Rialto Family Lawyer

A Rialto family lawyer from the Law Office of Laurence J. Brock can become your advocate when facing a difficult legal situation involving family law. Given the importance of your family, your children, and your future, we’ll handle your case with the utmost care and give you the best chance for a successful outcome to your case.

How a Family Attorney Can Assist You

You can retain a family lawyer to represent you in and out of court any time you have an issue that will either go before a family court judge or need to be negotiated with an opposing family lawyer. Some examples include all of the following:

Requesting supervised visitation after a parent is believed to have been negligent toward his or her children
Situations involving child abuse
Proving paternity and legally establishing parentage
Help with reobtaining custody of your children if they were taken by child services
Emancipation of a minor
Help with an adoption
And more

Separations and Divorces

If you are separating or divorcing from your spouse, a Rialto family lawyer can prepare the paperwork, help with asset and debt division, create a proposed parenting plan, and represent your interests in court. Remember that a judge will make the ultimate decision on whether to accept your proposed plan or your ex’s.

This makes it critical for you to go to court prepared and with the evidence to support why your requests are the fairest and most appropriate. If you do not have evidence or a well-developed argument, the court may rule against you.

Changes to Custody Arrangements

If you are in a custody situation that is either too difficult to maintain or is unfair for your child, a Rialto family lawyer from our office can help develop and present an alternative plan.

We will then need to gather documents and build a case demonstrating why the changes should be made. By presenting the court with clear reasoning and evidence supporting why the change is in the best interest of your child, a judge may be willing to approve the changes. Some examples are as follows:

Demonstrating your ability to provide additional care for your child
Showing how the current custody arrangement is causing undue stress to your child
Making a convincing argument for how the benefits of changing the custody arrangement would have a positive impact on your child’s quality of life

Get Your Child Back

If you are in a situation where your child was taken from you, you can fight to regain custody. These situations are complex and require a great deal of time and documentation. Your Rialto family lawyer will help you through the process and to an accommodation of some kind:

Supervised visitation
Joint custody
Reinstatement of your parental rights

Schedule Your Consultation

When it comes to issues of family law, you need to act immediately, especially if the other party has already retained an attorney. Without a Rialto family lawyer to advise you, you could be putting your relationship to your family at risk.
