Divorce

Divorce is a deeply sensitive and personal matter for every couple that goes through it. There are so many legal implications tacked onto getting a divorce, which can be hard to navigate when you’re grappling with the emotions associated with ending your marriage. While some couples are able to divorce amicably, not all are. This legal process can raise tension and discord in a way you might have never expected, or you may have seen it coming from miles away. Our experienced Isleton family law attorney can explain your options and protect your best interests.

Custody

Custody can be one of the hardest, if not the most difficult, parts of divorce. Your kids are the most important people in your life, so the idea of creating an arrangement where you’ll likely have less time with them doesn’t feel good. Again, even in an uncontentious situation, this is a topic that can bring up feelings of frustration, resentment, and anxiety.

Remember, while this is hard for you, it’s just as hard for your children. Making decisions in their best interests is what matters most. In California, a judge will consider a variety of factors when determining what your custody arrangement will be. The courts generally prefer a joint custody situation whenever possible.

We will take the time to understand your story, address your questions and concerns, and advocate for your parental rights to ensure a fair outcome.

Alimony & Child Support

Alimony, also known as spousal support, is the amount of money that the courts might require one spouse to pay to the other, based on an imbalanced financial or living situation. For example, if one spouse’s role was stay-at-home parent, a divorce could leave them with no income and no home. Some spouses struggle to find a fair balance when it comes to whom and how much alimony is awarded. Whether you’re trying to secure a fair amount or feel you’re being taken advantage of, we can help build a strong case on your behalf.

Child support, like custody, can be shared by both parents, or one parent might be required to provide the majority of financial support depending on the circumstances. This arrangement is designed to ensure that the child/children receive everything they need. How much support is paid will depend mostly on the exact circumstances of your case. Our skilled Isleton family lawyer can help you pursue or defend against the amount that accurately reflects your child or children’s needs.
