RATING ON GOOGLE
Kevin and team are highly motivated and passionate about what they do. Family law & divorce situations can be tiring and very stressful for all parties involved. The level of care and compassion they put into each individual case is bar none and truly what sets them apart. If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. If you or a family member have been contemplating divorce, I highly recommend reaching out to Kevin to see what he’s able to do for you.

Chris E.
This was my first time ever having to use a law office, and I consider myself very lucky to have hired Lauren Fair. She really showed that my best interest was top priority. She took the time to explain things clearly and to make sure I understood what was at stake and how to keep in mind the past, present, and future. I felt very comfortable speaking with her and never felt rushed. Her and her team (Jorah) were very quick to respond, polite, and professional. True class acts. I highly recommend her services. After the first counsel you’ll know and feel exactly what I am talking about.

Javier B.
Kevin and his team were excellent in helping with my family member's divorce.  He was extremely caring during a very sensitive time and explained everything thoroughly.  Him and his team handled the divorce timely and extremely efficiently.  I completely recommend Kevin and his team!

Understanding Child Custody

In California, custody of children consists of two parts: 
decision-making ability and parenting time.
SCHEDULE A CASE EVALUATION

Decision-making refers to which parent has the right to make major decisions in the lives of their children. California courts like to see the parents share joint decision-making for their children, although this is not appropriate in all cases. Joint decision-making would mean that parents have to agree on major decisions related to the children’s education, healthcare, and other major aspects of their lives. Joint decision-making arrangements require a collaborative effort between the parents. Decision-making is determined on a case-by-case basis, and in some situations, the court may award one parent sole decision-making for the children.

Decision-Making Ability

Parenting time, on the other hand, is where the children physically reside during the week/weekend, during summers and other major holidays. Parents can share equal parenting time or make alternate agreements. 

If the children are with one parent for a majority of the time, that parent is typically referred to as the “primary custodian,” or “primary parent.” If the parents cannot agree on parenting time, a judge will examine a set of factors related to the best interests of the children and determine parenting time accordingly.
