Kiana represented me in my divorce and was fantastic. She’s tough when she needs to be, but is also easily approachable and capable of navigating very sensitive issues. There were some complicated issues in my divorce and I was impressed at her knowledge of the law and ability to explain it to me in simple terms. I highly recommend the firm if you have any family law needs.

I hired Adam Neufer with Moradi Saslaw Firm to help finalize my divorce and resolve the custody issues with my ex, and I cannot say enough good things about my experience with the firm or the care & professionalism I was treated with from Adam. He is an excellent lawyer, who treated my case with attentiveness and provided me with sound counsel, responded to my questions and emails very promptly, and successfully finalized my divorce outside of the court. I highly recommend Adam to anyone who is going through a divorce or needs legal counsel for a family law issue.

The Irvine divorce lawyers at Moradi Saslaw offer individualized attention and support throughout all types of divorces in California, including the following:
We wish all Irvine divorces were amicable to minimize distress on families, but contested divorces are more common in California. A contested divorce case means spouses cannot agree on one or more terms in the divorce, such as:
A contested divorce case in Irvine requires spouses to come to court with diligent, dedicated Irvine divorce attorneys litigating for their desired outcomes and rebutting arguments from the other side.
An uncontested divorce is one in which both spouses agree to all terms and draft their own divorce settlement agreement for asset distribution, child custody, and other aspects of divorce without the need to argue in court. An uncontested divorce case in Irvine is more amicable and saves time and expense, but still requires meticulous paperwork, strong negotiation skills, and experience navigating California’s legal system.
Domestic partnerships sometimes end, just as marriages. They also require similarly complex legal procedures for asset division and child custody. Contact an Irvine divorce attorney for help with legal navigation with your best interests in mind.
A collaborative divorce is one in which both parties agree to a series of meetings with their Irvine divorce attorneys to resolve issues and come to equitable divorce terms in a more peaceful and private manner through divorce mediation. Both spouses agree to keep their divorce out of the courtroom and public record and keep it between themselves and their Irvine divorce lawyers.
Many spouses in Irvine have high net worth. High-asset divorces involve complex forensic accounting in order to equally distribute marital assets and properly identify separate assets that remain exempt from division. Usually high asset divorces mostly involve property division.
Child custody is often the most heated aspect of divorce in Orange County. When spouses disagree about what living arrangement is best for their child, a judge must decide for them. Courts in California always make decisions in the child’s best interest. With a resolution-based approach to child custody, an experienced Irvine divorce attorney from Moradi Saslaw can help demonstrate that your goals for child custody are in the best interest of your child.
California courts acknowledge that every parent has the obligation to support their children. Child support orders serve to minimize the disruption to a child’s accustomed lifestyle. The state uses a child support calculation formula to determine the amount of support paid from one spouse to the other, but ultimately a judge may adjust the amount with good cause. The state’s formula for child support involves determining both parents’ total incomes and the amount of parenting time each parent has in the custody schedule.
Asset division is another hotly contested issue in divorces in Irvine and throughout the state. When spouses divorce, they must fully disclose their financial assets, separate marital assets from their separate property, and then equally distribute assets belonging to the marital “community.” This can be complex in any divorce, but especially in high-asset divorces with property division. An experienced divorce attorney in Irvine can accurately identify separate assets such as:
All assets and debts accumulated during the marriage are marital assets subject to equal division and distribution to both spouses, including:
The separation of marital and separate assets is rarely as straightforward as it seems. Married spouses purposely or unintentionally commingle many assets, giving one spouse a valid claim on a portion of assets the other believed to be theirs alone. For example, if one spouse gives the other access to an account or if one spouse invests time and/or money into property belonging to the other, they have a valid claim to a portion of the asset.
Temporary and permanent spousal support (alimony) orders are common in Irvine divorce cases. Your Irvine divorce lawyer from Moradi Saslaw Family Law Attorneys will guide you through your rights and obligations under California divorce law. Spousal support serves to bridge a gap in income between two divorcing spouses during the divorce process, and often going forward post-divorce until the lower-earning spouse becomes fully self-supporting.
