DIVORCE

California law allows you to file for divorce based on irreconcilable differences or incurable insanity. You don’t have to go to court to resolve issues in your divorce. Seek mediation or other alternative methods of dispute resolution before you consider a court trial.

Under California child custody laws, either the father or mother can be granted custody of the child. In determining who gets primary custody of the child, the court will prioritize the best interests of the child.

CHILD SUPPORT

Under state law, child support payments are calculated based on a predetermined calculator, but in some cases, the court may decide to go against the guidelines and award higher or lower child support.

PRENUPTIAL AND POSTNUPTIAL AGREEMENTS

Prenuptial agreements help you define important matters related to the division of assets, child support payments, alimony payments, and other matters right before the marriage. Postnuptial agreements also help you fix potential problem areas in your marriage, but these agreements are signed after the marriage.

SPOUSAL SUPPORT ORANGE COUNTY

Even if the marriage has lasted less than 10 years, you may be eligible for spousal maintenance payments. Speak to a Orange Couty family lawyer about the alimony payments that you’re likely eligible for.

COHABITATION AGREEMENTS

If you have chosen to live together before getting married, it is even more important to protect your interests in the form of a co-habitation agreement. In the absence of an agreement, you may find that many of the benefits that apply to a married couple do not apply to you.
