Individualized Attention in a High-Volume Market
Many family law practices in the Nampa and Caldwell area take on as many cases as possible. We don’t. Schoettger Fabreguette Law Office intentionally keeps a low annual caseload so every Canyon County client receives genuine one-on-one attention. Lisa works through your goals at your pace, walking through the legal options available and explaining the advantages and disadvantages of each path. Your family and your future aren’t case file entries here.
Lisa also holds a credential that few Canyon County family attorneys can offer: she has been on the Idaho Supreme Court Roster as a court-approved child custody mediator since 2023. That means she can handle both courtroom litigation and child custody mediation for the same client, providing continuity through every stage of the process. Canyon County family law cases are filed at the Canyon County Courthouse in Caldwell and heard within Idaho’s Third Judicial District, which has no separate family court division. Cases move through district judges and magistrates, and having an attorney prepared for both negotiation and litigation matters.
Family Law Services for Canyon County Clients
We handle the full range of family law matters governed by Idaho Code Title 32, from straightforward uncontested modifications to complex divorces involving real property, business valuation, and significant personal property. Lisa has argued before the Idaho Supreme Court, and associate attorney Bethany Morrison is also on our team.
Our services for Canyon County residents include:
- Divorce – contested and uncontested
- Child Custody – initial orders and modifications
- Child Support – establishment and modifications
- Paternity Establishment – parenting time, decision-making authority, and support obligations
- Minor Guardianship
- Adoption
- Spousal Maintenance and Alimony
- Community Property Division
- Legal Separation
- Military Divorce
- Parenting Plan Modifications
- Child Custody Mediation – through the Idaho Supreme Court Roster
Under Idaho Code section 32-717B, there is a presumption that joint child custody serves children’s best interests, and parenting plans or support orders can be revisited when a substantial change in circumstances occurs. Whether you’re starting a new case or need to modify an existing order, we can walk you through what the process looks like and what to expect.
Steps To Take
After Canyon County Family Law
What Canyon County Residents Should Know About Family Court
All Canyon County family law cases, including divorce, custody, support, and paternity matters, are filed and heard at the Canyon County Courthouse in Caldwell. The Third Judicial District’s Family Court Services office, also based at the Courthouse, provides information and referrals to help families navigate proceedings and connects them with mediation and other resources. That environment rewards attorneys who can work constructively outside the courtroom as well as inside it. Lisa’s placement on the Idaho Supreme Court Roster for child custody mediation is a direct fit for that setting. Nampa and Caldwell residents don’t need to look to Boise for experienced family law counsel.
