Family Law

We offer free help with Family Law and some Guardianship cases for people without lawyers.  We are closed for face-to-face services because of the pandemic but you can access our services by calling us any weekday the court is open at 707-207-7355 between 8:30 am and 12:30 pm.

We may be able to help with the following issues:

• Divorce
• Child support, including DCSS cases
• Restraining orders
• Child custody and parenting time
• Spousal support
• Guardianship of the person of a child

About our services

• We cannot help you if you are represented by a lawyer in your case.
• We cannot help with the division of pensions, with complicated divisions of property and debt, with discovery or with complicated enforcement issues. In the opinion of the Facilitator, these sorts of issues require the counsel of an experienced family law attorney.
• We are not your lawyer – no attorney-client privilege exists between you and this office and your communications with this office in any form are not confidential.
