For insights into family legal matters

While temporary support can follow local guideline calculators, permanent or long-term spousal support is where things get nuanced — judges consider over a dozen factors like the length of the marriage, each party’s earning capacity, and even the standard of living during the relationship.

⚖️ What’s more? Judges have broad discretion. That’s why skilled legal guidance matters.

At BJ Fadem & Associates, we help you understand your rights, and protect your future.

That’s right! Under California law, children 14 years or older can express their custody preferences—and the court must consider them if it's in the child’s best interest.

Their voice matters, but it’s just one part of the bigger picture. At Fadem Law, we make sure every custody case puts the child’s well-being first. 💙
