Idaho Falls Fathers Rights Attorney
Idaho Falls is the Bonneville County seat, known for the falls and greenbelt along the Snake River and home to much of the Idaho National Laboratory’s workforce. The Law Offices of Jolley & Jolley represent fathers in Idaho Falls and throughout eastern Idaho in divorce, child custody, child support, paternity, and protective order matters.
If a Idaho Falls case does require a court hearing, it falls under Idaho’s Seventh Judicial District Court, which covers Bonneville, Butte, Clark, Custer, Fremont, Jefferson, Lemhi, Madison, and Teton 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.
Idaho Falls is a few hours from our Boise office, so we handle most Idaho Falls cases remotely — consultations, paperwork, and many hearings by phone or video — rather than asking a father to make the drive. Our aim is the same as it is for every client: give an Idaho Falls father a clear picture of where he stands and a sensible plan for the next step.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which court handles an Idaho Falls divorce or custody case?
Idaho Falls is in Bonneville County, served by Idaho’s Seventh Judicial District, which also covers Butte, Clark, Custer, Fremont, Jefferson, Lemhi, Madison, and Teton Counties. Many matters are resolved through negotiation and mediation without a hearing.
Can a father get joint custody in Idaho?
Often, yes. Idaho law includes a presumption that joint custody is in the best interests of the child, and custody is decided without a preference for either parent based on gender. A father’s active involvement in his children’s lives carries real weight.
Can you represent me in Idaho Falls if your office is in Boise?
Yes. A great deal of family law — consultations, paperwork, and even many hearings — can be handled by phone or video, regardless of distance from our office. We’ll always be upfront about when an in-person appearance is actually needed.
