We serve all of Johnson County and the surrounding Kansas areas, including Douglas County (Lawrence), Miami County (Paola), Franklin County (Ottawa), Linn County (Mound City), Shawnee County (Topeka) and Wyandotte County (Kansas City).

Our attorney, Tina Cox-Vega, opened her own practice in 2000 and has a Master’s Degree in Business Administration. Personal service and excellent legal counsel are our goals and our hallmark.

Divorce and Family Law
VLO handles all aspects of family law, including divorce, custody and visitations, child support, child adoption and other services. Our philosophy is to settle matters out of court when possible.

Child in Need of Care

Child in Need of Care cases are a very delicate are of the law, dealing with custody, placement, visitations and parental rights of children.  An experienced lawyer can make the system easier to deal with in order to protect you and your child's rights.

Small Business Law and Commercial Law
We assist entrepreneurs and small businesses in business formation, tax filing and litigation matters. VLO also represents commercial clients in acting on liens, foreclosures and bankruptcy.

Income Taxes
Ms. Cox-Vega prepares all types of personal and business income tax forms, including extensions and files them electronically for prompt processing and refunds.

DUI/DWI and Traffic Violations
Vega Law Offices handles criminal defense of drunk driving citations, as well as other traffic offenses, such as speeding, reckless driving and hit and run. Contact an experienced DUI lawyer immediately to protect your rights if you are arrested for driving under the influence or another traffic violation. The consequences of a conviction are too severe – it can affect your insurance, your driver’s license, job applications and possibly your freedom. If you are charged in Kansas with drunk driving, you must file with the state within 10 days to request a hearing for limited driving privileges. Ms. Cox-Vega can represent you at the hearing.

Estate Planning
VLO can prepare a simple will and accompanying trusts, so that family members can leave everything to each other if they die. Ms. Cox-Vega prepares a comprehensive document that can include a family trust to provide for minor children, a simple will to distribute assets, a living will and health care power of attorney for medical decisions and a durable power of attorney.

Every person should have a will, not just “rich folks”. Without a will, the state of Kansas will dictate how your estate is settled – not necessarily as you would have wished.

Record Expungement
Certain criminal convictions can be wiped clean from your record after a specific period of time, or if you have stayed out of legal trouble since serving your sentence. VLO can get records expunged for juveniles and adults to clear the person’s name and – among other things – legally fill out job applications without mentioning the conviction.
