A divorce lawyer represents you through the legal process of ending a marriage in California. That process involves far more than filing paperwork. Our attorney handles property division, addresses custody and visitation if children are involved, calculates or challenges support obligations, and manages negotiations or court appearances on your behalf. In Victorville, CA, divorce cases are filed through the San Bernardino County Superior Court system, and working with an attorney who understands the local procedures and filing requirements can make a meaningful difference in how your case moves forward.
California is a no-fault divorce state, which means neither spouse needs to prove wrongdoing to end the marriage. The most common ground cited is irreconcilable differences. But “no-fault” does not mean “no conflict.” Disputes over who keeps the house, how retirement accounts get divided, or what custody arrangement serves the children’s best interests can turn even an initially amicable split into a drawn-out legal matter. A divorce attorney in Victorville, CA works to protect your rights and your interests throughout that process, whether the case settles at mediation or proceeds to trial.
No two divorces look the same. Some are straightforward. Others get complicated fast — especially when money, property, or kids are involved. Whatever your situation looks like, here’s how we can help.
Christian Schank founded Schank Family Law and has been licensed with the California State Bar since 2003. He earned his Juris Doctor from the University of La Verne College of Law and holds an AV Preeminent rating from Martindale-Hubbell, the highest peer review designation available to any attorney. He has also maintained Lead Counsel Verified status in family law since 2015. Before passing the bar, Christian spent years working in law firm management starting in 1998. That background shapes how the firm operates today, from case strategy down to how we communicate with clients through each phase of their divorce. We represent individuals on either side of a dissolution filing in Victorville, CA and throughout the High Desert region.
Whether a case involves a contested or uncontested divorce, our firm handles the full scope of issues that arise during a dissolution. That includes child custody arrangements, support calculations, property division, and spousal support disputes. Some of these matters resolve through negotiation. Others go to hearing. We prepare for both from the start, because a case that seems straightforward on day one can change direction quickly once financial disclosures come in or custody disagreements surface.
Our firm has secured a temporary spousal support award exceeding $60,000 per month in a high-income dissolution case. We have also handled divorces involving professional athletes and business owners earning seven figures annually, navigating asset structures that spanned multiple states and international borders. Cases at that level demand aggressive discovery, detailed financial disclosure, and preparation for trial if settlement negotiations stall. Not every divorce attorney in Victorville has handled cases with that degree of complexity, and the skills required for high-stakes dissolutions carry over into every case we take on.

I cannot thank Schank Family Law and my attorney, Vanessa Estrada, enough for everything they did for me and my daughter. After a long and difficult custody battle, we achieved a successful outcome, and I truly believe Vanessa’s dedication, knowledge, and hard work played a major role in that victory. From day one, Vanessa genuinely cared about my case. She took the time to understand every detail, remembered every situation, and always made me feel like my case mattered. Her professionalism, preparation, and knowledge of family law gave me confidence throughout one of the most stressful times of my life. What impressed me most was how hard she fought. She never gave up, stayed focused on what was in my child’s best interest, and stood by me every step of the way. Whenever I had questions or concerns, she was responsive, honest, and always prepared. If you’re looking for an attorney who truly cares about her clients, is extremely knowledgeable, and will fight for you until the very end, I highly recommend Vanessa Estrada and Schank Family Law. Thank you, Vanessa, for helping me secure a better future for my daughter and for being such a strong advocate during this journey. I will always be grateful. ❤️Posted on GoogleAsh M
