Top Rated Family Law Attorney in Overland Park, KS

Sarah Carmody is the managing attorney at Sarah Carmody Law, LLC. Located in Overland Park, Kansas, she focuses her practice exclusively on family law matters, providing compassionate and effective representation to clients throughout the state as well as in neighboring Missouri. Ms. Carmody has been admitted to practice before all Kansas state courts since 2009 and before all Missouri state courts since 2008.

A significant portion of Ms. Carmody's practice involves her advising clients whose marriages are coming to an end and who are thus having to deal with such divorce-related issues as child custody and visitation, the division of complex marital assets and debts, and spousal and child support. She was raised by a single mother, and thus she knows how difficult the divorce process and its aftermath can be on young children. As a result, she brings a compassionate approach to these issues in the hope that she can help her clients reach an accord through negotiating a comprehensive settlement agreement rather than going through what can be a divisive and adversarial courtroom proceeding.

In addition to her divorce practice, Ms. Carmody works with clients whose marriages have already been legally dissolved and who are now seeking the enforcement of or modifications to existing parenting and support court orders. She has also regularly prepared and reviewed prenuptial agreements, and her family law experience has encompassed paternity establishment and disputes as well. Ms. Carmody's successful track record and superb ethics have earned her the high regard of her colleagues, including an "Excellent" peer-review rating through Avvo. A member of the Johnson County Bar Association and several other legal groups, she is a 2008 graduate of the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Law.
