Our Areas of Family Law

Child Custody and Visitation

Most situations in family law involve child custody or visitation disputes. Child custody is a parent’s legal right to be responsible for a child. Often in divorce or family affairs, parents contend over who will take custody of their kids. Whether your child custody matter will be resolved in court or mediation, it’s important to get legal help. Our family law attorneys specialize in protecting women’s custody and visitation rights.

Child Support

Child support is a parent’s legal obligation to financially support a child after divorce. If child support is ordered, the noncustodial parent must make monthly payments to the custodial parent with the purpose of paying for the child’s expenses. Understand that if you are a custodial parent, you may likely be eligible to receive financial support from your child’s parent. We’ll get you in touch with an experienced family lawyer that can help you win or enforce child support.

Divorce

An attorney that specializes in family law can best protect your rights in divorce. Most family law matters include issues relating to divorce, like child support, property division, custody and visitation, and alimony. You will be best served by a family lawyer that specializes in the area of divorce you need help with. Our experienced family law attorneys know how to properly defend women’s rights in divorce.

Divorce Mediation

Mediation can be a great way for spouses to resolve issues relating to family law. Spouses often seek mediation to settle issues like divorce and child custody out-of-court. A family law attorney can help both spouses reach a fair divorce agreement, or protect the rights of one spouse in mediation. Our family law attorneys help couples settle divorce terms out-of-court in Orange County, California.

Domestic Violence

Unfortunately, many family law situations involve issues of domestic violence. Understand that California law protects victims of domestic violence. An experienced family law attorney can help you exercise these rights. Our lawyers in Orange County proudly defend victims of domestic violence.

Judgment Enforcement

In family law, a judge can make a court order that legally obligates a spouse or parent to perform a designated task. These court orders can dictate terms of child custody and visitation, child support, alimony, etc.. However, some people choose not to obey these court orders. Some parents violate custody terms or fail to pay child support. If a court order has been violated, understand that you have legal recourse to enforce it. Enforcing a family law judgment without legal help can be extremely difficult. One of our Orange County attorneys can help you enforce a family law judgment.

Prenuptial/Postnuptial Agreements

Before they wed, spouses can sign a written contract, called a prenup, clearly stating how property will be divided and handled if they ever divorce. Married couples can do the same through a postnuptial agreement. An Orange County family law attorney from Her Lawyer can help you and your spouse reach and draft a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement.

Spousal Support (Alimony)

Spousal support, sometimes called alimony, is a spouse’s legal obligation to financially support their former spouse after a divorce. Alimony payments can be anywhere from 30% to 50% of a payee’s income, so it’s crucial to protect your rights in spousal support disputes. A family law attorney can help you establish or enforce an alimony order in Orange County.

How Can An Orange County Family Law Attorney Help Me?

Issues in family law like divorce, custody disputes, or judgment enforcement can be draining, especially without legal help. The way these matters unfold will determine your rights in them; an experienced attorney can serve you throughout the entire process.
