Divorce

Going through a divorce is stressful, depressing and confusing. You feel insecure and vulnerable. If children are involved, you are worried about their well-being, custody, and visitation. If you shared assets and property with your spouse, there are a lot of things to decide and divide. In such terrifying and stressful circumstances, you need the help of an empathetic person who can guide you through the process and provide you qualified assistance on the matters of legal importance. A divorce is finalized by the court, so the litigation and lawyers are almost inevitable. At the Law Office of David S. Chesley, we have a team of Family Law Specialists that have earned their reputation through thirty years of courtroom experience, additional tests and degrees in family law, and by receiving praises from both clients and judges.

We understand that our clients are going through a tough time and we try our best to make the process easier and tangible for them. Along with proving the best legal advice and representing them in the court, we extend full support to our client during the tough times. As divorces are not just emotionally taxing, but are also becoming costly matters, we have a consultation fee structure that suits our clients and matches their financial circumstances. We collaborate with our client and the other spouse to find the peaceful and least damaging solutions to resolve the conflict. We also try to find long-term solutions of children custody, property and debts instead of looking for short-term fixes. With successful resolution of disputes and conflicts for good, our clients enjoy peace of mind in the future.

It is difficult for people to cope with the emotional and mental woes of divorce while also taking care of the legal matters at hand. It is particularly difficult in the contested divorces or divorce due to the fault of a spouse as these involve serious personal attacks. Intimate and personal details of a family are often exposed to the public. In such situations, we stand by the side of our client and give them the best advice to deal with matters at hand.

We are specifically qualified and trained in dealing with divorces involving children custody and are abundantly experienced in equitable property division among spouses. We have complete information about filing divorce, aggressively fighting for the spousal rights in the court, and finalizing documentation. Therefore, we provide full coverage of the divorce process.

If you want to file a divorce, you can call us any time of the day or reach us through contact us form.

Unlike a co-defendant represented by another firm who pled to a felony conviction with a "strike," our legal team pursued a different strategy. Through the submission of a comprehensive mitigation package to the District Attorney, we successfully negotiated a complete dismissal of all charges.
  • Our client faced serious charges under Penal Code section 211 for alleged felony robbery involving force and fear in Riverside County (Murrieta Court) .

Despite the severity of these allegations, our legal team successfully demonstrated insufficient evidence during the preliminary hearing. As a result, all charges were dismissed.
