In California, Divorces are “no fault,” making it relatively easy to obtain a divorce from the Court based solely on a showing of “irreconcilable differences.”    Additionally, parties who no longer wish to live together as husband and wife can also choose to file for Legal Separation, rather than for Dissolution of Marriage.  Legal Separation is a legal construct that provides the same financial and custodial options as dissolution, but without the granting of a divorce.  In actuality, the Dissolution or Legal Separation portion of your case will be the easiest and least time consuming part.  Instead, most of our shared time and efforts will be spent on issues of child custody, child support, spousal support, domestic violence, and the division of property.  All of these topics will be discussed below.
