The path that starts with walking down the aisle and getting a marriage license can sometimes end with a walk up the steps of a courthouse and the filing of divorce papers.
The end of a marriage can be an unexpected and unwelcome detour that throws your hopes, dreams and best laid plans off course. It is a scary and unsettling time, and the choices you make and actions you take will impact the direction of your life — and those of your children — for a very long time.
Fortunately, it is not a journey you need to take alone. You deserve an ally and advisor who will listen to you, who appreciates the emotional, practical and financial challenges you face, and who will be by your side every step of the way.
How We Can Help
Prenuptial Agreements
We assist with drafting, modifying and contesting prenuptial agreements to protect the rights of both parties, including resolving disagreements concerning the allocation of pre-marital assets.
Divorce
Divorce can be a lengthy and complicated process, often leading to arguments between spouses over property division, assets and child custody. We make sure you understand your rights, mediate conflicts and represent you in court when necessary.
Child Related Issues
When marriages or relationships dissolve, disputes may quickly arise if children are involved. We understand the delicate nature of child-related matters and help you reach custody, visitation and support agreements that protect the best interests of your children.
Asset Division
Whether you have an existing prenuptial agreement or not, we will thoroughly evaluate your marital assets and ensure they are divided fairly. We also assist with resolving asset division conflicts.
Business & Farm Valuation
Assessing the value of a business or farm is a complex matter. We have extensive experience with appraising these investments and ensuring a fair division of assets is attained.
Alimony
Following the dissolution of a marriage, one spouse may be legally ordered to provide financial support to the other. Our goal is to help you establish fair and accurate alimony arrangements that are based on your unique financial situation.
About Shannon Simpson
Shannon Simpson
Founder
“For over 20 years, I have been helping women and men in and around Council Bluffs navigate the divorce process, providing compassionate counsel and powerful advocacy during a difficult time. I founded Simpson Legal Group, LLC because I firmly believe that any individual going through a divorce should have access not just to effective legal representation, but also to a lawyer who will take the time to get to know them as a person, not just a file.”
“I provide comprehensive representation for every aspect of divorce and related family law matters. Whether your marriage lasted months or endured for decades, whether you have a high net worth or a more modest portfolio of assets, and whether you have children or not, my commitment never wavers and my passion for your well-being never wanes.”
“As a lawyer and as your neighbor in Council Bluffs, I stand ready to be your partner on this journey. Together, we will get you and your children on the road to a bright and secure future.”
"I first met Shannon in 2007 which started out being a very dark time in my life. I found out that my marriage was in trouble and my brother was given 90 days to live due to cancer. As it turned out he died in 30 days. And I was still trying to come to terms with my marriage probably ending in a divorce. Not having a lot of experience with attorneys, I started asking around to see who other people had used and that’s when I was given Shannon’s name. My 1st consultation with Shannon was ironically on the day of my 36th wedding anniversary. But after meeting Shannon and her Legal Assistant, Bev, I knew that I had made the right decision. There were a lot of tears and tissues during that meeting and the many that followed. I have always said it takes the 3 F’s to make it through tough times-faith, family, and friends. And I would put Shannon into the friend category. But I also feel that she has the 3 C’s-competent, concerned, and compassionate. I can truly say that she went out of her way to help me through a tough time and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for an attorney. "
