What services do we offer at Jagar Family Law?

Jagar Family Law is now only offering Document Preparation and Mediation for Divorce and Parentage actions in which a client seeks representation. 

Attorney Chelsea Jagar is also available to be appointed as a Parenting Coordinator, via stipulation of both parties and their attorneys if they are represented. 

In addition, Jagar Family Law offers Estate Planning, Step-parent Adoptions, and Adult Adoptions. 

 Often, family law offices receive calls asking for services that do not fall under the "family law" umbrella.  While our office is only offering document preparation and mediation in these areas, it is still important to know what areas that may include.  Family Law services at our office include the following:

• Divorce/Dissolution  of your Marriage or Domestic Partnership
• Paternity/Parentage Actions
• Child Custody 
• Child Visitation
• Child Support
• Spousal Support
• Property Division
• Guardianship
• Prenuptial/Post-Nuptial Agreements
• Stepparent Adoption
• Adult Adoption

Estate Planning can be very simple or very complicated, depending on the value of your estate and what your goals are.  Typically, a good estate plan will include:

• Will and/or Trust
• Power of Attorney
• Health Care Directives

Parenting coordination is a child-focused dispute resolution process, usually conducted by either a licensed mental health provider or a family law professional.  

A parenting coordinator (often referred to as a PC) is appointed by the Court, through a stipulation of the parties.  Through the order, the PC is empowered with quasi-judicial powers that allows the PC to make certain decisions or recommendations about parenting plan issues, clarify existing orders, making minor adaptations, and address the implementation of existing orders. 

Although some of these areas are related to family law and estate planning, our office does not offer these services:

• Individual Representation in Litigated Family Law Cases
• Requests for Attorney Fees
• Domestic Violence Restraining Orders
• International Adoptions
• Private Adoptions
• Civil Restraining Orders (where no domestic relationship existed)
• Tax Law
• Juvenile Court Proceedings
• Probate Litigation or Distribution
