Best Divorce Lawyer Daly City Near Me

4worldlovers: I’ve been helping people solve problems and improve their lives since 2006. As a solo practitioner, I offer Family Law and Estate Planning services. In other words, I specialize in fresh starts and new beginnings.

Backed by years of experience and expertise, I can help you achieve:

Divorce—whether quick and peaceful or protracted and bruising—is painful enough without having to go through it alone. I can be your strongest advocate in child custody and support, spousal support, and asset division.

Make sure the people you love and the assets you’ve worked so hard to attain are protected. I can set up wills, trusts, Powers of Attorney, Advance Healthcare Directives, and other estate planning safeguards.

Feel overwhelmed by financial burdens? I can help you reclaim your life by exploring various options.

My firm is large enough to manage a dynamic caseload but small enough to provide individualized attention and impeccable customer service to our clients. We treat each case with the utmost importance and each client with unparalleled respect, compassion, and professionalism.

We take the time to listen to our clients and understand their situations, needs, and desires. From their first phone call to our office to the conclusion of their case, our clients feel supported and prioritized and have peace of mind during what can be an otherwise stressful time.

During your initial call to my office, my support staff will gather the pertinent facts relating to your situation and will schedule a consultation that works with your schedule. All current and prospective client meetings are currently held via Zoom video conferencing and/or telephone conference.

During our initial consultation, we will discuss your needs and desired outcome. I will carefully explain your options and recommend the best next steps to achieve your goals. Each client plan is customized to your special and unique needs and will provide the best legal strategies available to you. Once onboarded, our clients enjoy access to our secure portal where they can communicate with me and my team, upload documents, and get regular case updates.
