Clayton and St. Louis, Missouri, Custody, Visitation & Paternity Lawyer
Issues surrounding custody, visitation and paternity involve urgently important questions for parents and families. Will I be able to live with my minor children? Will I be able to visit my children regularly if my former spouse gains custody? How will my life with my children be affected? Will I be able to prove paternity so that I can visit my child or collect the child support payments I need?
At the Clayton and St. Louis, Missouri, Law Office of Christopher P. Cox, L.L.C. we have helped hundreds of families accomplish their custody, visitation and paternity goals during a divorce, following divorce, or when a child arrives outside of a marriage. If you need help or have questions regarding how to achieve a custody, visitation or paternity arrangement that will work for you and your child, we can help.
Are you concerned regarding the terms of a child custody or visitation arrangement? Have you been served with a paternity action, or do you wish to pursue one against your child's father? Call attorney Christopher Cox at 314.450.8039 or 866.882.2556 for experienced legal representation.
We have provided family law solutions to hundreds of St. Louis-area families. For example:
- Are you divorcing? We can work with you and outside experts to gather information and present your custody and visitation case to the court.
- Has the father of your child denied parental responsibility? We can work to locate him, serve him with court documents, arrange for a court-ordered DNA test, subpoena income information and establish a custody and support schedule
- Are you the custodial parent and is your former spouse refusing to honor a child custody, parenting plan or support agreement? We can pursue wage assignments, income withholdings, and garnishments to force the payment of funds, seize bank account and vehicles, and file a motion for contempt that can lead to jail time for the nonpaying parent.
We are experienced in all aspects of child custody, visitation and paternity — from grandparent visitation to modification of existing arrangements. For more information on how we can help you, please contact our office.
