Orange County Divorce Attorneys Working Toward Your Goals

The initial steps of the legal process include a detailed explanation of the dissolution process and setting goals for a resolution that can be reached outside of court. We strive to reach agreements without litigation, as resolving matters outside the courtroom is generally favorable for both parties, saving time and money.

We help educate our clients by answering common questions such as:

• Is there an advantage to being the petitioner or the respondent?
• To what type of financial support am I entitled?
• How long will I be able to receive spousal support (alimony)?
• What assets are considered part of the community property division?
• What happens to our business?
• Can I keep my house?
• How is child custody determined?

When children are involved, their welfare is our priority. We minimize the negative impact of the divorce and ensure that all your questions are answered. By putting the children’s best interests first, we help determine the best resolution and ensure they receive the financial and emotional support they deserve.
