Experienced California family law firm guides you and your loved ones towards a positive outcome
Full-service family law firm in Santa Barbara
Our firm has worked with men and women at all stages of a divorce or dissolution of marriage, from the decision to file through post-judgment requests for modification or enforcement of an existing divorce decree. We have been serving Santa Barbara and the surrounding counties since 2001, and we provide legal services in all areas of family law, including:
- Alimony / Spousal Support
- Child Custody and Visitation
- Child Support
- Child Support Modification and Enforcement
- Divorce
- Property Rights / Division of Marital Property
Alimony / Spousal Support
Divorce should not lead to financial crisis. We will work with you to determine whether alimony/spousal support is necessary and, if so, establish how much needs to be paid and for how long.
Child Custody and Visitation
We will help you to establish and put in place custody and visitation arrangements that are in the best interests of your minor children and that promote your role as a parent.
Child Support
We will review all proposed child support orders for compliance with California guidelines and to ensure that all income is included in the calculations.
Child Support Modification and Enforcement
Child support payments do not change unless the court modifies the child support order. If either the custodial or the noncustodial parent experiences a significant change in circumstances, our attorneys can guide you through the proper legal procedures to modify your child support payments accordingly.
Divorce and Legal Separation
Through settlement or litigation, our divorce law firm can help you gain the most equitable results from your divorce, including fair distribution of assets, division of the marital home, child support payments and child custody rights.
Property Rights / Division of Marital Property
We will help you divide the debts and assets of your marriage under California’s community property laws, including real and personal property, financial assets, retirement funds and business interests.
Domestic Violence Restraining Orders
We represent parties involved in domestic violence matters.
