At the law offices of Torrence L Howell, we can provide expert counsel and representation for just about any issue you may encounter related to family law in Upland CA. We’ve seen it all before, so matter how strange and dysfunctional you think your family situation is, we won’t be shocked. Instead, we will help you move forward in a calm and professional manner. With our help, you can use the protections of the law to make sure that you and your kids are taken care of properly as you work through your family issues. Here’s a sampling of the types of family law cases we handle.

Divorce Cases: We can make sure that your interests are protected during your contested or uncontested divorce proceedings. Our services include filing the actual divorce papers on your behalf, as well as assisting with child support agreements, child custody agreements, spousal support agreements, restraining orders, and equitable division of marital assets as needed.

Child Custody Cases: We can help parents draft custody agreements that always keep the child’s best interests top of mind. If you’re dealing with an unfit parent, we can help you secure sole custody and arrange for supervised visitation rights if appropriate. If you were previously deemed unfit, we can help you prove that you’ve cleaned up your act and convince a judge to grant you increased visitation rights.

Child Support and Alimony Cases: After divorce, a spouse who was not working may find themselves without the ability to support themselves or their kids. The law offices of Torrence L Howell can help families arrive at agreements that are fair to all parties and adequately provide for the care and support of any children. We can help with permanent, transitional, rehabilitative, or temporary alimony, as well as with child support agreements and child support modifications.

Domestic Violence Cases: Over our many years practicing family law in Upland CA, we’ve seen both sides of domestic violence cases. We can help abused spouses get the restraining orders and other protections they need, but we can also help expose false accusations of abuse to ensure that no one’s rights are trampled by being unfairly saddled with a reputation as an abuser.

Property Rights: California is a community property state, but this doesn’t necessarily mean that all assets should be split 50-50 during a divorce. As experts in family law in Upland CA, we can help you figure out which assets rightfully belong to which spouse and ensure a fair division of marital property under state law.
