Elaine J. Harrison - East Bay Divorce Attorney statue2

For over 10 years, Alameda County divorce attorney Elaine Harrison has focused her family law practice on the challenges typically experienced by men in divorce. If you're concerned about spousal support for a wife who hasn't worked in years, or protecting your rights to child custody or visitation if your wife has a restraining order against you, contact East Bay Area divorce lawyer Elaine Harrison.

She can advise you in all aspects of your marital dissolution case, including:

  • Moving out of the family home
  • Preparing for the child custody evaluation
  • Determining child support and spousal support payments
  • Resolving community property and separate property characterization, including complex issues concerning equity in a family residence, separate inheritances, and valuation of retirement plans, substantial investments, and professional practices
  • Preparing for mediation
  • Opposing restraining orders and charges of domestic violence

Gender politics can play a huge, if unacknowledged, role in divorce cases. When you hire Elaine Harrison, she can help insulate you from charges of male dominance, bullying, and overbearing behavior, particularly when your spouse's attorney is working these themes to the max.

Oakland divorce lawyer Elaine Harrison gives you the ability to fight a little harder for your own interests, particularly if you have a lot to protect. Her knowledge of the California Family Code and her tactical experience can guide you through the vocational evaluation process if your wife has been out of the workforce for an extended period, as well as through the child custody evaluation and parenting plan process to both maximize your access to your children and minimize your payments.

Alameda community property attorney Elaine Harrison also knows how to identify, appraise, evaluate, and prove the value of complex assets, such as family business properties, pension and investment accounts, or vacation real estate. She'll work hard to protect your property and ensure that your separate property is properly characterized and excluded from the marital estate.

See how Elaine Harrison's integrated understanding of California divorce law from a man's perspective can help you survive your dissolution. For sophisticated legal and strategic advice about any Family Court problem, contact this Alameda divorce lawyer for a consultation.
