Divorce is one of life’s most challenging transitions, impacting your family, finances, and future. At Johnson/Turner, we believe that while divorce is never easy, the process should be as clear, supportive, and empowering as possible.
With fixed pricing, a dedicated legal team, and a unique approach to family law, we help you navigate your divorce with confidence—no hidden fees, no surprises, just expert guidance every step of the way.
When it comes to dissolving your marriage, the attorney you choose matters. Here’s what to consider:

Every divorce is different, but most cases involve resolving:
✔ Custody & Parenting Time – Creating a plan that prioritizes your child’s stability, health, and well-being.
✔ Division of Assets & Debts – Determining what is marital vs. non-marital property and ensuring a fair division.
✔ Child Support & Spousal Maintenance – Establishing financial support based on state guidelines and each parent’s financial situation.
We help you understand your options and build a strategy that protects your rights while keeping your long-term goals in focus.
Legal separation allows couples to live apart and divide assets while remaining legally married. This may be a good option for:
✔ Couples who are unsure about divorce but want to protect finances & establish custody agreements.
✔ Those who prefer to keep healthcare or financial benefits tied to marriage.
We’ll help you decide which path aligns best with your needs and future goals.
Before filing, take these steps:
🔹 Gather financial & legal records (tax returns, property deeds, account statements, etc.).
🔹 Understand the financial impact of divorce, including spousal & child support.
🔹 Minimize social media activity—posts can be used as evidence in court.
To begin your divorce, you must:
🔹 Meet residency requirements (one spouse must have lived in MN for 180+ days).
🔹 File a Petition for Dissolution of Marriage in the county where you or your spouse resides.
🔹 Serve your spouse with divorce papers and await their response.
Many divorces are resolved outside of court through mediation, negotiation, or settlement agreements. However, if a fair agreement can’t be reached, litigation may be necessary.
We offer multiple divorce pathways to fit your unique situation, from amicable settlements to full legal representation in court.
Absolutely no obligation when you reach out for information. You need to make the best decision for you, we hope we can help.
By breaking the legal process into clear phases, we offer a customized approach that respects your unique circumstances while providing clarity and control. Navigating the legal system can feel overwhelming, but understanding what lies ahead empowers you to make informed decisions and move toward your fresh start with confidence. That’s why we’ve designed our Roadmap—a clear, visual guide that simplifies each step of your journey. This tool helps you see the big picture, set expectations, and make the legal process more accessible and manageable.
