Family Law Practice

The family law practice at Downey Brand consists of five attorneys who have expertise in sophisticated family law issues involving the following:

  • dissolution of marriage
  • legal separation
  • nullity
  • adoption
  • child custody
  • juvenile dependency law
  • prenuptial, postnuptial and cohabitation agreements
  • writs and appeals.

Our family law attorneys also have the backing of the firm's business department, which includes tax and estate planning experts — an important distinction between our family law practice and those found in many other law firms.
