You want the Judge to "get" your side of the story so that you have a good shot at a great result. Your case needs to be presented clearly so that the Court can recognize the relief you should be granted. While dealing with your stressful legal issues I enjoy the story telling aspect of practicing the law. There often are complex legal rules that will control the outcome in your case, and you want the Judge to hear all the relevant facts that make up your case. If you are not heard by the Court, even when you are totally in the right, the results will be poor. You need to be heard so all the critical points in your case are given the weight you deserve.
I am a Certified Family Law Specialist, Certified by the California Board of Legal Specialization since April of 2011. If you have a Family Law type story I will know what points you need to emphasize . I have many years of experience researching and litigating complex legal disputes over divorce, child support, spousal support, asset division and related issues frequently resulting in solutions to seemingly unfixable problems. I have been practicing Law for over 22 years, and spoke at continuing legal education with National Business Institute since 2017. You can tell me your story, and I will let you know my opinion of what you should be doing to make it better.

My divorce property division case should have been very simple, because there were no child custody issues or alimony issues. There was only real estate and marital income that needed to be divided. But the lawsuit began in 2012 and did not end until this year (2024). Of course, this was delayed for ...
