About

Clagett Law is a family law firm serving Elizabethtown and the surrounding Kentucky area. Led by attorney Cassie Clagett, who has practiced law since 2005, the firm brings extensive experience across divorce, child custody, child support, estate planning, and military divorce matters.

Cassie Clagett graduated from the Thomas M. Cooley School of Law and spent much of her early career in personal injury, insurance defense, and employment law before discovering her true calling in family law. Born and raised in Elizabethtown, she brings both professional expertise and personal understanding to family matters. As a mother and wife herself, Clagett brings genuine insight into the family issues her clients face, combining that perspective with a commitment to honesty, transparency, and a positive approach to even the most difficult situations.

Clagett Law deliberately maintains a small boutique practice rather than expanding to handle numerous cases simultaneously. This deliberate choice allows the firm to remain closely familiar with each client's matter and provide personalized attention from initial consultation through case conclusion. The firm recognizes that family law situations are rarely identical—what works for one divorce or custody dispute may not serve another client's goals or circumstances. Rather than applying a standardized template to every case, Clagett Law takes time to listen, understand each client's specific expectations, and develop a customized strategy accordingly.

The firm handles the full spectrum of family law needs. For parents navigating custody questions, Clagett Law assists with arrangements involving joint custody, shared custody, or sole custody, working to reach agreements that prioritize the child's best interests. In divorce proceedings, the firm addresses interconnected issues including asset and liability division, maintenance payments, and child support calculations using the Kentucky Child Support Worksheet. When circumstances change after divorce—such as a move that affects a child support obligation—Clagett Law handles modification proceedings to ensure orders reflect current realities.

Military service members and their spouses benefit from Clagett Law's specialized knowledge of military divorce complexities, including extended filing dates and military medical benefits for former spouses. The firm also assists clients with estate planning to ensure their affairs are properly ordered and documented.

Client feedback reflects satisfaction with the firm's service and results. One parent who needed a child support modification after relocating to Elizabethtown praised the process as easier than expected and credited Clagett Law with finding an effective solution.

For Elizabethtown residents facing family law challenges, Clagett Law offers the combination of deep local experience, practical understanding of family dynamics, and the focused attention that comes from choosing to remain a small, client-centered practice.
