Mississippi Family Law Attorney

Innovative Family Law Solutions – Jackson Divorce Lawyer

When you are embroiled in a divorce or paternity action, you may experience anxiety about potential changes in your relationship with your children and financial security.  At our law firm, Mississippi family law attorney William S. Kellum III recognizes the intense emotions individuals experience when navigating the legal process to resolve fundamental issues regarding the division of property, child custody, property division, child support, separate maintenance and other domestic relations matters.  Mr. Kellum is committed to seeking stable and satisfying solutions that allow our clients to avoid the aggravation and costs of repeatedly returning to court following a judgment for modification and enforcement proceedings.

The powerful emotions that people feel when dealing with a divorce can make it difficult to objectively evaluate potential settlements or even to communicate with the other party.  Mr. Kellum guides his clients past these emotional obstacles while carefully explaining available options so that his clients can reach an informed decision.  Unmarried parents or parents who are divorcing will need to find constructive ways to co-parent long after the parents’ personal relationship ends.  At our Mississippi family law firm, we are committed to diffusing animosity so that our clients can resolve these intensely personal matters in ways that allow our clients to move past their family law disputes toward a happier future.

Experienced Mississippi Divorce Attorney Handling the Full Spectrum of Family Law Issues

Mr. Kellum provides effective and compassionate representation in the full range of Mississippi family law cases that include:

  • Uncontested Divorce
  • Marital Dissolution
  • Actions to Establish Paternity & Child Support
  • Separate Maintenance (Alimony)
  • Complex Property Division
  • Valuation & Division of Family Businesses and Professional Practices
  • Restraining Orders
  • Child Support
  • Appeals
  • Wasting of Marital Assets
  • Modifications
  • Post-Judgment Enforcement (Contempt)
  • Prenuptial Agreements
  • Step-Parent Adoptions
  • High Conflict Custody Disputes
  • International Child Custody Cases
  • Annulment
  • Parental Relocation

There are situations where aggressive litigation is necessary, such as a custody case involving allegations of domestic violence, child abuse or substance abuse.  However, we recognize that our clients will have more available resources to rebuild their lives after a marital dissolution if their marital assets are not depleted by disputes not justified by the facts or potential outcomes.  Mr. Kellum has a track record for successfully assisting his client in reaching workable solutions that amount to win-win resolutions.  These results are achieved by carefully explaining his clients’ options and the probable outcome if the matter is left up to a family law judge.  He provides candid straightforward legal advice so that his clients can decide when aggressive litigation is an appropriate alternative.
