American Fork Fathers Rights Attorney
American Fork sits in northern Utah County at the mouth of American Fork Canyon, the gateway to Timpanogos Cave National Monument, and has grown into a hub of the state’s Silicon Slopes tech corridor. The Law Offices of Jolley & Jolley represent fathers in American Fork and throughout Utah County in divorce, child custody, child support, paternity, and protective order matters.
If a American Fork case does require a court hearing, it falls under Utah’s Fourth Judicial District Court, which covers Utah, Juab, and Millard Counties. In practice, though, much of family law — the paperwork, negotiation, and mediation that resolve most cases — is handled without a courtroom appearance, and many hearings that do occur are held by video.
American Fork is just south of our Sandy office, so meeting in person is a short trip — and when it’s more convenient, consultations, paperwork, and many hearings can be handled remotely instead. From the first conversation, our aim is to give an American Fork father a clear picture of where he stands and a realistic plan for moving forward.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which court handles an American Fork divorce or custody case?
American Fork is in Utah County, so cases fall under Utah’s Fourth Judicial District, which also covers Juab and Millard Counties. Many matters are resolved through negotiation and mediation without a hearing, and hearings that are needed are frequently held by video.
As a father in Utah, can I get custody of my children?
Yes. Utah does not favor mothers over fathers; custody is decided by the best interests of the child, and a father who is closely involved stands on equal footing. We help American Fork fathers document and present that involvement.
Do I need to come into your office, or can we work remotely?
Either works. You’re welcome to meet with us in person at our nearby Sandy office, and much of a case — consultations, paperwork, and many hearings by video — can also be handled remotely when that’s more convenient for your schedule.
