Questions
How does child custody mediation work in California?
California requires mediation for contested custody cases. A neutral mediator helps parents create parenting plans focusing on children's best interests. Agreements reached in mediation become court orders.
What factors determine child support amounts?
California uses income, custody time-sharing, and tax deductions in calculations. Courts may adjust amounts based on children's specific needs or parents' financial circumstances.
How are business assets divided in divorce?
Forensic accountants value businesses to determine community vs. separate property. Courts consider ownership duration, growth during marriage, and tax implications when dividing business assets.
Can custody arrangements be modified after divorce?
Yes, custody orders can be modified with significant changes in circumstances affecting children's welfare. Common reasons include relocation, changed work schedules, or children's evolving needs.
What protections exist for domestic violence victims?
Victims can obtain emergency protective orders and pursue criminal charges. Courts prioritize safety when determining custody and visitation arrangements following domestic violence allegations.
