When you work with a divorce attorney from WGS Law, you’re gaining a legal advocate who understands California’s complex divorce laws.

Not all divorces end in conflict. However, during a contested divorce, you and your spouse may struggle to agree on critical issues — such as child custody, property division, or spousal support.

Hiring a divorce lawyer early on can make a major difference. Along with protecting your rights, an experienced divorce attorney helps safeguard your assets, finances, and future. Taking early action ensures you’re informed and better prepared, especially when your bank accounts or property are at risk.

You may also need to think about the safety and well-being of yourself, your children, or even your pets. In certain situations, a protective order or emergency court filings might be necessary. A skilled divorce lawyer can guide you through these sensitive steps.

At WGS Law, we’re here to help. Don’t wait too long to get the legal advice you deserve — contact our Redwood City divorce attorneys today for a consultation.

You must meet specific requirements before filing a petition for an uncontested divorce:

• One spouse needs to meet the residency requirements
• Both spouses must sign all required paperwork
• Both spouses need to agree on all related issues

You or your spouse must have lived in California for at least the last six months. One of you also needs to have been a resident of the county where you file the divorce petition for at least the last three months.

Both spouses need to sign all necessary paperwork and agree on all issues related to the dissolution of the marriage. We can review the paperwork, including the marital settlement agreement.

A marital settlement agreement includes the details of the issues that you agree on. During an uncontested divorce, you must agree on issues related to the division of assets and property. You also need to agree on child support, child custody, and spousal support.

If you cannot agree on all terms, you may need to file a divorce petition and initiate a contested divorce, which may result in a trial date. The team at WGS Law can represent you at trial and help increase your chances of receiving the outcome that you want. Whether your case is uncontested or requires litigation, a skilled divorce attorney can ensure your rights are protected at every step.

Along with uncontested and contested divorces, some marriages end with a default judgment. When one spouse files a divorce petition and the other fails to respond, the court may grant a default divorce without having to set a trial date. No matter the situation, we can help you understand your options and the potential outcomes.
