Case Study: An On-time Closing (Despite Surprise Title Issues)
Tracy and Kevin found a buyer for their home and they were excited to move on to the next stage of their lives.
During the title research process, however, their attorney found some unexpected issues involving an old mortgage that was not properly released and made it impossible for the purchaser’s bank to sign off on the loan.
Fortunately, Kevin’s real estate attorneys were able to do the necessary research and resolve the issues with the title in a matter of days.
The bank was satisfied and the closing was executed successfully and on time.
Tracy and Kevin are now enjoying their new home and are thankful that the lawyers handled everything, allowing them to stay calm and confident even when things looked like they could fall apart.
You never know what will arise during even a simple real estate transaction.
Call us to discuss how we can help you keep your peace of mind.
• Property division: A significant point of conflict in divorce cases involves the allocation of assets and liabilities between spouses. In California, issues concerning the division of property upon divorce are determined according to California community property rules. Generally, all community property is equally divided between spouses. To make sure your financial interests are not neglected during your divorce, you should turn to the professional legal advice of our family law attorneys.
• Child custody & visitation: When the parents of a minor-aged child get divorced, they must resolve questions regarding their respective rights and responsibilities as parents. When they cannot reach a compromise about the care and custody of their children, the court may issue custody and visitation orders to preserve or promote the child’s best interests. Depending on the circumstances, the parents may share joint physical or legal custody of the child. Sometimes awarding one parent sole physical or legal custody is the option that best serves the interests. Our legal team will guide you through complicated child custody and visitation matters that arise in your divorce.
• Child support: After the parents of a minor child get divorced, they will no longer live together. Therefore, each parent is legally obligated to provide adequate financial support to secure their child’s basic needs. Generally, each parent owes their child them same percentage of their financial resources as if they still lived together.
• Post-judgment modifications: At the conclusion of divorce proceedings, the court may issue its final judgment, including specific orders that remain in effect for years—such as spousal support, child custody, and child support orders. However, the circumstances relevant to those orders might change materially, disrupting the purpose such orders served. As a result, a party will be justified in trying to modify the terms of those orders in light of the changed circumstances. Our dedicated divorce lawyers can help you pursue or contest modifications of divorce terms to protect your interests.
• Mediation: Divorce proceedings often can be burdened by conflict, depending on the specifics of each case. Litigation risks escalating the conflict between divorcing spouses, potentially harming important family bonds. Mediation is a method of alternate dispute resolution that emphasizes cooperation and compromise with private settlement as the ultimate goal. Mediation can potentially save the parties from undergoing tremendous financial hardship and personal heartache.

Debunking Some Divorce Myths
Myth: Divorce is Always a Sign of Failure:
Reality: Divorce is a complex decision influenced by various factors. It doesn't necessarily indicate failure but can be a choice made for personal growth, happiness, or the well-being of all involved.
Myth: Divorce is Always a Bitter, Hostile Process:
Reality: While divorces can be emotionally charged, many couples pursue amicable and collaborative divorce processes. Mediation and alternative dispute resolution methods are increasingly common.

Reality: Couples can divorce even if they've shared happy moments. Sometimes, people grow apart, and priorities change, leading to a decision to part ways.
Myth: Divorce Always Results in Financial Ruin:
Reality: While divorce can have financial implications, it doesn't always lead to ruin. Proper planning, legal guidance, and financial management can help both parties navigate the process more effectively.

Reality: While second marriages face unique challenges, they are not predetermined to fail. Many second marriages are successful and fulfilling, with couples applying lessons learned from previous experiences.
Myth: Divorce is Easier for the Initiator:
Reality: Initiating divorce is often a difficult decision that comes with its own emotional challenges. The initiator may experience guilt, uncertainty, or sadness despite being the one to make the decision.

Curtis W.
Excellent personal service!
After consulting with a handful of other lawyers, I had little expectation my case would go well. They took little time listening to me and only seemed to focus only on bullet points and didn't want to hear anything else. I was being painted a bleak picture of what to expect for a outcome in my case. THEN I MET WITH ATTORNEY OLLENNU! Jeremiah took the time to hear what I had to say and used a lot of personal information I shared with him to earn us a favorable outcome in my case. He is a wonderful attorney and a great man. I highly recommend him! Best wishes, Curtis
