Star Fathers Rights Attorney
Star is one of the fastest-growing small towns in the Treasure Valley, further northwest of Boise, still close to its farming roots even as new subdivisions fill in around it. The Law Offices of Jolley & Jolley represent fathers in Star and throughout the Treasure Valley in divorce, child custody, child support, paternity, and protective order matters.
If a Star case does require a court hearing, it falls under Idaho’s Fourth Judicial District Court, which covers Ada, Boise, Elmore, and Valley 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.
Star is a bit further from our Boise office than some of our other cities, but much of a case — consultations, paperwork, and many hearings — can be handled remotely so distance rarely gets in the way. Our aim is to give a Star father a clear picture of where he stands and a sensible plan for the next step.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where would my Star divorce or custody case be heard?
Star is in Ada County, served by Idaho’s Fourth Judicial District, which also covers Boise, Elmore, and Valley Counties. Much of a case, though, is resolved through paperwork, negotiation, and mediation rather than a courtroom hearing.
Does Idaho favor mothers over fathers in custody cases?
No. Idaho decides custody by the best interests of the child, without a preference for either parent based on gender. Idaho law also includes a presumption that joint custody is in the child’s best interests, which often works in an involved father’s favor.
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 Boise 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.
