Experienced Family Law Attorney

Despite a couple’s best efforts, nobody ever enters into a marriage thinking that things won’t work out. But over time, life changes. Spouses can change. It’s unfortunate, but today, about 50 percent of all marriages end in divorce.   Some end amicably, but others end after many legal battles. In a situation like this, you don’t want to be the spouse that gets caught on the short end that could cost you thousands of dollars and limited visitation rights with your children. You should not end up paying an unfair amount of spousal support while you lose more than your fair share of property acquired during the marriage.

To protect your rights, it is imperative that you seek the counsel of an experienced family law attorney such as Robert B. Treister. At a time when emotions may overtake you and you may not be thinking things through clearly, you need someone on your side to defend your rights as you work through many issues.

Aside from providing legal advice gained through three decades as an attorney, Mr. Treister can also put your mind at ease so that you are better equipped to act rationally. This is especially important for several reasons. Since his approach is logical and reflects how current laws work in California, you are less likely to have surprises since Mr. Treister’s actions will be in line with how the courts approach family law issues as well.

The Law Office of Robert B. Treister is well versed in a variety of family law matters; including child custody issues, property settlements, tax concerns, contested and uncontested divorces, spousal support, and retirement account issues, among others.

While some people may balk at hiring a family law attorney due to potential costs, in many instances, Mr. Treister may actually save clients money. Instead of incurring costly legal bills with a prolonged court battle, Mr. Treister can serve as a mediator for a divorcing couple. Finding common ground before going to court makes sense for many couples and relieves them of being put at the mercy of the court, where a judge may or may not give each person what they really want. Finding that compromise is an important part in resolving legal issues between a divorcing couple that will allow them to start healing and moving on with their lives. 

The Law Office of Robert B. Treister serves clients in Cerritos, Bellflower, Norwalk, Lakewood, Long Beach, La Palma and surrounding Southern California cities.
