Practice Areas

Practice Areas Description

- Family Law

You do not have to face the stress and uncertainty of divorce or other family law challenges alone. You will need an effective guide, helping to educate you about the legal process and advising you of key issues which will affect you and the progress of your case. You should be able to rest assured that you have chosen an advocate who will aggressively and effectively pursue your goals on your behalf.


- Divorce

Divorce and related family law matters are among the most stressful occurrences a person faces. In spite of the overwhelming emotions, it is still necessary to make important and immediate decisions which will affect the outcome of your case. At the Law Offices of Lemkin, Barnes & Row, Inc., our aggressive Irvine divorce attorneys bring together decades of experience guiding people toward successful solutions. Our attorneys will aggressively pursue resolution of your matter in the most efficient manner possible, allowing you to focus on the next phase of your life.


- Uncontested Divorce

Not all divorces involve court battles where the couples fight over every issue. Often it is possible for parties to resolve all or portions of their matter without the need for court intervention. Without the appropriate legal support, however, an agreement may not be enforceable on its intended terms. Our attorneys will review a proposed agreement between parties, and make certain that the intended agreement becomes enforceable as a court order. We will also arrange for filing of the appropriate documents in order to allow the parties to avoid having to appear in court.


- Child Custody

Preservation of your relationship with your child or children is likely the most important aspect of your family law matter. In making the appropriate order for custody of your children, the court will look to factors such as maintenance of the status quo and the best interests of the children. In most cases, the court will strive to preserve an active role for both parents in their children's lives. The court will look at the way the family has been functioning as a guide for how future relations between the parents and children should be retained. Maintenance of a safe and secure status quo for the children can be a great source of emotional stability for them in a time of chaos and emotional uncertainty.


- Child Support

For separating parents with children, securing an appropriate child support amount is of great importance. In most families, following separation, there is no increase in income, but there is an increase in expenses as a single household splits into two. This reduction in funds creates challenges in making certain that children's needs are met.


- Alimony

Alimony, which is referred to in California as "spousal support," is not an automatic component of every divorce action in California. In order to determine whether or not an order for spousal support is appropriate in your matter, an experienced lawyer must perform a thorough analysis of the facts of your situation to determine how to best present a case for or against the implementation of a spousal support order.


- Property Division

he division of parties' assets and liabilities can be the cornerstone on which your next household is built. You and your spouse worked and accumulated assets and property during your marriage. Securing an order for the appropriate division of these assets will help you transition past this difficult period in your life. In marriages with significant assets, the division of property can be a very important segment of the divorce, and there may be unique factors to be addressed.


- Child Support Modification

Divorce agreements and orders are designed to establish not only the separation and disentanglement of the lives of the spouses, but also to govern their relationship in the future. In the future, however, circumstances may change, requiring the agreement or Judgment to be modified to meet the changing needs or demands of the parties. Life is not static, and circumstances change. If the circumstances on which the terms of your divorce were predicated have changed, it may be time to change the terms of your divorce.


- Domestic Violence

Whether it is the catalyst for a divorce or is a development within a divorce, domestic violence can not be tolerated. If you or your children are facing domestic violence in your home, and you need the protection of the courts, our attorneys can help you secure the emergency orders necessary to protect you. Likewise, if you believe your partner is seeking an unwarranted restraining order, we will aggressively defend you in order to allow you to avoid the significant ramifications of a domestic violence restraining order.


- Prenuptial Agreement

Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements can be used to achieve a range of goals, and their utility has become more apparent to an increasing array of people. Prenuptial and Postnuptial agreements are becoming more commonplace. For couples who are entering a marriage with significant or complicated ownership of assets, it may be beneficial to have a clear understanding of what will constitute the marital estate following marriage, rather than allowing the court to define it at a later point in the event of a divorce.


- Ex Parte Temporary Orders

In many cases, emergency situations arise, and there is a need for immediate action in order to obtain a court order. Such orders may preserve a community asset, establish child custody arrangements, or, in some cases, address financial needs and issues. Our attorneys will give your matter the immediate attention needed, in order to make certain that your legal position is not compromised. Our years of experience and familiarity with the court system allows for us to apply for and obtain the orders necessary for stabilization of the issues in your matter.
