Los Angeles - Pasadena Domestic Partnership Lawyer
Domestic partnerships in California are treated similar to traditional marriages, and as such, are subject to many of the same rules. Much like a divorce, when domestic partnerships end, there are many issues that need to be resolved including division of community property, child custody, child support and spousal support.
The law in domestic partnership cases does, however, have some nuances and it is important to have an advocate who understands the law, and how to protect your rights. Mark B. Baer has been practicing family law in the Los Angeles area since 1991.
Understanding the Law to Protect Your Interests
The main differences between dissolution of domestic partnerships and dissolution of marriages are the result of the fact that domestic partnerships are not currently recognized under federal law. This is important to note because it impacts the support calculations and the manner in which property can be divided.
Mr. Baer understands the stress and anxiety that comes with ending a domestic partnership. He is committed to helping you get through the process in an efficient and cost-effective manner. He is a skilled negotiator and will work diligently to resolve your case without a costly and lengthy court proceeding. If it is necessary to go to court, however, you can count on him to fight aggressively to protect your interests.
