How It Works

We prepare all required support forms based on the financial information and terms you provide. Every document is prepared at your specific direction.
Review & Filing
We review the documents with you and provide instructions for filing with the court. You remain in control of your case throughout.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is child support calculated in California?+
California uses a statewide guideline formula based on each parent's income, the amount of time each parent spends with the child, and certain deductions. We prepare the forms with the figures you provide. The court ultimately determines the support amount.
When does spousal support end?+
Spousal support duration depends on the length of the marriage and the terms of the agreement or court order. For marriages under 10 years, support typically lasts half the length of the marriage. For longer marriages, it may continue indefinitely. We prepare documents based on your specific agreement.
Can I modify support after the divorce is final?+
Yes. If there's a significant change in circumstances — job loss, income change, remarriage — you can request a modification. We prepare the modification documents at your direction.
