Family Law Attorney
After Divorce
We walk you through the process what to expect with Child Support, Spousal Support, and other factors of being divorced.
Child Custody Case
Parents want what is best for their children. However, in the stress and chaos of separation, this can be hard for parties to determine. In general, a mother and father of a child are equally entitled to custody. The key principle when determining custody is the child’s best interest.
Child Support Enforced
Unpaid child support may be garnished from wages, unemployment benefits, and other forms of income. The State can take more serious action if you fall behind on your child support payments, including renew your drivers license or passport, and in some situations, issuing criminal fines or jail time.
Child Support Establishing
In California, each parent is responsible for their child’s daily expenses when the child is in their care. Child support payments are used to even out discrepancies that arise when the child lives with one parent for a longer period, or when one parent earns substantially more than the other.

Family Law Practice
The attorneys at Cottle Keen Lopiccolo & Heyde have experience in a wide variety of family law matters. Family Law refers to legal disputes among family members, which can include divorce, child custody, child support, spousal support, adoption, and paternity.
Family Support
Joint Custody
There are two types of custody: legal and physical custody. Joint custody – both parents have joint physical custody and joint legal custody. Joint legal custody – both parents share the rights and the responsibility to make decisions relating to the health, education, and welfare of a child.

Legal Custody
“There are two types of custody: legal and physical custody. Legal custody allows a parent to make decisions about a child’s health, education, and welfare. Physical custody is the determination of which parent a child lives with. “
Legal Separation
Litigated Divorces
Sometimes it is not possible for parties to agree on the many issues necessary to obtain a dissolution. When parties disagree over the division of their property, custody and visitation, spousal support, and attorney’s fees, litigation will be required.
Marital Settlement
Spousal Support or Alimony is a nuanced area of law. We help you plan for a bright future after divorce.
Modification of Custody Orders
Child custody can almost always be modified. One way to modify custody orders is to agree with the other parent. It is important that any agreed-upon changes be memorialized in a formal written document signed by a Judge.
Modification of Support
If you lose your job, child support can be reduced or potentially lowered to zero. Child support payments cannot be changed unless you request a reduction. The attorneys at Cottle Keen Lopiccolo & Heyde can help you obtain a child support order tailored to your income.
Modifications Of Support
Parenting Arrangement
Parenting Plans
Parents are the best people to determine a parenting plan for their family. But parents may not agree to a parenting arrangement when they separate. If agreements cannot be reached, you will need to present evidence in Court on the best interest of your children.
Paternity Matters
Parents have the same custody and support rights to their children when they are unmarried. When a child is born during a marriage, it is legally presumed that the mother’s husband is the father. However, if the parents are unmarried, the paternity of the child must be established before support and

Summary Dissolution
Tax Preparation
Temporary Custody
Temporary custody orders, or pendent lite orders, provide short-term solutions to parenting disputes. Temporary orders are determined by filing a motion, called a Request of Order, which is heard during the pendency of a matter, rather than awaiting Trial at the end of the proceeding.

Trust Litigation
Uncontested Dissolution
Dissolutions can be completed by the submission of Judgment paperwork directly to the Court. Many divorces that begin contested resolve before trial when the parties find common ground. An attorney who is committed to achieving out-of-court resolutions is essential to this outcome.
Uncontested Divorces
In an uncontested divorce, each party has their own attorney who is also committed to the process of working together to arrive at a marital settlement agreement instead of going to court. This process only works when the parties trust each other and agree to compromise when they disagree.
Unpaid Child Support
Unpaid child support may be garnished from wages, unemployment benefits, and other forms of income. The State can take more serious action if you fall behind on your child support payments, including renew your drivers license or passport, and in some situations, issuing criminal fines or jail time.

Critical: ValueHired these 2 for a family trust lawsuit for my deceased grandfather and they came to arbitration and mediation negotiations very unprepared and ultimately led to my family losing the case. My family and I spent tens of thousands of dollars on Dana and Julie for a very disappointing effort by them. I would not recommend them.
