Comprehensive Legal Help With Closely Related Issues
My legal practice is based on the concept that family law, estate law, and business law are closely intertwined for many people in California. All of these areas involve planning ahead so that your personal and business relationships can be mutually supportive, even when it is necessary to end or alter a specific relationship.
Contact me to schedule a free initial consultation at one of my offices in Encino or the Santa Clarita Valley about any of the following issues:
- Divorce: A good attorney should take a comprehensive approach to all of the issues involved in or affected by the dissolution of a marriage.
- Division of property and debt: California's community property law means certain property and debt must be carefully untangled during divorce.
- Child custody: The courts consider the best interests of the child paramount in deciding how to assign legal and physical custody.
- Child and spousal support: It is important that these ongoing support obligations be set fairly, based on all available information.
- Divorce and family business: Depending on timing and other specific factors, your spouse may have legal rights in your business upon divorce.
- Estate planning and divorce: If you are going through a divorce or separation, it may be important to update your estate plan.
- Domestic partnerships: In California, domestic partners have or can obtain almost all of the rights that married couples enjoy.
- Blended families and stepchildren: Child custody, visitation and support issues can get complicated in blended families. I can help you sort things out.
- Prenuptial agreements: A prenuptial agreement can help you enter into marriage with your eyes open, protecting your family and business.
- Estate planning: Don't leave your personal affairs for your loved ones and the courts to sort out. I can help you comprehensively plan ahead.
- Business succession planning: Who do you want running your business when you die? What is your plan in the event your business partner dies?
