If you’re planning to file for divorce or have been served with divorce papers, you may be wondering:
- What does divorce mean for my children?
- What property rights do I have in divorce?
- As a mother who has worked outside the home before, am I still eligible for alimony?
- What if our children are still very young?
- As a stay-at-home mom, what if I need retraining to find a suitable job?

Factors that Complicate Divorce in California
As family lawyers serving San Jose, Morgan Hill, and Fremont, our firm often encounters obstacles that complicate a divorce, such as:
- Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements. If valid, prenuptial and postnuptial agreements can actually alter the law to be applied when deciding issues of the divorce.
- Military divorces. Military divorces pose their own challenges related to spousal benefits, which may not have vested.
- Domestic partnerships. Our firm negotiates dissolutions to domestic partnership agreements in Santa Clara County and Alameda County under the California Family Code.
- Interstate and international divorces. We deftly handle interstate and international divorces, which almost always involve jurisdictional disputes, especially when children are involved.
