Family Law
At Van Cott, we represent individuals in all types of family law cases. We effectively and efficiently pursue our clients' claims and interests. A divorce or family law problem may have a more real and lasting impact on the lives of individuals than any other legal matter. We understand that truth, and treat each client with respect and compassion. Our family law attorneys have significant experience in conducting divorce, modification, and custody trials in all courts of the State of Utah. We have pursued a wide variety of issues in family law matters over the years, including child custody, child visitation and parent time, child support, alimony, retirement plan distribution, asset distribution, and debt allocation. We have decades of experience in investigating, valuing and challenging the valuation of complex assets such as closely held businesses or corporations, professional practices, intellectual property, or other unique assets.
Van Cott's family law attorneys act strategically, with an emphasis on the thorough and timely investigation and preparation necessary to gain the best results in divorce and child custody cases. We have strong trial skills, which enhance our ability to negotiate case resolutions, and we are experienced in managing "high profile" divorce cases with the utmost discretion.
When the time to negotiate ends, we are capable of handling complex trials. We always stand ready to vigorously and competently represent our clients and their interests. We have a strong background in other types of family law cases, including civil partner dissolutions, common law marriage, adoption, and juvenile court filings. In addition, we have extensive experience in prosecuting and defending protective order cases, restraining orders and stalking injunctions. In the unfortunate event of a crossover between criminal law and family law, such as allegations of violating a protective order, our team has the criminal defense expertise to coordinate the family law and criminal defense, maximizing the advantage to our client.
