The Los Angeles, California, law firm of Garber & Garber, A.P.L.C. represents clients in the Los Angeles area, including Van Nuys, Long Beach, Pasadena, South Bay, Torrance, Norwalk, Hollywood, Beverly Hills and Santa Monica. Founded in 1951, we are a family law firm that also specializes in aggressive criminal defense. Above all, we are committed to providing the most thorough legal advice while advocating for your rights and protecting your best interests in all legal matters.
Community Property Division and Spousal Support
When it comes to negotiating the distribution of assets and debts in a divorce action, California follows a system of community property division of marital assets, which determines how family assets that were acquired during the marriage will be divided upon divorce. The key to a successful division of community property in your favor is the proper valuation and discovery of community property.
As Los Angeles property division lawyers for over 34 years, our attorneys can help you value your assets and home in an appropriate way to ensure you receive the greatest property interests in them as possible. We also have the resources needed to handle divisions involving closely held businesses, pension funds and Moore-Marsden home equity issues.
Our Los Angeles spousal support lawyers, who help people throughout the Los Angeles area, can advise you on what you can expect in the way of spousal support payments and help you determine the factors that best represent your interests before the divorce court. Fees can be saved with a favorable prenuptial or marital settlement agreement.
Child Custody, Visitation and Child Support
Child custody can be one of the most heated aspects of divorce, with both parents frequently contesting who is in the better position to have primary physical custody of a child. At Garber & Garber, A.P.L.C., we can advise you on how to present your best case for being awarded primary physical custody, legal custody and other considerations, as well as for matters of child support. We also represent clients seeking modifications of child custody, visitation or child support orders, parents who wish to take out-of-state trips with their children, and contempt orders to collect child or spousal support. We also defend against contemptment allegations.
In cases where paternity must be determined to establish visitation rights or child support obligations, our office prepares all necessary paperwork for requesting a paternity test from the court. After paternity is established, our attorneys can assist clients in moving forward to establish visitation or custody rights, or request child support payments.
Criminal Defense
Our practice also includes helping people who need aggressive criminal defense representation. We handle all types of felony charges, including charges for violent crimes such as murder (homicide), assault and battery, sex crimes, rape, child molestation, drug offenses, domestic violence, nursing home abuse, vandalism, stalking, terrorist threats, and other felony and misdemeanor charges. If you need a Los Angeles criminal defense lawyer, time is of the essence. We have over 40 years of criminal defense experience and our Los Angeles criminal defense lawyer knows how to protect your rights and your future.
