California Divorce Laws

California allows for a no-fault divorce. Determining specific grounds for divorce aside from irreconcilable differences is not necessary. Fault is not a factor in property division or debt division. All community property (marital property) is divided equally among the parties.

For over 15 years, my family law firm has provided clients with the knowledge and support they need to navigate the legal process of separating. I am able to assist you with all family law issues that arise within the divorce, such as:

• Divorce settlement agreements
• Child custody and visitation
• Child support
• Spousal support/alimony
• Property division and debt allocation
• Domestic violence
• Other family law concerns

Changes to a Settlement Arrangements Moving Forward

Even after a divorce becomes final, changes in circumstances can require modifications to custody, parenting plans and support arrangements. From relocation or remarriage to significant changes in job pay due to promotions or the loss of a job, I help clients pursue equitable adjustments to a divorce decree.

Military Families Facing Special Custody Challenges and More

Whether you are stationed at the Fresno Air National Guard base, at another California military facility or elsewhere in the U.S., or anywhere overseas, I can ably assist you with a divorce here in central California. I understand the special circumstances military clients face in a separation. I can help protect your parental rights, particularly the rights for fathers deployed abroad, who are often at a disadvantage in a divorce anyway.
