Child Custody and Move Away

The initial divorce process must be managed with wisdom, strategy, and fairness. If not handled properly your divorce can spin out of control and any knee-jerk actions or reactions can affect custody orders.

Additionally, inappropriate or ill thought-out strategies can result in paying more than you can afford or receiving less than you need. Learn more about child custody.

“Big firms, with even bigger bills” is no an exaggeration.
Consider this quote from a bar association meeting in September of 2002 by Los Angeles Superior Court, then-presiding family law judge, Aviva Bobb. “By the time we see [divorce] cases in court, most people have spent all their community assets on the divorce itself.”

According to Presiding California Family Law Judge, Marjorie Steinberg in the Los Angeles Times Magazine from May 4, 2008 – If a couple can get a divorce for $100,000 in Los Angeles, Judge Steinberg considers that “pretty cheap.”
