Focusing on Family Law Solutions in California
Divorce. Child custody. Paternity disputes. These are among the most emotionally and psychologically intense experiences anyone can go through. When all is said and done, your life is going to change based on the decisions you make during the legal process. This is why it is particularly important to take the right approach.
For some families, traditional litigation is best. For others, mediation or collaborative law offer welcome alternatives. At the Law and Mediation Offices of Maureen Stubbs, we have more than 30 years of experience helping California clients reach positive family law solutions. We will listen to your needs and guide you through the legal process that is right for your family.
Exploring All of Your Options
Whether you are ending a marriage, fighting to enforce a child custody order or struggling with another family law issue, we will work with you to decide which approach is best for your family:
- Traditional litigation — Sometimes, there are so many bad feelings between the parties that they are not able to come together to reach a positive agreement. Going to court allows both people to argue their cases before a judge who will make the final ruling.
- Mediation — When you and the other party are able to have open, honest discussions about your dispute, mediation may be the way to go. Attorney Maureen Stubbs will act as a neutral mediator, helping both of you consider each other's interest to make an agreement that meets everyone's needs.
- Collaborative law — If you want the security of having a lawyer protect your rights but are comfortable negotiating with the other party to come to an agreement, collaborative law may be right for your situation. Everyone agrees to resolve the dispute outside of the courtroom, and we work as a team to find common ground.
Family law conflicts are never cut and dry. There is no one approach that meets every clients' needs. At the Law and Mediation Offices of Maureen Stubbs, we have dedicated our practice to acknowledging every family's unique situation and tailoring our representation to each client.
