Practice Areas Description

- Family Law

We believe that each case is unique with its own merits, hence the need for a strategic evaluation. Our law firm has focused on litigating and settling Family Law matters in the local courts since 1989. While Family Law matters can seem frustrating to the individual at the onset, our divorce and family law staff attempt to construct a positive outcome on each case.

- Child Protective Services

Generally under the Welfare and Institutions Code for the protection of Minors from general neglect, physical abuse, or sexual abuse, a Petition is filed by the Riverside County Department of Social Services and Child Protective Services (CPS). A social worker is appointed for investigation and generating of reports for the Juvenile Court. The minor is often detained by the Juvenile Court and Riverside County Department of Social Services.

- Collaborative Divorce

In every way possible, we support your desire to reach an out-of-court settlement in your Family law attorney who can facilitate negotiations between you and your spouse. Facilitating productive negotiations leading to resolution of tough custody/visitation and property division issues is our goal.

- Military Divorce

Divorce becomes even more difficult to manage when you need military divorce representation in California, and are serving in the armed forces in another state or another location, such as Iraq or Afghanistan. If you are considering modifying your child custody or support arrangements, or if you are considering divorce, but are out of California, email us for more information.

- Legal Separation

Many couples in California considering divorce are not prepared to sever all ties. For some, divorce is not appropriate for religious reasons, while others wish to retain health insurance for a spouse who is disabled or seriously ill. A formal legal separation will allow you and your spouse to lead separate lives without actually getting divorced. If you are legally separated, you are not free to remarry.

- Asset & Debt Division

Financial disputes are a part of many divorces, and achieving a fair division of marital assets and debts is often a serious challenge. Having an attorney you trust to guide you through negotiations or fight aggressively for you in court can prove essential to your financial future. At the Riverside, California, Law Offices of Richard K. Isles, we assist people in resolving all types of contested issues on the way to an acceptable division of marital assets.

- Alimony

The financial future that lies beyond your divorce is worth fighting for, and family law attorney Richard K. Isles has obtained favorable outcomes for many clients dealing with spousal support issues. Whether you believe you should receive spousal support as part of a divorce settlement, or you need to defend against unfair demands by your divorcing spouse, we can help.

- Lower Spousal Support

Spousal support is the term used for payments or transfers of money or assets from one spouse to another after a divorce. You may be more familiar with the word "alimony," or the term "maintenance", which are the same as "spousal support". The terms "spousal support," "alimony," and "maintenance" are often used interchangeably.

- Child Support

The majority of divorces result in child custody arrangements and overall settlements requiring the payment of child support. In some cases, a party may underestimate the impact of this factor in negotiating a settlement and planning for life after divorce. At our Riverside law offices, we offer in-depth knowledge of California family law, including child support guidelines and the valid reasons for deviating from them.

- Child Visitation

If you are facing divorce, a custody and visitation settlement that enables you to maintain the closest possible relationships with your children may well be your top priority. Our law office is dedicated to advocating for your parental rights. We encourage you to contact our San Bernardino Child Custody attorney for energetic, effective protection of your interests in any child custody matter.

- Joint Custody

If you are involved in custody litigation, it is important to know the courts are attempting to look at what is in the child's best interests. In the past, sole physical custody was often awarded traditionally to the mothers. The struggle for equal time-sharing became prominent in recent years with fathers' rights groups, while many women's groups became hostile to the concept.

- Grandparent Rights

Every family has a plan, and sometimes even the best plans change. It may be due to addiction to alcohol or drugs or sudden criminal activity. In any case, the parent who used to take care of a minor child is no longer able to do so, and a loving grandparent may choose to accept a new role as caregiver.

- Divorce Modification

Even when the outcome of your divorce is fair and equitable, you may need a family law attorney to help you when circumstances change later on. Richard K. Isles provides dependable counsel on all types of post-divorce modifications, and we encourage you to contact our divorce modifcation lawyers at our Riverside, California, law office to discuss your case.

- Adoption

Adoption Attorney Richard K. Isles realizes that the California Courts always consider the best interests of the children. He has represented numerous clients and provides years of experience in California Adoptions and Guardianship cases. If you or your family is considering filing for Adoption, or for Guardianship, contacting Family Law attorney Richard K. Isles for a complimentary phone consultation.

- Stepparent Adoptions

Stepparent Adoption Attorney Richard K. Isles provides legal counsel and representation to assist biological parents and would-be adoptive parents with all matters involved in stepparent adoption, including paternity actions and the termination of parental relationships. We also assist grandparents seeking to obtain permanent legal custody of their grandchildren through grandparent adoption.

- Guardianship

California law aims to keep parents and children together. If one parent becomes unfit due to drug or alcohol abuse or criminal activity, and can no longer adequately care for the minor, the court may appoint a person to act as legal guardian of a child. Every child or minor must have an adult who is responsible for the child.

- Child Relocation Issues

A divorced parent's desire to move out of California — or any distance that impacts existing family law orders — can be a complex legal issue. Having physical custody alone does not entitle a parent to relocate children against the wishes of the other parent. For dependable counsel and representation in your parental relocation case, contact our Riverside, California, law offices.

- Domestic Violence

Any situation involving spousal abuse or other domestic violence must be taken very seriously. Delays in taking action may result in tragic outcomes. Whether you need rapid, effective legal representation to protect yourself and your family, or you are facing allegations of domestic violence, please contact the domestic violence law offices of Richard K. Isles.

- Paternity

Just imagine what it will be like to wake up in the morning and know your child is safe, in your custody. Let alone being able to take your child to visit grandparents and interact with the family. Your life will change because you have finally achieved your goal- to get your child into your life and to be part of the decision making in your child's life.

- False Molestation Charges

Across the state of California, the family law courts are seeing an increase in the last several years, concerning the charge of molestation of a child in a custody dispute. Often these charges are made falsely. The impact of an alleged abuse can be major in child custody litigation. County officials named Child Protective Services usually undertake an investigation.

- Fathers' Rights

The courts are always looking out for the best interest of your children in a divorce or Paternity action. If you are a father initiating a family law case, you should be recognized as a very important figure in your child's eyes. The courts recognize this fact when our law firm takes active steps towards protecting fathers' rights in the Family Court.
