I was a teenager when my parents divorced and have seen countless friends and relatives go through divorces of their own. The negative impact on families can be minimal or extensive depending upon the level of conflict involved in the case. My approach to the practice of family law is to talk first and litigate second. It is almost always in your best interests to avoid a trial and litigation if possible. The expense of litigation is astronomical.
No client comes to see me becauses they are having a good day. My job is to make your bad day a little better, a little less frightening.
Let's determine the fastest, easiest way to resolve your issues so that you may gain closure and move forward.
I do understand that reaching an agreement is not always possible, especially when it comes to protecting your children. When settlement is not an option, I have years of experience litigating custody matters. I have represented hundreds of children in high conflict custody cases, in Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Bernardino.
I have experience litigating 730 Custody Evaluations, Parenting Plan Assessments, Child Interviews, Solution Focused Evaluations, Guardianships, International Move Aways, Out of State Move Away cases, cases involving drug abuse by parents and children, serious mental health issues, gender identity issues for parents and children, SARB hearings, I.E.P. meetings, obtaining CPS records, child abuse allegations, and sexual abuse allegations.
