Services

At the Law Offices of Shelley L. Bishop our attorney understands the emotional turmoil created when marriages fail and when former partners disagree about child support and custody issues.  We are dedicated to helping our clients work through these issues both in the courtroom and in their personal lives so that they may face the future with an uplifted sense of self and with the financial resources to live as comfortably as possible and to take care of their children.


Having been through a divorce herself, our attorney is well versed in learning to co-parent and our law firm is devoted to helping clients negotiate the tricky landscape created when two people, living apart, must establish guidelines and agreements regarding their children. Our attorney firmly believes in setting aside personal differences to create a stable, loving foundation in both parents' homes.  To that end, our law firm encourages clients to pursue alternatives to litigation such as collaborative law and mediation.  Our attorney is a member of the Collaborative Law Institute of Missouri, Inc.  


Should the various alternatives to litigation fail, our attorney enthusiatically engages in litigation to obtain the best result possible for our clients.
