Divorce, Family Law, Custody, Child and Spousal Support, Restraining Orders, and Property Division
I aggressively protect the rights of men and women and children at all stages of a divorce, from the initial filing through custody and visitation issues, child and spousal support determinations, quickly obtaining restraining orders and finalizing property division. I also handle post judgment requests for modifications or enforcement actions. I work with individuals on either side of a domestic violence dispute, handling all matters involving requests for restraining orders. I also counsel clients who seek to amicably resolve divorce and family law issues through mediation. See my page on divorce and related matters to learn more.
Compassionate and Supportive Family Law Representation
Family law cases are unlike any other types of litigation. Most people feel as though their world is falling apart. The issues involved are so personal, so intensely emotional, that an attorney needs to have an entirely different set of skills to properly represent a family law client.
A good family law attorney has to be patient, a good listener, supportive, and willing to let their client vent all the tumultuous emotions they're experiencing as a result of a divorce, child custody dispute, or in actions involving restraining orders. In my opinion, an excellent family law attorney needs to be an amateur psychologist who can appropriately understand and support their clients. It's not just about filling out forms and doing paperwork. You need to listen to your client, you need to understand your client, and you need to be able to competently address your client's needs.
As an experienced Los Gatos, Saratoga, Campbell, Almaden Valley, and Santa Cruz Mountains divorce attorney, I have handled extremely complicated cases involving valuation of professional practices and start-up corporations, stock option divisions, cases involving both family law and bankruptcy proceedings, and dozens of cases involving multi-million dollar estates. I have the expertise and knowledge to handle the most complex and intricate financial issues that can arise in a dissolution proceeding.
My office provides something you can't find with most attorneys: personalized, attentive, and responsive service. The number one complaint clients make about their attorneys is that they are unable to reach them. Attorneys don't return their phone calls and they go weeks or months without knowing what is going on with their case. I pride myself on returning phone calls and keeping my clients informed. My office policy is to return phone calls within 72 hours of receiving same. If you tell me that it is important in your call I will call you back that same day. That's my promise.
Guardianships and Conservatorships
I assist people who are seeking to establish a guardianship or conservatorship to protect a child or incapacitated adult. Please visit my guardianship and conservatorship page for more information.
