Did you know?! Bussell Law Firm offers mediation services!

Andrea Bussell has been mediating family and civil cases in the 14th, 18th, 19th, and 21st circuits. Over the last six years sitting at the table as counsel, we know what makes a mediation work and what makes one fall apart. 🤝 Over the last several months, Ms. Bussell has completed several successful mediations serving as a mediator in family and civil matters. In addition, she has completed mediation training through Northern Kentucky University.

She is available for the following, to include, not limited to:

💬 Divorce and custody
🏠 Property and debt division
📄 Contract and civil disputes

Mediation gives both sides a say in the outcome, usually in a single day, instead of leaving it to a judge after months of waiting. 📅

Attorneys, I’d love to be on your list. Parties, ask your attorney about scheduling with me.

BUSSELL LAW FIRM | DEPENDENCY, NEGLECT & ABUSE CASES

Having your child removed from your care may be one of the most frightening experiences a parent can face.

If you are involved in a dependency, neglect, or abuse case, you may suddenly find yourself dealing with social workers, court hearings, case plans, drug screens, treatment requirements, visitation, and a system you may know very little about.

And when substance use or addiction is part of the allegations, you need an attorney who understands that these cases can be more complicated than simply telling someone to “stop using.”

My background working with Drug Court and substance-abuse issues gives me a perspective on these cases that goes beyond the courtroom. I understand treatment, recovery, relapse, accountability, compliance, and the work that may be required when a parent is trying to make meaningful changes and work toward reunification with their child.

At Bussell Law Firm, we represent parents in matters involving:

⚖️ Dependency, Neglect & Abuse proceedings
👨‍👩‍👧 Emergency and temporary removal of children
📋 Court-ordered case plans and compliance
🏥 Substance-abuse treatment and recovery issues
🧪 Drug-screening and testing issues
👩‍👧 Visitation and reunification
📄 Cabinet involvement and court proceedings
⚖️ Protecting and advocating for parental rights

A substance-abuse problem does not mean you stop being a parent. And asking for help does not mean you’ve stopped loving your children.

These cases are serious, and what you do after a child is removed can matter. Get legal advice, understand what the court expects from you, and start working on a plan.

BUSSELL LAW FIRM | PROBATE

When someone you love passes away, there’s already enough to deal with. The legal process shouldn’t be one more thing you have to figure out alone.

Probate can involve court filings, deadlines, creditors, property, financial accounts, and ultimately making sure an estate is properly administered and distributed. For someone who has never been through the process before, it can quickly become overwhelming.

Bussell Law Firm helps families navigate probate from beginning to end, including:

⚖️ Opening a probate estate
📄 Probate administration
👤 Assisting executors and administrators
🏠 Identifying and handling estate assets
💵 Addressing debts and creditor claims
📑 Court filings and probate requirements
🔑 Transferring and distributing estate property
⚖️ Other issues that may arise during estate administration

Losing someone is difficult enough. You focus on your family. Let us help you understand what needs to happen next.

Whether you’ve been named in a Will, need to be appointed to handle an estate, or simply don’t know where to begin, Bussell Law Firm can help you understand the process and your options.

BUSSELL LAW FIRM | FAMILY LAW

Life changed. Does your court order still work?

A lot can change after a custody, parenting-time, or child-support order is entered.

You may have changed jobs. Your work schedule may be completely different. One parent may need to relocate. Your children are older and their needs or schedules have changed. Income can go up—or down. An arrangement that made sense several years ago may simply not fit your family anymore.

When life changes, sometimes your court orders need to change too.

Bussell Law Firm assists clients with family-law modifications involving:

⚖️ Custody modifications
📅 Parenting-time and visitation modifications
💵 Child-support modifications
📍 Relocation issues
💼 Changes in employment or work schedules
👨‍👩‍👧 Changes in a child’s needs or circumstances
📄 Other post-decree family-law matters

You don’t necessarily have to keep struggling with an order that no longer reflects your family’s circumstances. Depending on the facts of your case, there may be legal options available to request a modification.

Life doesn’t stand still. Your family changes, your children grow, and circumstances change. Know your options.

BUSSELL LAW FIRM | BUSINESS FORMATION

💡 That business idea isn’t going to build itself.

Maybe you’ve had an idea in the back of your mind for years. Maybe your side hustle is starting to look a whole lot more like a real business. Or maybe you’re finally ready to stop saying “one day” and start saying “I did it.”

Starting something of your own takes courage, hard work, and a willingness to bet on yourself. But when you’re ready to make it official, you also want to make sure you’re starting on the right legal foundation.

Bussell Law Firm can assist entrepreneurs and small-business owners with matters such as:

🔹 LLC & Business Formation
🔹 Choosing and Forming a Business Entity
🔹 Operating Agreements
🔹 Business Agreements & Contracts
🔹 Business Filings & Entity Changes
🔹 Ongoing Legal Guidance as Your Business Grows

You bring the idea, the ambition, and the hard work. We’ll help with the legal side.

There may never be a “perfect” time to start—but there can be a right time to take the first step.

BUSSELL LAW FIRM | PROPERTY & CIVIL DISPUTES

Good fences may make good neighbors… but sometimes even a fence needs a lawyer. ⚖️🏡

Property disputes can start with something as simple as a fence, driveway, tree, or property line—and before you know it, nobody is speaking except through “NO TRESPASSING” signs.

Bussell Law Firm handles a variety of property-related and civil disputes, including:

🏡 Boundary line and property line disputes
🚧 Fence and encroachment disputes
🚗 Driveway and access disputes
📍 Easements and rights-of-way
📜 Deed and title disputes
🌳 Trees, property damage, and nuisance issues
🚫 Trespassing disputes
🏘️ Neighbor disputes
🔨 Land use and property-related disagreements
⚖️ Other civil litigation involving real property

If you and your neighbor can’t agree on where your property ends, who has the right to use what, or what somebody can—or cannot—do on your property, it may be time to find out what the law actually says.

Divorce is hard enough. Figuring out how to afford an attorney shouldn’t make it harder.

At Bussell Law Firm, we understand that the cost of legal representation can be a real concern, especially when you’re already dealing with the financial changes that often come with separation and divorce.

That’s why we offer a legal-fee financing option for eligible clients. Instead of having to handle the entire cost at once, qualifying clients may have the option to pay legal fees over time in installments through Pay Later, powered by Affirm and available through LawPay. Financing is subject to eligibility and approval.

Whether your divorce is straightforward or involves difficult issues concerning children, property, or finances, our goal is to provide practical guidance, straightforward advice, and strong representation as you move into the next chapter of your life.
