Elaine J. Harrison - Alameda Family Law Attorney for Men 

In many divorce cases, men are at a distinct disadvantage, especially if they are professionally successful, physically imposing, or have forceful personalities. Whether consciously or otherwise, the court, child custody evaluator, mediator, and other Family Court professionals might tend to perceive such men's wives as weaker and in need of protection. The wives and their attorneys might try to exploit these perceived disadvantages, or invent them even where they don't exist.

Even in the 21st century, you might be surprised how fast these little equalizing "benefits of the doubt" might pile up against you in favor of your wife. By hiring a woman divorce attorney, you can neutralize most of these imbalances. Contact Oakland divorce attorney Elaine Harrison to learn more about the strategic implications of having a woman represent a man in your divorce case.

Alameda family law attorney Elaine Harrison represents men in divorce cases and other family law situations. She's a 1993 graduate of San Francisco Law School. Before that, she had ten years of managerial experience in law firms and at the University of California's Boalt Hall School of Law. She combines a thorough familiarity with the California Family Code with a confident and practical manner in court. She's also a smart negotiator who knows how to make the most out of your case.

Elaine Harrison won't let you be portrayed as a bullying control freak before a judge or anyone else. Her goal is to present you as the reasonable one, and she's had a lot of practice doing just that in hundreds of family law cases. Her strategic experience can help you handle the challenges of divorce - from the moment you're served with the petition (and often, a restraining order), to a postdecree motion for modifying a child support order. The earlier she gets involved in your case, the sooner you'll understand just how much she can accomplish for you.
