Carefully Guiding You Through the Divorce Process
Divorce is an emotional and stressful experience. When you hire a lawyer to represent you in a divorce case, you are looking for someone who not only knows the law but also understands what you are going through and is committed to helping you achieve a positive outcome.
At the Law Offices of Susan H. Witting, we offer honest assessments, compassionate representation, creative resolutions and zealous advocacy. Thousand Oaks divorce attorney Susan H. Witting is a certified family law attorney with more than 25 years of experience.
Keeping Your Options Open for Resolving Difficult Issues
Before you can get divorced in California, the community property of the marriage must be divided. If you have children, child custody and child support will need to be addressed. Spousal support may also be appropriate. These important issues can be resolved in several ways:
- Negotiation: If you and your spouse do not see eye to eye on every issue, you may still be able to reach a resolution through negotiations. Ms. Witting can help you negotiate your divorce by explaining your options and identifying opportunities for agreement.
- Mediation: In divorce mediation, a neutral mediator helps the parties — who may or may not be represented by their own attorneys — resolve the issues in dispute. Ms. Witting can serve as a mediator or advise you as you go through divorce mediation.
- Litigation: If the issues cannot be resolved any other way, a divorce case will go before a judge for his or her decision. In litigation, it is very important to be represented by a lawyer who will present evidence on your behalf and argue for your desired outcome.
It is important to keep all of these options open until your divorce is resolved. If you choose our firm to handle your case, we will ensure that all of the necessary legal procedures are followed, obtain temporary orders if necessary, and explore all options for resolving your case.
We are highly experienced at dealing with all types of issues that may arise during the divorce process, including complex asset division, military divorce and domestic violence.
