Child support cases are particularly challenging under California law. Up to 1/2 of a person's income can be set aside to meet child support obligations. Furthermore, the payments are made directly to the state of California, who then pays the individual. This system was established to reduce non-payment of child support and to make it easier for the state of California to take action against parents who skip child support payments. The process of calculating child support is very complicated. The courts use computer programs that take into account numerous factors in making a determination in child support matters.
Adequate representation in child support determination matters is important. You need an experienced lawyer to help you through the process. I have been serving clients in family law matters for over 32 years. I can help.
Whether part of a divorce or legal separation, determining how much time a parent gets to be with his or her children is a serious matter. The process can be traumatic and destructive for parents and children alike. Parents can easily lose sight of the damage that fighting over custody can do to their children. Attorney Dan G. Ryan can help the parties come to a reasonable agreement about custody and visitation.
In California, custody and visitation matters are subject to mandatory mediation. As a certified mediator myself, I am highly familiar with this process. I can help you work with the experts in the field, including psychologists, who can offer their expertise on the determination of custody and visitation arrangements.
Finding a plan that can work for you now, and in the future, is vital. Contact me by email or call 925-682-2848 or 925-674-3640 to schedule a free 1/2 hour consultation.
