Every child support case in San Diego is unique.
Let us advocate for your rights to either receive the correct amount of support or pay the correct amount of support.
Perhaps one of the most black and white areas of family law, child support in San Diego is generally based on a statutory formula ("guideline support") and, therefore, can ultimately be a question of mathematics.
Like any area in Family Law, the parties can reach an agreement for a "non-guideline" number - a number that is either lower - or higher than what the state calculations would mandate.

A divorce (also called "dissolution of marriage" or "dissolution of domestic partnership") ends your marriage or domestic partnership.
Depending on the facts of your case, other issues may arise such as child custody, visitation, child support, spousal support, division of property, business valuations, or restraining orders.
Going through a divorce can be a stressful task for anyone, and a divorce is not reversible, unless one intends to re-marry the same party again.
Under the law, anyone in California is entitled to a divorce, as long as "irreconcilable differences" exist.

When two parties are not married and they have children, in order for the Court to make custody, visitation or support orders, paternity must be established.
If a child is not yet born, a Voluntary Declaration of Paternity can be signed.
Alternatively, if there is no agreement about parentage, the Court can order genetic testing.
It is important to recognize that each parent has rights that must be protected through the Court system; and that one party does not have unilateral final say.
In many cases, a party or parties may wait years to establish paternity either based on a fear of child support repercussions, or a good relationship between the parties.
