Facing a divorce, custody dispute, or other sensitive family matter is one of life’s most challenging experiences. You need more than just a lawyer; you need a dedicated advocate who will protect your rights while understanding the emotional and financial complexities involved. At The McCullough Group, we provide expert legal counsel for sensitive family law cases throughout Salt Lake City and across Utah.

Our approach is different. We don’t just see a case file; we see your future. We strive to integrate our family law practice with your individual and business goals, ensuring that the resolutions we secure today complement your long-term financial health and estate plans.

Whether you are planning for your future or navigating an unexpected change, our team is here to provide clarity and steadfast support.

Strategic Legal Guidance for Every Stage of Your Life

Our holistic approach means we look at the complete picture. We provide legal guidance to protect your family and assets through careful planning and decisive action before, during, and after a marriage.

• Proactive Planning (Prenuptials): Protect your individual assets and set clear financial expectations with a meticulously drafted prenuptial agreement.
• Growing Your Family (Adoption): Experience the joy of growing your family through processes like step-parent adoption, guided by an attorney who makes the legal steps clear and efficient.
• Navigating Divorce & “Gray Divorce”: When a marriage ends, we provide robust representation. For clients divorcing later in life—a “gray divorce”—we have special experience handling the division of mature assets, retirement accounts, and addressing how long-term care needs will impact financial settlements.
• Securing the Future: We help you look beyond the immediate resolution to update essential estate plans and legal directives, ensuring your new reality is fully reflected in your long-term plans.
