Attorney's Fees

San Jose, California Divorce and Family Law Attorneys

In some cases and at the court's discretion a divorcing party in California can seek an order requiring the other party to pay all or part of their attorney fees and court costs related to the divorce.

At the Law Offices of Thomas Chase Stutzman, A Professional Corporation we have the skill and experience to assist our clients in obtaining court order(s) requesting that the other party pays all or part of our client's attorney fees and/or court costs. We are familiar with the code sections and extensive number of appellate decisions that provide the basis for the court to order one party to pay all or part of the other party's attorney fees. California statute generally makes such an order discretionary, which means while one can request attorney's fees, the court may or may not grant such a request. In this area, as in most areas of Family Law in California, the particular facts are all important.
