the calculations are unfair and that they cannot pay the child support obligations and still maintain a decent way of life.

Whatever the case may be in your situation, our child support attorneys have years of experience helping clients negotiate favorable terms for child support arrangements, and we would be proud to assist you through that process as well. To learn more about the benefits of retaining our legal services, please schedule your case evaluation with our legal team today.

Helping You Create a Thoughtful and Practical Placement Schedule

At HKK Law Offices, we know that few things matter more than your relationship with your children. When a separation or divorce involves determining where your children will live and how time will be shared, emotions can run high and the decisions made during this process can shape your family’s future.

In Wisconsin, physical placement refers to the court-ordered schedule that determines where a child resides and which parent has the right to make routine daily decisions during their placement time. This includes choices related to school, healthcare, and everyday needs. While legal custody addresses major life decisions, physical placement is about your child’s day-to-day life.

Contrary to popular belief, Wisconsin law does not presume a 50/50 split in placement. Instead, courts consider a variety of factors to create a schedule that best supports the child’s well-being. The placement plan should reflect what is truly in your child’s best interests considering their developmental needs, parental involvement, school arrangements, and more.

Our dedicated family law attorneys work alongside you to craft placement schedules that are fair, flexible, and designed to work in real life. We’re here to listen, guide, and advocate for a plan that supports your goals and protects your child’s stability.

The legal team at HKK Law Offices can help! Contact us today to learn how we can create a parenting plan that reflects the your needs and is best for your child’s future.
