Why Should You Hire an Irvine Family Law Attorney?

Couples usually seek the assistance of Irvine family law attorneys during times of unique stress, whether that stress is caused by the breakdown of a marriage, a disagreement as to child custody, disputes over spousal support, or any other sensitive family issue. It is not strictly necessary to hire a family law attorney to handle any of these issues, but doing so can be advantageous to all parties involved. Family law attorneys are even more essential for high-net-worth couples due to the complexity of their holdings and the value of the assets involved. 

First and foremost, Irvine family law attorneys offer counsel and support to individuals who are undergoing emotional turmoil and can provide clearheaded advice when it is needed most. Family law attorneys also rely on their extensive experience to find creative solutions to seemingly intractable problems. While most couples may see a messy, drawn-out divorce as the only option for resolving their dispute, family law attorneys have a wide range of tools and resources available to them and may be able to resolve disputes less painfully. Finally, family law attorneys are experts on the law and procedures that govern the family court system, which the average person may find to be opaque and confusing. 

What Family Law Attorneys Do in Orange County

Family law attorneys are legal professionals who specialize in the law of family relationships, including marriage, divorce, child custody, and more. Because of the wide range of issues involved in family law, they wear many hats — from drafting agreements and contracts to mediating contentious disagreements between spouses to representing their clients in adversarial litigation proceedings. Some of the most common matters family law attorneys typically handle include: 

Divorces 

Each spouse in a divorce hires his or her own attorney who will advocate for his or her interests. The divorce process in California can be lengthy and complex, and typically involves extensive negotiations, and in some cases even court proceedings, to reach a resolution. Family law attorneys guide their clients through each step of this process. 

Spousal Support Agreements

If the circumstances of a divorce warrant spousal support, a family law attorney can help divorcing couples agree on the amount of duration of spousal support, taking into account complex factors such as the length of the marriage and the spouse’s income disparity, earning potential, and standard of living. 

Child Custody, Visitation, and Support Agreements

For divorces involving children, family law attorneys can help the couple arrive at agreements regarding child custody, visitation, and child support, each of which requires a complex analysis of the parties’ finances, the amount of time the child will spend with each party, and the best interests of the child.
