Utah Family Lawyers Who Protect What Matters Most

Get clear guidance, strong advocacy, and steady support for every step of your case.

You deserve a family law team that fights for your future

You deserve support that protects your rights and the rights of your loved ones. When you come to Burton Family Attorneys, you’ll receive guidance to help you with your specific needs.

Whether you’re dealing with divorce, custody, paternity, guardianship, conservatorship, modifications, probate, or any other family-related issue, we stand with you through every step.

Regardless of how simple or complex your situation may seem, you can rely on our firm to provide you with personal, high-quality attention from start to finish.

Divorce

Divorce is a difficult, emotional process; you shouldn’t have to manage it alone. We’ll guide you through each step with knowledge, compassion, and steady support so that you can focus on your family and your future.

Paternity

You deserve clarity when questions about parentage arise. We’ll guide you on whether you need to establish rights, challenge a claim, confirm parentage, or secure custody or support.

Alimony

If you have questions about alimony, you deserve clear answers. Utah courts will examine each spouse’s needs, financial abilities, and long-term stability when deciding support.

We’ll help you understand what may be fair, what the court may consider, and how to protect your financial future during and after your divorce.

Custody and parent time

If you’re fighting for custody during a divorce or you’re an unmarried parent seeking time with your child, we’ll help you protect your relationship with your child and work toward a parenting arrangement that supports their well-being and your rights.

Child support

Your child deserves support from both parents, and Utah law protects that right. We help you understand how child support works, how the court calculates payments, and how to pursue fair support — whether you’re requesting it, modifying it, or enforcing it.

Division of Retirement (QDRO)

Divorce affects retirement assets, including 401(k)s, pensions, and IRAs. We’ll help you understand what the court requires and prepare the necessary QDRO documents, so your retirement funds get divided correctly and fairly. You’ll gain peace of mind knowing you have protection for your long-term assets.

Guardianship

If someone you love needs help with daily care or financial decisions, you may need to request guardianship or conservatorship. We’ll help you understand your responsibilities, complete the necessary filings, and support your loved one with the care they deserve.

Mediation

You’ll have more control over your divorce if you resolve issues through mediation. A mediator remains neutral and cannot provide legal advice; therefore, having an attorney present as counsel protects your rights.

We guide you through discussions about property, finances, parenting plans, and every issue you must settle before your divorce becomes final.

Modifications

We help modify custody, child support, and alimony orders when circumstances change, ensuring your legal agreements remain accurate and fair.

Probate

When someone you love passes away, you may need to manage their estate through probate. During this process, the court will appoint you to gather, protect, and distribute assets. This task can feel overwhelming, but we guide you step by step so you understand your duties and feel supported through every decision.

Protective orders

If you or a loved one needs help navigating a protective order, reach out to Burton Family Attorneys. You’ll receive reliable, compassionate, and experienced legal support. Your safety matters, and we’re here to guide you toward a more secure future.

Step-parent adoption

If you’ve built a deep and loving bond with your stepchild, you may want to make that relationship legal. Step-parent adoption secures your parental rights and creates stability for your family. We help you move through the process with care, clarity, and strong legal guidance.
