California Family Law Attorney Helping You Achieve Stability

Full-service family law firm in Modesto

Whether you are anticipating experiencing the frustrations of marital conflict or have disputes about your children, the Law Office of Curtis D. Colaw can help. I provide legal services in all areas of family law:

Alimony / spousal support
Child custody and visitation
Child support
Divorce / dissolution
Mediation / Custody counseling
Pre- and postnuptial agreements

Alimony / spousal support

Divorce should not lead to a financial crisis. I can help you establish an equitable amount of spousal support or defend you from excessive requests for spousal support.

Child custody and visitation

I protect your parental rights to raise your children in an appropriate and supportive home.

Child support

I can ensure that you receive or pay an equitable amount of the financial support required to raise your children in a healthy, happy environment.

Child support modification and enforcement

Child support payments do not change unless the court modifies the child support order. If either the custodial or the noncustodial parent experiences a significant change in circumstances, I can guide you through the proper legal procedures to modify your child support payments accordingly.

Divorce / dissolution

Through mediation or litigation, the Law Office of Curtis D. Colaw can help you gain the most equitable results from your divorce, including fair distribution of assets, division of the marital home, child support payments and child custody rights.

Mediation

Mediation puts the decisions in your hands and can often provide more expedient, predictable results than a trial. I can help you obtain the most equitable divorce settlement.

Pre- and postnuptial agreements

I expect the unexpected and draft premarital agreements that protect both spouses’ interests and that can alleviate some of the stress should you ever divorce. I also draft agreements after marriage based upon the needs of married couples.
