San Jose Child Custody and Visitation Attorney
When you are going through a divorce or are contemplating ending your marriage, questions about your children are usually foremost in your mind. You may be wondering:
- Will I be able to keep the children?
- How will the court determine custody?
- What is the difference between legal custody and physical custody? What does legal custody allow you to do?
- What kind of visitation is best for my family?
- Does my spouse have a right to see the children (if, for example, he or she was abusive)?

In my family law practice, I handle all matters related child custody, visitation and child support. I will represent you in emergency screenings, assessments and hearings to obtain restraining orders, if necessary. I also advise family law clients in matters involving paternity.
I will represent your interests at any stage of a custody or visitation dispute, from the initial filing of a divorce complaint to post-judgment requests for a change in custody or visitation. I am equally comfortable advocating for you at trial or in negotiations-whatever method will yield the best result for you.
