Whether or not you have children or own real estate, it's always a good idea to secure quality legal representation when getting a divorce. California is a community property state, and this means that community property is assumed to be divided 50/50 between the spouses. If you do own real estate then you and your spouse will have to decide what to do with the house, and this is only the beginning. If you have children you and your spouse will be required to draw up a sound and workable parenting plan that will clearly define where the children will live and how holidays, vacations and special occasions such as birthdays will be divided. Child support, visitation and spousal support will need to be addressed as well.
If you are a victim of domestic violence or if your children are victims of child abuse, it may necessary to obtain a restraining order against your spouse. Depending upon the circumstances of your case, any presence of spousal or child abuse may have a definite impact on your divorce proceedings; therefore, it is critical that you seek professional legal help with this issue right away. If you are being wrongfully accused of domestic violence, it's important that you speak with an attorney as well. If your spouse has tried to get a restraining order against you under false pretenses, then it could ultimately put you in a very bad situation and you need a seasoned attorney to provide you with aggressive legal representation in the matter as the outcome can affect your child custody arrangement.
