Receive Expert Legal Support for Your Divorce

At WGS Law, we understand that a divorce is not the most pleasant experience. We offer compassionate legal services to help ease some of the stress and anxiety of the situation. We can explain your options so that you can make informed decisions about your divorce.

Our services cover all aspects of family law, including divorce and child custody. You can depend on us for comprehensive representation or legal advice, depending on the level of service you require.

Of course, not all divorces end acrimoniously. During a contested divorce, you and your spouse may fail to agree on one or more issues, such as the division of assets or child custody.

Hiring an attorney early on is recommended. Along with protecting your rights, you may need to protect your assets and finances. Gathering the right information early on may protect your bank accounts.

You may also need to consider the safety and welfare of yourself, your children, and your pets. Depending on the situation, a personal protective order or other court filings may be in order. A divorce attorney can help you explore these options and more.

WGS Law is here to help. Do not wait too long to receive legal guidance, especially when facing a contested divorce. Get in touch with us today for a consultation.

You must meet specific requirements before filing a petition for an uncontested divorce:

• One spouse needs to meet the residency requirements
• Both spouses must sign all required paperwork
• Both spouses need to agree on all related issues

You or your spouse must have lived in California for at least the last six months. One of you also needs to have been a resident of the county where you file the divorce petition for at least the last three months.

Both spouses need to sign all necessary paperwork and agree on all issues related to the dissolution of the marriage. We can review the paperwork, including the marital settlement agreement.

A marital settlement agreement includes the details of the issues that you agree on. During an uncontested divorce, you must agree on issues related to the division of assets and property. You also need to agree on child support, child custody, and spousal support.

If you cannot agree on all terms, you may need to file a divorce petition and initiate a contested divorce, which may result in a trial date. The team at WGS Law can represent you at trial and help increase your chances of receiving the outcome that you want.

Along with uncontested and contested divorces, some marriages end with a default judgment. When one spouse files a divorce petition and the other fails to respond, the court may grant a default divorce without having to set a trial date. No matter the situation, we can help you understand your options and the potential outcomes.
