Family 60%

Family law cases range from obtaining a divorce from beginning to end, including property, custody and support issues, to stepping into a case already in progress and handling limited issues. Custody and support issues are the most hotly contested and have been at the heart of the few trials over the years. The vast, vast majority of family law cases can and should be resolved peacefully and amicably without need for trial.

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy 30%

We are careful to screen clients to determine which chapter of bankruptcy is appropriate and to their best interest. When chapter 7 relief is called for, we move with efficiency and precision to make sure clients get their discharge. We do bankruptcy in the Eastern and Northern Districts of California, handling clients throughout Solano, Napa, Marin and Sonoma Counties.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
