You're Not Alone in This
Family law matters are among the most personal and consequential legal situations a person can face. Whether you are going through a divorce, fighting for custody of your children, or trying to protect your rights as a parent, the decisions made in these proceedings will shape your life and your family's future for years to come.
At Hepworth Legal, our family law attorneys combine legal skill with genuine compassion. We understand what is at stake — and we fight for outcomes that protect your children, your financial security, and your future.
Family Law Services
From divorce and custody to prenuptial agreements and adoptions, we handle the full range of Utah family law matters.
Divorce
Utah divorce proceedings covering property division, alimony, and — when children are involved — custody and support. We handle both uncontested and contested divorces with the same focus: the best possible outcome for you.
Child Custody & Parent Time
Utah law uses a detailed parent-time schedule as a baseline, and courts determine custody based on the best interests of the child. We advocate firmly for parenting arrangements that protect your relationship with your children.
Child Support
Utah child support is calculated by formula using both parents' incomes and the custody arrangement. We ensure support is set correctly from the beginning and pursue modifications when circumstances change.
Divorce Modification
Life changes — so can your divorce decree. When income, circumstances, or children's needs change materially, we petition the court for modifications to custody, support, or parent-time orders.
Prenuptial Agreements
A properly drafted prenup protects premarital assets, business interests, and children from prior relationships. We draft enforceable agreements that hold up in court and reflect the intentions of both parties.
Step-Parent Adoption
Making a parental relationship official through step-parent adoption creates permanent legal bonds. We guide families through Utah's adoption process — from termination of the biological parent's rights through the final adoption hearing.
Father's Rights
Fathers must be strategic and prepared to secure meaningful custody and parent time. We help fathers establish paternity, fight for fair custody, and enforce parent-time rights against interference.
Domestic Partnership
Unmarried couples need legal protections that marriage automatically provides. We draft cohabitation agreements, advise on estate planning for unmarried partners, and address property rights when relationships end.
