When you think about your families, the law may not be the first thing to come to mind. Though family is often where you turn to in order to escape the hardships of the world, sometimes your family is the source of your struggles. When this happens, the law steps in to help protect you and your family.
According to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, there were 6,398 marriage dissolutions in Kansas in 2019, including 6,303 divorces and 95 annulments. A divorce or legal separation can have significant long-term effects on your family, your finances, and your assets.

Considering the emotional and psychological toll that divorce can have, a person can easily make irrevocable mistakes during the legal process, especially without detailed guidance or representation.If you live in Kansas and are considering filing for a divorce or you've just been served with divorce papers, it is crucial that you consult with an experienced family law attorney as soon as possible for proper guidance.
More than 22,000 incidents of domestic violence were reported in Kansas in 2019, and half of those resulted in arrests. That means that thousands of men and women were accused of committing violence against a member of their family or household. It also means that thousands of men and women were frightened by the physical, sexual, or emotional abuse used by someone else in an attempt to assert control over them.
When a couple decides to get divorced, issues of alimony often arise during divorce negotiations and need to be addressed appropriately. In a recent report by the U.S. Census Bureau, nearly 243,000 people received spousal support payments in 2016, of which 98% were women.

If you are considering filing for divorce and would like to understand your options regarding spousal maintenance, it is critical that you consult with an experienced Kansas family law attorney for reliable legal guidance.At Cornerstone Law, LLC, I am committed to offering comprehensive legal services and reliable guidance in matters of divorce and spousal support.

Mr. Johnson is an amazing lawyer!!! We turned to him during what felt like the worst days we could face, and he helped guide us, protect us, and has reassured us he would be by our side through our adoption process. Steve is such a blessing to our family and we would HIGHLY recommend him to everyone!!!!!
Thank you Steve... ~The Eagle Family

Hard work and dedication make it a personal experience, like you, and only you, are their top priority. Personable and friendly, yet hard hitting when it matters, this is a law firm that has their head in the game and eye on the prize.

Matt Wilson did not do what he said he was going to do. Kept telling me I never gave him information which I did several times and my brothers were present. He takes 5 minutes between each word so we are on the phone for an hour. I had to move in 3 hrs because he dropped the ball. He lied to other lawyers and to me. He will not be an asset for your case. Stay away from him.

We had an appt with Mathew Wilson, he showed up to the appt. 30 min late. Kept going off on random tangents about the receptionist sneezing and generally wasting our time. Need less to say we sought representation else where.

I use Cornerstone for all of my legal needs. They make you feel like you are their only client and Carey always goes above and beyond to make sure I am always up to date on the status of my litigation. Highly recommend.

Terrible experience. Jim Gillmore's lack of knowledge, poor communication, and wrong information led to over-billing and prolonged resolution.
