Commonly Asked Questions

What should I bring to my first consultation regarding family law?

It's helpful to bring any relevant documents such as marriage certificates, financial statements, custody agreements, and any correspondence related to your case. This will help your attorney understand your situation better.

How long does the family law process typically take?

The duration of family law cases can vary widely based on the complexity of the issues involved. Simple cases might resolve in a few months, while more complicated disputes, particularly those involving custody or significant assets, could take a year or more.

Are there alternative dispute resolution options available for family law cases?

Yes, alternatives like mediation and collaborative law can often help resolve disputes outside of court, which can save time and reduce stress for all parties involved.

  • Marital agreements. Obtaining a marital agreement with your spouse can strengthen your union and help you protect your assets. Our family lawyer in Bakersfield will work with your partner's representation to develop a comprehensive marital agreement tailored to your circumstances.
