Palm Springs Family Law and Divorce
You Need a Compassionate and Experienced Family Law Attorney
If you have separated from your spouse or domestic partner, need assistance with issues involving children, spousal support, or the division of community property and debts, and want to protect your separate property assets, we can assist you.
The experience of relationship break up is one of the most complicated and traumatic of crises that people face. With U.S. Census Bureau estimates that half of first marriages and 62% of second marriages end in divorce, it is also one of the most common. Feelings of fear, helplessness, and exhaustion are normal. The failure to skillfully manage these feelings and to apply a solution's focused approach to resolving family law disputes may impede a person's well-being and functioning for a long time.
We will guide you through your family law conflicts in a sensitive and holistic fashion. We approach our clients' matters with candor and honest evaluations. The strategies we recommend are balanced, humanistic and efficient. Because those needing the assistance of family lawyers are good people facing the worst of circumstances, we do not pander to the emotional reactivity that naturally arises along with these experiences.
We offer you a unique and powerful ally to aid you through this transition. Whether negotiating a settlement or conducting litigation, we explain the terrain to you, inform your choices, and we ground the process. Our intention is to resolve your matter with a tone that leaves room for you to one day dance with your former partner at a child's wedding. We know that this one day will be your desire as well.
