Child Custody Mediation
Whether you’re a divorcing couple or an unmarried couple who’s separating, debates over child custody can seem endless and daunting. No one wants to consider losing time with their child, but for many couples, the best solution truly is to separate, leaving no choice but to share parenting time. So how can you come to an agreement that’s legally equitable and feels fair to both parties, as well as to your child? Often times, couples feel they need to battle in court to get the most amount of time with their child as possible. This method is neither healthy for the child nor conducive to a good relationship between two parents. Instead, we recommend seeking help from a child custody mediator. At Kallemeyn and Kallemeyn, we’re child custody experts who have been practicing family law for years, helping solve custody issues all over Minnesota, including the Twin Cities and northern suburbs.

Child custody issues are some of the most complex and difficult to sort out during and after a divorce. Parents must face the new reality that they will not see their kids as much as when the entire family lived together and this is difficult. Child custody issues do not end once the divorce papers are finalized. In fact, as children age, they begin to have their own opinions about who they spend their time with. This can create further conflict, hard feelings and strain on the relationships.
As we head into a brand new year, filled with New Year’s resolutions and renewed hope for a year full of peace, love and family, it is a good time to think broadly about your future. Estate planning is something that we may prefer to ignore, but it can be extremely important for our loved ones. The majority of Americans do not have a will, which means that in the unlikely event of an untimely death, their wishes are not spelled out for their loved ones and the court. The law firm at Kallemeyn & Kallemeyn can make the basic estate planning process simple, straightforward and fast, so that you can check it off of the New Year’s resolution list and move forward with your best year yet.
