Schank Family Law Practice Areas

We have many family law attorneys throughout California who focus on a variety of family law issues. Our California family lawyers know what it takes to fight for your rights, and we have the resources and experience it takes to win - we practically wrote the California practice guide on family law! Our many divorce and family law practice areas include:

Divorce & Legal Separation

The decision to divorce or legally separate is a difficult one to make. You need to make sure that you understand the basics of a divorce and why it is necessary for you to get a divorce attorney. When children are involved, the need for an attorney becomes significantly larger.

Mediation

Instead of choosing the slow, costly, emotional divorce process, consider mediation through our family law practice. Mediation allows you to save thousands in legal fees, preserve those fragile relationships, and create realistic compromises.

Pension Division

In a divorce or legal separation case, some people will need to keep their pensions, while others need to receive their fair share of the other's pension or retirement benefits. Our family law practice will make sure that you are informed about the pension division process.

Property Division

Property division can become complicated very early in the divorce process, especially when parties do not agree about debts, value, or division. In most cases, you will need a property division attorney to help with identification, characterization, disposition, and valuation of property.

Nuptial Agreements

Sometimes, you want to protect the valuable assets and income that you bring into marriage. In order to draft an agreement, make sure you are well informed about the processes, requirements and qualifications from an expert in family law and practice.
