    Divorce and legal separation can be a complex and emotional process. Our legal document assistants or legal document preparers can help you file the necessary paperwork, such as the petition for divorce or legal separation, and prepare the required forms to ensure that all California or Nevada legal requirements are met. We can also help you with the preparation of child custody and support agreements, property division, and spousal support orders.

    Child Custody and Support

    When it comes to child custody and support, it’s important to have a clear and enforceable agreement in place. Our legal document assistants or legal document preparers can help you draft and file custody and support agreements, as well as modification requests if needed. We can also assist you with establishing paternity and securing court orders for child support payments.

    Domestic Violence

    Domestic violence can be a serious issue that requires legal intervention. If you are a victim of domestic violence, our legal document assistants or legal document preparers can help you obtain restraining orders and protective orders to protect your safety and well-being.

    Frequently Asked Questions:

    • What is the difference between divorce and legal separation?
    • Divorce is the legal termination of a marriage, while legal separation is a court order that outlines the rights and responsibilities of each spouse while they live apart. In a divorce, the marriage is dissolved and both spouses are free to remarry, whereas in a legal separation, the spouses are still legally married but living separately.
    • How is child custody determined in California and Nevada?
    • Child custody is determined based on the best interests of the child. Factors that can be considered when determining custody include the child’s age, health, and relationship with each parent, as well as each parent’s ability to provide for the child’s physical, emotional, and educational needs. In some cases, the child may have a say in custody arrangements, depending on their age and maturity level. Custody can be awarded to one parent (sole custody) or shared between both parents (joint custody).
    • What is domestic violence and how can it be addressed?
    • Domestic violence is a pattern of behavior that involves physical, emotional, or sexual abuse by one partner against another in an intimate relationship. Domestic violence can be a criminal offense and is taken very seriously by the courts. Victims of domestic violence can seek protection through restraining orders or protective orders, which prohibit the abuser from contacting or coming near the victim.
