Divorce litigation
When a married couple decide to formally end the marriage relationship, they must file for divorce. California law has specific requirements that our firm can help walk you through so that you can end that relationship properly. At the time of divorce, all property obtained during the marriage by either party should be awarded to one person or the other. One reason to file for divorce is that in California a person cannot marry again without that first marriage being dissolved. One reason for hiring an attorney is to make sure ALL assets are divided properly and the marriage is properly ended. Our Firm is able to assist you in every aspect of a Divorce case, including Collaborative methods.

Property division litigation
Property division is an important consideration in every divorce even if you don’t always feel great about bringing it up. The court has the responsibility to fairly distribute the marital and non-marital property of the spouses. Marital property is generally any items acquired during the marriage. And no, it doesn’t matter whose name the property is titled in. On the other hand, non-marital property is pretty much everything that you owned before you got married. Keep in mind that a division of property does not necessarily have to be “equal”. Courts often make what may at first seem like an unequal distribution based upon the specific circumstances of the marriage. Several factors are taken into account here. Courts generally consider each spouse’s contributions to the marriage, both monetary and non-monetary. The ultimate goal is to arrive at a fair solution which takes into account the whole of the marriage.
Spousal support & alimony litigation
Alimony in a divorce or dissolution case is based primarily on two important factors: need and an ability to pay. But what does that mean? Well, California courts have the authority to grant alimony (spousal support) to either party in a divorce or dissolution. That alimony award could be either permanent or rehabilitative (temporary).Some statutory factors that a court can then consider in determining what, if anything, would be a fair alimony award.

ADOPTION
The process of legal adoption usually involves the termination of the parental rights of one or both biological parents. At the Law Office of Christopher C. Carter we provide legal services in the area of adoption. As such, we take no part in “arranging adoptions” or locating children for purposes of adoption. Our role instead is to represent one party to an adoption and seek to facilitate and expedite the legal adoption process.The most common type of private adoption (as opposed to an agency adoption) is a “step-parent” adoption, in which one spouse legally adopts the biological child of the other spouse. The parental rights of the other biological parent are then terminated. Corona adoption Lawyer Christopher C. Carter has helped many clients in this process.
ALIMONY/SPOUSAL SUPPORT

CHILD CUSTODY
The phrase “child custody” is sometimes mistaken to mean that the parent designated as the “custodial parent” enjoys greater rights than the “non-custodial parent.” In fact, a parent who is named the custodial parent in a parenting plan is designated as such for purposes of state laws other than the laws related to divorce or parenting plans. In the State of California, a child’s residential schedule and other parental rights and responsibilities are typically addressed in a court order called a “Parenting Plan,” which is determined by agreement or by the court, and usually with the guidance of a California State licensed divorce attorney or child custody lawyer. The court’s responsibility under the law is to ensure that the Parenting Plan arrangements serve the best interests of the child.

GRANDPARENT CUSTODY/HIGH-CONFLICT CHILD CUSTODY
In non-parental custody cases it is fairly typical to have increased restrictions on parental rights, as the court must find the parents unfit or unwilling to meet parental responsibilities in order to award custody of the child to the petitioner, is typically a family member, such as a grandparent. We also focus on high-conflict child custody cases, such as cases involving sexual abuse allegations, domestic violence, or drug or alcohol abuse where limitations on the parent/child relationship are being sought. These limitations can include no contact, limited contact, or supervised contact between parent and child. High-conflict child custody law is often highly complex, and it is critical that these cases be managed strategically from the very beginning.

Melanie is an amazing receptionist. She took her time explaining the ins and outs of what to expect while going through a divorce. She was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. She was encouraging, she listened to me and she eased my worries. An absolute pleasure to talk to and I feel so much better and prepared after our conversation.

Mr Carter is an excellent attorney. He and his staff are very knowledgable about all legal matters, and provide support to make the right decisions. They listen and treated me with respect. For my divorce case, I changed my attorny twice before I hired Mr. Carter to follow and get my case to a closure. I love the staff because they were always courtious and ready to help the minute I called or went to the office. All paperwork was ready and handled in a timely manner.

I have a particularly difficult case as I am out of state and have been forced to travel for the majority of the time I have been dealing with a divorce. Mr Carter and his staff have gone out of their way to make sure that I am continually informed, even when I’m on the road and am not proactively seeking information. They are thorough, polite and not just easy to talk to, but easy to understand as they boil down some fairly technical legal stipulations into language that I have been able to digest. One of their biggest strengths is reinforcing the objective decision making process and helping avoid falling into the trap of acting from emotion. Most legal situations aren’t easy, but having the backing of Carter Law has enabled me to understand the process and make the best decisions I can given the current set of circumstances. I truly appreciate their help and would encourage anyone reading this review to retain them if you are in need of legal assistance.

I am just now wrapping up a 4 year grueling divorce case. I had previous council that came highly recommended and had a matching fee schedule. Within a very short time I had burned through $10,000 of fees and had nothing in the way of results to show for it. After a short period of going it alone I was forced to retain council once again. I retained Chris Carter and I am very glad that I did.
