San Francisco Divorce Attorneys

At Bryan • Hinshaw, our San Francisco divorce lawyers and family law attorneys advise clients and handle matters throughout Northern California and the San Francisco Bay area. We have more than 40 years of experience handling the following family law matters, and providing each client with options and solutions tailored to issues unique to their case.

  • Dissolution of Marriage, Legal Separation, and Domestic Partnerships
  • Community Property Division and Valuation
  • Spousal Support and Alimony
  • Child Support and Child Custody
  • Pre-Nuptial Agreements
  • Post Nuptial Agreements
  • Domestic Violence
  • Paternity and Adoption Matters

Because family law matters are a potential breeding ground for intense and destructive conflict, we endeavor as divorce lawyers to conduct ourselves in a professional manner to minimize exacerbation of conflict. We encourage and assist our clients to set appropriate but firm boundaries in dealings with the other party, stay focused on practical priorities, and avoid self-defeating patterns in making choices among legal options.

When children are involved, we help our clients stay alert to the impact of the divorcing process and parental conflict on their children. Our approach is to help clients structure effective custodial arrangements that address the best interests of the children and provide for healthy and appropriate post-divorce co-parenting when possible.

In developing legal strategy, we are mindful of the need to be cost effective and to minimize the utilization of expensive legal processes. We maintain close communication with clients concerning legal expenses and endeavor to supply cost implications of alternative legal options.
