Areas of Practice
Domestic Violence and Restraining Orders
Unfortunately, California has one of the highest rates of domestic violence in the country. Victims of domestic abuse are often intimidated by their aggressor and therefore, choose to keep quiet. At Okhovat Law Group, we make it a priority to be compassionate to those who have suffered and we fight aggressively to protect the rights and safety of domestic violence victims. In some atypical instances however, it is best for victims of violence to seek a domestic violence restraining order which, will provide the victim necessary safety and peace of mind to calmly and logically make decisions regarding the fate of his/her relationship with the aggressor.
Family Law
We realize that separation and divorce can have serious and lasting effects on a person’s finances, family and psyche. As such, it is our number one priority to ameliorate such effects and make the process as rapid and painless as possible. In doing so, we utilize techniques that are not only conducive to a quick and beneficial outcome, but also in line with our clients’ resources and emotional state.
Often, it is the client’s intention to quickly and efficiently settle his/her case outside of the courtroom. Where such is the goal and the circumstances allow, Okhovat Law Group will negotiate the client’s behalf to reach the best possible income. Where settlement is not possible Okhovat Law Group will zealously and aggressively advocate on behalf of the client.
Spousal Support
The way people consume entertainment is constantly in flux, so the laws must adapt quickly. We strive to anticipate these changes so you can focus more on creating a performance of a lifetime.
The courts often award spousal support to the party who has not worked or earned less financially. This is done in order to maintain the lifestyle to which the supported party has become accustomed. In cases where the length of the marriage is less than ten years spousal support is usually awarded on a monthly basis for a prior equal to half the length of the marriage. For example, if a marriage lasted eight years one party will be ordered to pay spousal support every month for the period of four years.
However, in cases where the length of the marriage exceeded ten years, upon a successful demonstration of the supported party’s need to receive spousal support and the supporting party’s ability to pay said support a court may order lifetime spousal support
Child and Custody Support
Okhovat Law Group passionately and zealously handles cases were child support and custody are at issue. Absent an agreement by the parties, the custody of a minor child is determined by the court. In deterging the ideal plan, the court looks at what is in the best interest of the child. On the other hand, the amount of child support is based on various factors such as, the percentage of the custody belonging to each parent, the age of the minor child, the ability of the supporting party to pay child support and the need of the supported party to receive support.
“We must all obey the great law of change. It is the most powerful law of nature.”
