Kirsten Byars, a resident of Lake St. Louis, Missouri, filed for dissolution of her marriage with Ryan Byars on November 1, 2024, in St. Charles County. The couple, who married on December 21, 2004, in Lenexa, Kansas, has been living separately since August 2023. In her petition, Kirsten cites irretrievable breakdown of the marriage, asserting that the relationship cannot be salvaged. The couple has two minor children, and Kirsten seeks joint legal and physical custody, with each parent sharing custody and visitation rights.
Kirsten, who is unemployed, requests maintenance from Ryan, who is employed by ReCor Medical. She also asks the court to divide their marital property and debts equitably, while seeking child support in accordance with Missouri’s Form 14 Guidelines. Additionally, she requests that Ryan contribute to her attorneys’ fees, as she lacks sufficient funds to cover these costs.
The petition, filed by Kirsten’s attorneys from Page Law LLC, marks the beginning of a formal process to dissolve the marriage. Both parties are residents of St. Charles County, and the court proceedings will determine custody, support, and the equitable distribution of assets. With no prior custody disputes in Missouri or any other ongoing cases regarding the children, the court’s intervention is sought to ensure a fair resolution for all involved.
