Experienced San Diego County Divorce Lawyer

Divorce law in California has some unique differences from other sates. We live in a very progressive state that tends to be at the forefront of many pioneering statutory initiatives. Divorce law is constantly changing, and it takes an experienced attorney to properly protect your interests.

At the San Diego, California, law firm of Anthony C. Starks, Attorney at Law, I put 25 years of California family law experience to work for my clients every day. I am also a certified specialist in family law as designated by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization.

Complete Understanding of California Divorce Law

One thing that has remained constant in California's divorce law is its well-placed concern for the welfare of the children of divorcing parents. Not only does the court want to see that the children are well cared for after the divorce has been finalized; it is equally concerned with the children's welfare during the divorce process.

I will do everything I can to help you reach a fair settlement in the most pain-free manner possible and work to obtain your settlement without the stress and conflict of a costly court proceeding. Mediation is also becoming a more popular alternative for reaching a settlement agreement.

Grandparents' Rights

In addition to the traditional matters of custody, support and property division, California law also includes provisions for grandparents' rights. The law allows grandparents to negotiate visitation time with their grandchildren.
