How We Can Help

At Montroll, Oettinger & Barquist P.C., we understand the complexity of family law. Our  attorneys are fluent in Vermont’s laws and policies regarding family matters, including divorce, spousal support, child support and custody.

Divorce

Going through a divorce can be one of the most difficult experiences a client can face. While many choose to represent themselves in a divorce, the guidance of an attorney is helpful when there are children or complex property matters involved, or if you choose to file for a divorce based on fault of your spouse. Mark Oettinger understands the intricacies of divorce proceedings in Vermont and is available to guide you, in trial or mediation, through what is often a challenging time.

Child Support and Custody

Reaching an arrangement that provides the best possible support to your child is absolutely crucial to your child’s wellbeing. Legal custody, physical custody, and child support must be determined, and Montroll, Oettinger & Barquist P.C., will work with you to advocate for your child.

Kristen understands that divorce, parentage disputes, and custody battles are incredibly stressful, and emotional processes for her clients. She believes that her clients are experts on what is best for their family, and will work towards resolutions out of court whenever possible; she also understands that sometimes resolution outside of the court process is not possible, and in those cases, she guide her clients through the litigation process, and ensure that they understand what is going on with every step.
