s )
We frequently receive questions about basic issues about how
Kansas law and about issues of critical importance to everyone involved in
family law. As professionals, we feel it is important for correct answers to
those questions to be readily available. We have, therefore, provided as a
public service on this page answers to many of the many of the frequently
asked questions we receive.
Please keep in mind that the information provided is very
general and anyone involved in a family law dispute should contact a
qualified attorney to find out how the law applies to that person’s own
specific situation. Although domestic relations is governed primarily by
state statutes, individual judges determine how those to apply those statutes
in any individual case and situation. Domestic relations law is not “black-and-white”
and the statutes do not specify exactly how the courts are to decide any case
or issue. Instead, the applicable statutes provide judges and attorneys only
broad principles to apply in deciding how to determine domestic relations
issues – such as “equitable distribution,” “best
interests of the child,” and to decide what is “fair and
appropriate” in any case.
