Most people filing for divorce expect the hard part to be the paperwork. It is usually the decisions underneath it: who the children live with, how community property gets divided, and what support looks like afterwards. A divorce attorney is there for those decisions, not only the filing.
Alejo Lugo has handled family law in Riverside County for over 20 years and can explain your rights and obligations before you agree to something you cannot easily undo.
The firm can take a divorce from the first filing through to the final decree, in English or Spanish, from offices in Riverside and Murrieta.
We Will Fight for a Fair Divorce Decree
The agreements and provisions contained in your divorce decree will affect your finances, your relationship with your kids, and your family’s future for many years to come. It is extremely important that your divorce decree is as fair as possible to all parties when it comes to important topics like:
- Division of Property
- Spousal Support
- Child Support
- Child Custody/Visitation
If you are handling your divorce in mediation or negotiations with your ex, the two of you can make your own agreements regarding these topics and then have your agreements approved by a judge to create the final divorce decree.
If your divorce is contested, you will have to go to court to have your case decided by a judge, who will then issue your divorce decree.
As your divorce lawyer, The Law Offices of Alejo Lugo & Associates can provide invaluable assistance in either situation. If you are pursuing mediation or negotiations, we can advise you of your rights and responsibilities so you don’t accidentally accept any unfair agreements. If your divorce is contested, we will work hard to prepare a superior courtroom presentation.
Do You Qualify for a Summary Divorce?
Some couples have very few issues to settle as part of their divorce, meaning the process can be completed faster. If you and your spouse have been married five years or less and have no children, no real estate, and no significant debts or assets, you could qualify for a summary divorce. This process is simpler and faster than a standard divorce. Ask us for more information.
