Vega Law Offices, LLC is a general practice Gardner, Kansas
law firm. We serve all of Johnson County and the surrounding Kansas areas, from
Overland Park and the Kansas City metro area to Lawrence and Douglas County, as
well as Miami County (Paola) and Franklin County (Ottawa).
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.
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.
