Valuable Experience with California Family Law Cases

California family law covers a broad range of legal issues and cases. At The Hunter Law Group, our dedicated family law attorney has spent a substantial portion of his legal practice focusing on resolving legal disputes that arise under California family law.

You can turn to The Hunter Law Group to provide personalized legal representation in the following cases:

• Annulments: In some cases, a couple can end their marriage by filing for an annulment. If your marriage would be considered legally invalid based on certain facts, you can request the court to declare your marriage to have never existed in the first place.
• Divorce: Each marriage is different. As a result, no divorce case is exactly like another divorce. Our legal team has worked with various divorce matters, including uncontested and contested divorces, as well as high-net-worth and military divorces.
• Legal Separation: If you aren’t sure whether getting a divorce is right for your case, you might benefit from getting a legal separation. We can advise you about whether this course of action is appropriate for your needs.
• Child Custody: When a divorce involves minor children, one of the most critical issues to resolve involves determining which parent the child will live with after the divorce. Our legal team has experience with custody issues, including temporary custody and enforcing custody orders.
• Visitation: In custodial arrangements where a minor child primarily resides with one parent rather than the other, the noncustodial parent still has a right to visit the child when they can. We have experience consulting and crafting parenting plans that provide fair terms for a parent’s visitation rights.
• Child Support: You can count on our legal to help you with issues such as the calculation, modification, and enforcement of child support obligations.
• Spousal Support: Spousal support is appropriate in certain cases where one spouse would not have adequate resources to cover their living expenses after divorce. We can advise you and matters concerning the duration and amount of spousal support available in your case under California law.
• Mediation: A significant way a couple can minimize the conflict and expenses associated with conventional divorce litigation is to cooperate during mediation sessions. We have experience resolving divorce cases through mediation to help you save on legal costs.
• Modifications: If you cannot comply with the terms of your divorce due to a material change in circumstances, you may be entitled to modify those terms. Our family law attorneys can guide you through the complicated legal issues associated with modifications.
• Paternity: When it comes to the care, custody, and financial support of a minor child, these rights and responsibilities depend on the existence of a parent-child relationship. We can represent you during paternity proceedings where your parental rights may be at stake.
• Post-Marital Agreements: In some marriages, it may be appropriate for the couple to enter into a written agreement that clarifies their property rights as a married couple. We can advise you on whether a post-marital agreement can benefit you and your family’s needs.
• Pre-Marital Agreements: Can you benefit from a pre-marital agreement? The answer depends on the specific circumstances unique to your case. Consult a member of our legal team to find out if a pre-marital agreement will benefit you and your marriage.
• Property Settlements: Divorcing couples can get into intense conflict about how to divide the property they acquired during their marriage. You can count on us to guide you through complex issues involving California community property to help you find a just solution to your legal dispute.
