Ever wondered when a child can have a say in custody arrangements in California?

California courts consider a child's preference when they reach a certain age and maturity level. While there's no set age, typically around 12-14, their input starts to carry weight. However, the final decision remains with the court, prioritizing the child's best interests. While a child's wishes are considered, they're just one piece of the puzzle.

Navigating custody issues? Our legal team can provide guidance tailored to your family's unique situation. Let's work together to ensure your child's voice is heard while protecting their well-being.

Ever wondered if you can terminate your marital status before a divorce is finalized? The answer is yes! In California, parties can request a bifurcation to terminate their marital status while the other issues of the divorce, like property division and support, are resolved. This can be particularly beneficial for tax or estate planning reasons, allowing individuals to move on with their lives sooner.

Our experienced legal team can guide you through this process, ensuring your rights and interests are protected. Contact us today to learn more about bifurcation and how it could benefit your divorce proceedings.
