Resolving the issue of Child Custody can be the most difficult aspect of many divorce proceedings as these decisions are very personal and emotionally difficult. It requires the utmost expertise and sensitively which we provide to our clients.

California has a Guideline for determining Child Support. Child Support is based on the income of both Parties and the custodial time share of each with the minor child or children. Most experienced Family Law Attorneys use a program called “Dissomaster” to calculate Child Support for the client. This is the same program used by the Court.

Family Law is a large practice area which includes many sub-specialties. It is an area where experience matters. We believe that Family Law matters should be handled expeditiously and as economically as possible while maintaining high-quality legal representation. We are committed to resolving divorce by settlement. When that is not possible, we provide strong and effective representation at Trial. We are committed to protecting your rights and values.

A Prenuptial Agreement is used to protect a person’s separate property acquired prior to the contemplated marriage. Since California is a community property State, a Prenuptial Agreement may be the best choice for distinguishing community property from separate property. Frequent considerations are the ages of the Parties, whether they have children from a previous marriage, and the size of the estate itself.
