Carlsbad Family Law Attorneys

Serving Individuals & Families Throughout Southern California

At Lass Law, we believe divorce is not the destination; it’s a path to the other side of something better waiting for you. The journey through divorce is deeply personal, and how you move through it should be guided by clarity, support, and conscious decision-making.

With the proper legal and emotional support, this process does not have to break you. While your spouse may pose challenges, our role is to identify them early, navigate them strategically, and avoid wasting energy on battles with predictable outcomes.

We are more than just legal counsel; we are your trusted advisor and voice of reality. With confidence and compassion, we walk beside you through one of life’s most difficult transitions, helping you move forward with strength, dignity, and peace of mind.

We educate you. We empower you. We protect your future.

Our firm is built on word-of-mouth and referral relationships, something we hold at the core of every case and every life we touch.

Call (760) 474-3861 or contact us online to schedule a confidential consultation with a Carlsbad family lawyer at Lass Law. We offer virtual meetings upon request, where preferred.

Frequently Asked Questions

We understand that seeking legal representation can raise various questions. Below are some of the most frequently asked questions we get.

  • Distribution laws. Community property states divide marital assets equally, while equitable distribution states divide assets fairly but not necessarily equally, based on factors like each spouse’s contributions, earning potential, and financial needs.

  • To modify a custody or support order, you must file a petition with the court that issued the original order. You’ll need to demonstrate a significant change in circumstances, such as a job loss, relocation, or changes in the child’s needs, to justify the modification.

  • Yes, in many states, grandparents can petition for visitation rights. The court will evaluate the nature of the relationship, the child’s best interests, and whether visitation will provide emotional and psychological benefits to the child. However, parental rights typically take precedence.

  • Child support is calculated based on state-specific guidelines that consider factors such as each parent’s income, the number of children, custody arrangements, and the child’s specific needs. Courts may also factor in healthcare costs, childcare expenses, and educational needs when determining the payment amount.

  • Legal custody refers to the authority to make major decisions about a child’s life, such as education, healthcare, and religious upbringing. Physical custody determines where the child lives and who is responsible for their day-to-day care. Both can be shared (joint custody) or awarded to one parent (sole custody), depending on what the court deems to be in the child’s best interests.
