Family Law

Divorce
Child Support
In Missouri, both parents owe a duty of support to their children. (§452.340 R.S.Mo.) Where a child support determination is to be made, the court may order either or both parents to pay a reasonable amount for the support the child. The support calculation is based on a numeric formula, which includes several factors; including, but not limited to, the financial resources of the parents.
Child Custody and Visitation
Sharon Remis a St. Louis native has been practicing Family Law including divorce; modifications; custody and visitation; paternity; relocation; guardianship; adoption; enforcement and contempt since she began her law career in 1995. Ms. Remis has represented clients in many family law cases and understands each family is unique. Her knowledge, experience, advocacy, creativity and compassion drives the results for her clients. She is a certified mediator. Ms. Remis regularly serves as a Guardian ad Litem in custody cases and also volunteers in the Domestic Violence Court as a Special Private Prosecutor and as an assistant to the Court.
Adoption
Adoption is perhaps the most rewarding facet of family law. Adoption is a surprisingly intricate process. In order to provide significant due process rights to the natural parent or parents of a child, the court requires scrupulous documentation regarding the adoptive parents and the natural parents. (§453.010 et seq. R.S.Mo.) The court will appoint an attorney for the child, known as a Guardian Ad Litem. Our attorneys are experienced in navigating the procedural hurdles to adoption, whether a step-parent adoption or two-parent adoption.

Employment Law

Non-compete Agreement
Often times in such disputes, one party or the other is subject to a non-compete or non-solicitation agreement which may further complicate the issues in the case. Non-compete agreements generally prohibit a former owner, employee or officer of a corporation from competing within the same industry within a certain area and for a certain period of time. Non-solicitation agreements generally prohibit former employees, owners and officers of a company from soliciting customers and employees and sometimes vendors of the company for a period of time. Because such agreements can restrict a persons ability to earn a living within their industry, and because the agreements are intended to protect the company’s relationship with their customers these agreements can be highly contested. Non-compete and non-solicitation litigation is frequently very fact specific. However, it is important to start with the knowledge that Missouri does recognize non-compete agreements and non-solicitation agreements, assuming that they are reasonable.

Wills
Power of Attorney
Durable Powers of Attorney for financial affairs are also useful tools, allowing people to appoint a representative who can sign legal documents or perform legal acts for them in the event they are out of town, out of the country or otherwise indisposed. Of course, Durable Powers of Attorney for financial affairs are also helpful if an individual becomes disabled or incapacitated for some reason. Powers of Attorney can either immediately grant authority to the attorney-in-fact, or the authority of the designated person can be “springing”, meaning that the attorney-in-fact does not have any authority until a stated event occurs. Powers of Attorney are extremely important for the elderly, such that, if a parent should suffer a stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, require surgery or extended hospital stay, a child can manage their financial affairs, until they recover or until their death. Powers of Attorney by law expire upon the grantor’s death.
