Several people think of child custody and divorce when it comes to family law, but we provide much more than just those two. We also excel in adoption, father’s rights, paternity, and protective orders. No matter the service you're looking for, our family law attorneys have you covered.
Here are brief descriptions for each of the family law services we provide Goldsby residents:
Adoption – Adoption may be one of the most important services we provide, as you're looking to add a new member to the family. We understand this process can be exhausting, but the end result makes it all worth it.

Father’s Rights – Father’s rights, in cases where children were born out of wedlock, may be difficult to determine. If you do not have a proper court order in place, it can be difficult for you to schedule visitation time with your children. We understand how frustrating this process can be, and our family law attorneys are here to help you through this challenging time.
Paternity – Paternity plays an important role in determining a child’s father. These cases can provide information crucial to granting a child health insurance and child support. If you're the father of a child looking to go through a paternity case, our family law attorneys can help you provide your child with these benefits.
In the intricate landscape of Oklahoma family law, the right to appeal holds profound significance, ensuring fairness and justice in judicial decisions. Appeals serve as a procedural recourse for parties aggrieved by legal misjudgments, judicial discretion abuse, or unsupported verdicts in their family law cases. The scope of appealable family law matters is broad, covering pivotal aspects of familial relations and obligations.
Divorce Decisions – Central to many family law appeals are disputes arising from marital dissolution. This includes contested decisions on asset division, spousal support, and other crucial aspects of the divorce decree. Parties may appeal if they believe these decisions were based on legal errors or factual misinterpretations.
Child Custody and Visitation – Children's welfare is paramount in family law, extending to custody and visitation rulings. Appellate review often challenges trial court decisions, arguing inadequate consideration of the child's best interests or incorrect legal standards application.
Child Support – Another critical area involves child support payment calculation. Appellants may argue trial courts deviated from guidelines without justification or based decisions on inaccurate financial evidence assessments.
Adoption – Adoption decisions, laden with legal complexities, are appealable, especially regarding parental rights termination or adoption finalization. Appeals may argue overlooked evidence or failure to adhere to adoption process standards.
Paternity – Appeals may arise from disputed paternity determinations with significant custody, visitation, and support implications, challenging legal and procedural bases of trial court findings.
Protective Orders – Decisions on protective orders issuance, denial, or terms in domestic violence or harassment situations fall under appellate purview. Appeals often assert decisions were inconsistent with protective aims or overlooked relevant evidence.
Enforcement and Modification Orders – Orders enforcing or modifying family law judgments, whether on custody, visitation, support, or alimony, are subject to appeal. These often challenge ignored evidence, erroneous findings, or law misapplication by trial courts.
Each of these areas underscores the critical role of appellate review in upholding justice and legal correctness in family law. Given the complexity and strict procedural rules governing appeals, parties considering this legal recourse should seek counsel from skilled attorneys with expertise in Oklahoma family law appeals. Such guidance is indispensable in navigating the appellate process, articulating legal arguments with precision, and advocating effectively for desired outcomes.
In this second section, we're going to guide you through estate plans and how they work. Our estate planning attorneys have dealt with all kinds of estate plans, and we know how important it is to create the right plan for you and your family. If you seek any of the services provided below, consult with a Ball Morse Lowe estate planning attorney!
Estate Planning – Creating an estate plan is crucial if you're looking to protect both your family and assets following your passing. With the right estate plan in place, it's possible to make this process simple for your loved ones. At Ball Morse Lowe, we provide each client with the tools they need to create an effective estate plan. More importantly, we help clients follow all estate planning guidelines, so their plans are effective after their death.
Elder Law – Elder law works in combination with estate plans, as it is the education provided to senior citizens on how to handle finances later in life. Here at Ball Morse Lowe, our clients may not be fully prepared for this stage of life, but we're devoted to helping them get there. If you're a senior citizen living in Goldsby, please contact us if you have any questions about elder law!
Probate – Probate, as several already know if they have been through it, isn't a pleasant experience. All of your assets and beneficiaries are at the discretion of the state of Oklahoma, and they're more than likely not going to distribute these assets how you would prefer. Probate can be avoided with certain estate plans, but sometimes avoiding probate isn't possible. Our probate attorneys at Ball Morse Lowe understand this, and we're here to help families through this trying time.
Wills and Trusts – If you have a basic understanding of estate planning, you have more than likely heard of wills and trusts. Wills are legal documents that include information who your beneficiaries are, how you would like to distribute your assets, and can even include who you selected as your minor children’s guardian should you pass away. Trusts also provide information on your beneficiaries and your assets, but these estate plans can also entirely avoid probate.
Cohabitation Agreements – Creating a cohabitation agreement may seem confusing at first, but with the right estate planning attorney, this process may be quite simple. These agreements serve as a legal contract between you and your partner, explaining how you wish to handle financial matters during the relationship, as well as how assets are split following a potential break-up. If you and your partner are curious about these agreements and want to avoid marriage, please contact our estate planning offices today.
Power of Attorney – Selecting an agent to act on your behalf through important decisions, ranging from financial to medical, can be lifesaving in several situations. After the creator of a power of attorney becomes incapacitated and unable to make their own decisions, they will have a plan in place that will provide them the ability to continue making their own decisions in a way. These selected agents following rules laid out by the now incapacitated individual to make sure they're receiving the care they would choose under normal circumstances.
Business law matters can vary in complication, and if you're a business owner or are new to the entrepreneur experience, you may not fully understand each of these services right away. We want to assure you that you're not alone through this experience, as our business law lawyers are here to guide you every step of the way.
Business Litigation – Litigation, even at its simplest, can be an extremely confusing ordeal if you're not properly equipped for it. These issues can be sudden, but it is possible to come prepared. Our business law attorneys can assist you with any business litigation matter, including contract and real estate disputes, contract breaches, professional negligence, probate litigation, fraud claims, and more.
Entity Formation – Creating a company comes with its share of ups and downs, but we know it can also be an exciting time. You're looking to create a business from the ground up, and we're here to help make this process as smooth as possible. If you're looking to create a company, we recommend hiring a business law attorney rather than doing so on your own.
Succession Planning – Following a period of success for your company, you can be thinking it is time to pass the torch to a new successor, and you may have the right person in mind for the job. Several forget that it isn’t as simple as telling this successor they own the company now, it requires a lot of legal work to be done. We recommend combining your power with a business law attorney to find a solution in the best interest for your company.
Acquisitions – Buying or selling a business may be exciting, but like any business legal matter, it can make or break a business. If you're the buyer in this transaction, you must create all necessary paperwork for this process. If you're the seller, it is crucial you negotiate a reasonable price for the buyer. We understand this process isn't always amicable, but our business law attorneys are here to make sure you follow all steps correctly.
Mergers and Divestitures – Merging several companies into one business may seem quite detailed, but with the right business law attorney, it's possible to use this merger to boost your business further than before. Divestitures can also benefit your company greatly, as they're used to get rid of assets you no longer require within a company.

I cannot thank Karen Pearson and her team enough for all the support they've shown me throughout my unfortunate divorce. With all the twists and turns thrown at my situation both in my personal life, but also my military career. This team always made me feel as though my case took priority. I will forever be grateful for them and highly recommend either of them to represent you as you drudge through your specific situation. Thank you again to Ball Morse Lowe team for everything you did on my behalf.

If you are looking for a group of hard working, time efficient, diligent, and ethical attorneys, Ball Morse Lowe, PLLC and specifically Chris Michael would be a great choice.
I felt like I mattered. I felt like what I had to say was important. Glenn was thoughtful, encouraging and understanding. She helped me navigate the process and validated my thoughts about things I was not sure. Thank you Glenn!!! It was great working with you!
I turned to Ball Morse Lowe PLCC when I needed my mother's estate probated in Oklahoma. It involved mineral rights and I live in California and my mother had not lived in OK for over 60 years. I wanted a firm that would do this correctly and be reasonable in cost. Brian Hill was a pleasure to work with. He and his staff were professional, knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. They made the experience of probate painless, explained things as we went along, and were clear in their expectation of what they would need from me to move the process forward. I am so glad I found them and appreciate deeply all they accomplished on my behalf.
