Minnesota Family Law Podcast

Created & Written by: Jason Kohlmeyer, Minnesota Divorce & Custody Lawyer


Whether you’re in the middle of a messy custody case or just starting to think about divorce, the Minnesota Family & Divorce Law Podcast is your go-to resource for smart, straight-talking legal insights. Created by Jason Kohlmeyer, a 25-year veteran divorce attorney and partner at Kohlmeyer Hagen Law Office, this weekly podcast answers real questions about what happens in a divorce or family law case.


From “Can I keep the house in a divorce?” to “Do I have to pay child support if we share 50/50 custody?” "Is Alimony still a thing?" Every episode tackles a common (or sometimes very uncommon) family law question, sometimes ripped straight from the headlines.


It’s like having your own private Minnesota family lawyer in your earbuds but minus the billable hour.


We cover everything from divorce, custody, child support, spousal maintenance, and co-parenting to prenups, domestic abuse orders, and the strange things that happen in family court, all in under 10 minutes an episode.


Why listen?


  • Created by a real Minnesota divorce lawyer—not a marketer, not a paralegal. Jason has handled thousands of family law cases from Mankato to Rochester and everywhere in between.


  • Clear and jargon-free: We break down Minnesota family law into plain English; we're not trying to impress anyone by using big words!


  • Topical and timely: We don’t just talk law, sometimes we explain how divorce headlines and current events impact families here in Minnesota.


Perfect for:

  • People thinking about getting divorced (or already in the thick of it)
  • Separated parents trying to understand custody laws
  • Anyone curious about how Minnesota family courts really work
  • Wanting a "second opinion" from what your current lawyer is doing

  • Mortgages and Divorce: Who Pays, Who Stays, and What Happens Next

    Mortgages and Divorce: Who Pays, Who Stays, and What Happens Next
    Jun 23 2025

    In this episode, Jason Kohlmeyer—Minnesota family law attorney and founder of Mankatofamilylaw.com breaks down one of the most stressful (and confusing) parts of divorce: the mortgage.

    Who keeps the house? Who keeps paying for it? What if both spouses are on the mortgage? Jason explains how Minnesota courts typically treat mortgage debt, what “debt follows the asset” really means, and why refinancing ( or even selling) may be the smartest move.

    We also talk about:

    • What to do immediately after one spouse moves out
    • How to handle joint mortgages when one person wants to stay
    • How a “divorce refinance” or mortgage assumption works (and why banks don’t always like it)
    • Why being “off the deed” isn’t the same as being off the hook to pay the mortgage.

    Whether you’re going through a divorce or advising someone who is, this episode offers clear, pragmatic guidance with real-world examples.

    Changing Child Support (How Do I Do That Again?)
    Jun 12 2025

    What if you lose your job (or get a big raise) after your divorce or custody order is finalized? Does child support automatically change? In this episode, Jason Kohlmeyer, a 25-year Minnesota divorce and custody lawyer, breaks down exactly how income changes affect child support in Minnesota.

    Whether you’re the parent paying or the one receiving support, this episode explains:

    1. When and how to request a child support modification
    2. What counts as a “significant change” in income under Minnesota law
    3. Why quitting your job won’t get you out of paying support
    4. How bonuses, second jobs, and side hustles factor into support amounts
    5. What judges actually look at when ruling on income change cases

    We’ll also cover real-world scenarios from Jason’s decades in family court and give a few tips on what to do, not to do, and what to ask your lawyer about changing child support!

    If you’re wondering how a new job, a lost job, or a career pivot impacts your child support, this is the episode you can’t afford to miss.

  • Baseball & Child Support?

    Baseball & Child Support?
    Jun 10 2025

    A look at Jay Jackson and his Child Support court order from Japan establishing paternity and ordering a (not small) amount of child support.

    Importantly for this podcast, looking at how Minnesota Courts interprete and we look at if they will enforce an order from out of state (and out of the country!).

    This is a good look at answering the question: Will Minnesota do anything if I have an out of state child support order?
