California Legal Separation Lawyer

Mediation-Collaborative Divorce; Adoption – Joint Custody – Visitation – Alimony – Child Support

If you are contemplating a divorce or legal separation, it is advisable to consult with an experienced family law and divorce lawyer. Your situation is unique. You need an attorney who can give you personalized attention and handle your case on a timely basis. I am Jan Mark Dudman, attorney at law, and I have over 30 years of experience helping clients through divorces and legal separations. Contact the Law Office of Jan Mark Dudman, Attorney at Law, today to learn how we can use our experience to your advantage. 

In addition to traditional divorce litigation, my divorce law firm also has experience taking cases through alternative forms of dispute resolution such as Mediation and Collaborative Divorce. I recommend mediation or collaborative divorce as a cost-effective and efficient alternative to litigation. Both mediation and collaborative divorce aim to avoid lengthy, adversarial court battles costing clients time and money.

In the mediation process I act as a neutral mediator to help the spouses come to a complete agreement regarding custody/parenting plan, child support, spousal support, and division of assets and debts.

Collaborative divorce entails each party signing an agreement not to take the divorce to court. Along with their attorneys, both parties come together and meet with a team of financial and child psychological specialists to determine the best course of action in the division of assets and child custody and visitation.

My practice is focused on the following areas of family law:

  • Divorce, including mediation and collaborative divorce
  • Child Support
  • Child Custody, Visitation, Guardianships
  • Joint custody,
  • Spousal Support, Alimony
  • Pre-nuptial agreements and post-nuptial agreements
  • Paternity issues
  • Adoption (both minor and adult adoption)
  • Domestic violence
  • Restraining orders
  • Division of assets and debts

The benefits of mediation or collaborative divorce are that it: empowers couples to be in control, not the court system; targets solutions, reduces emotional distress, and provides a solid foundation for a post-divorce relationship when children are involved. Mediation and the collaborative process tend to significantly reduce the costs of divorce and provide a peaceful resolution of your divorce.
