Orem sits in central Utah County, just north of Provo. The Law Offices of Jolley & Jolley represent fathers in Orem and across Utah County in divorce, child custody, child support, paternity, and protective order matters.

If a Orem 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.

Orem is an easy drive south from our Sandy office, and we can handle much of a case remotely when that’s more convenient for your schedule. From the start, our aim is to give an Orem father a clear, realistic picture of where he stands and a plan for the next step.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where would my Orem case be heard?

Orem is in Utah County, served by Utah’s Fourth Judicial District, which also covers Juab and Millard Counties. Keep in mind that most divorce and custody matters are worked out through negotiation and mediation, without a courtroom hearing.

Do most family law cases in Utah go to trial?

No. The large majority of family law cases settle by agreement, often with the help of mediation, which Utah courts generally require before a contested trial. A trial is the exception rather than the rule.

How is child support calculated in Utah?

Utah bases child support on both parents’ incomes and the number of overnights each parent has with the children, using the state’s guidelines. Since parenting time changes the figure, support and custody are usually addressed together.
