Contrary to what many people think, naming a man on a child’s birth certificate doesn’t legally establish him as the child’s father. If the parents aren’t married at the time of birth, the mother is granted full legal custody and must establish paternity by a court order in order to file for child support. If the parents do not agree as to who the child’s father is, paternity may be established by a DNA test.

Thankfully, the team at Kowalski, Wilson & Vang, LLC, has extensive experience helping Wisconsin families navigate difficult situations like these. Reach out to us today to learn more and set up a consultation.

Unfortunately, not all divorces are amicable. If your spouse has physically or sexually abused you or your children or damaged your property, obtaining a restraining order or order of protection is important for your safety. You also may be able to get a civil harassment restraining order if your spouse is sending you repeated, unwanted texts or calls.

An experienced divorce lawyer will be able to help you obtain an order of protection efficiently. Get in touch with the team of family law attorneys at Kowalski, Wilson & Vang, LLC, to set up a consultation today.

In matters of distributing military benefits in a divorce, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. For instance, under the 20/20 rule, a spouse who has been married to a service member for 20 years is entitled to lifetime benefits if the marriage overlaps the member’s years of service. But even spouses who have been married for less time can receive benefits in certain circumstances.

Whether you are a service member or the spouse of a service member, it’s critical to consult with a divorce lawyer familiar with military divorces. The team at Kowalski, Wilson & Vang, LLC, has experience helping clients navigate the unique complexities of military divorces. Contact us today to set up a consultation.

Though it may be tempting to change the locks during a divorce, there are very few cases where it is legal to do so. If you have a “stay away” order of protection or have been granted exclusive occupancy of your home by the court, you may change the locks. Otherwise, changing the locks is illegal, even if your spouse’s name is not on the deed or lease.

When it comes to changing the locks, it’s wise to consult with an experienced divorce attorney. At Kowalski, Wilson & Vang, LLC, we’re committed to helping our clients navigate the challenges of divorce. Get in touch with us today to set up a consultation.

Parents must be able to prepare kids to enter the world as adults one day. And there are two parts to that equation: providing for physical needs and making life decisions. In child custody battles, physical placement deals with where kids will live and which parent will be responsible for managing their daily needs, such as food, shelter, transportation, and so on. Legal custody, on the other hand, deals with decision-making authority related to education, religious instruction, healthcare, and the like. If you need legal support in a custody battle, contact the attorneys at Kowalski, Wilson & Vang, LLC today.

Most people get married because they fall in love and want to spend the rest of their lives with that special someone. Nevertheless, it’s important to understand that marriage is also a legal contract and even a business arrangement in some cases. If you enter a marriage with significant assets, it’s wise to protect them with a prenuptial agreement, the same way you might defend personal assets before starting a business.

What are your thoughts on protecting individual assets before getting married? Share your opinions in the comments. And if you want to learn more about prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, contact us at Kowalski, Wilson & Vang, LLC today.

Wisconsin is a marital property state, which means all assets are divided 50/50 or as equally as possible in a divorce. This includes personal property like a home, automobiles, and bank accounts. What about your business? With few exceptions, what one of you owns belongs to both of you, including businesses. A pre-nuptial agreement could cover a business, but otherwise, you’ll have to negotiate or let the courts decide how to split assets. The attorneys at Kowalski, Wilson & Vang, LLC are here to help business owners negotiate fair outcomes for the division of assets during divorce. Contact us to learn more.

Has your child custody arrangement changed, and now you’re responsible for additional parenting time? Have you lost a job and had to accept a position at significantly reduced pay? When substantial changes in your situation occur, it may be time to reassess your child support agreement. If both parents agree to the changes, submitting a simple form will do the trick. Otherwise, you’ll need to petition the court to modify the order. The experienced team at Kowalski, Wilson & Vang, LLC is here to help with all your legal needs concerning custody and child support.

Sharing custody of children can be difficult, especially when it comes to vacation planning that might not fit into your scheduled parenting time. How can you work it out? Clear communication about travel dates and destinations is the place to start, and early planning can help ensure that your co-parent doesn’t already have something in the works. Consider getting permission in writing for your records and your peace of mind, even if the court order doesn’t expressly require it. Are you struggling with custody and co-parenting concerns? The caring and capable team at Kowalski, Wilson & Vang, LLC can help. Contact us today to learn more.
