La Mesa Child Custody Attorney


Child custody cases are some of the most important in the legal system because the outcome of these cases affects the most important relationships in your life. There is nothing that matters more to most parents than being an active participant in their child’s life, and the outcome of a custody case determines if that will be possible. 

Contreras Law Firm can help you in these high-stakes cases. Our La Mesa family law firm understands the ins and outs of California’s custody laws and will work hard to ensure you have continued access to your child after a separation or divorce. 

Give us a call today at (619) 238-0616 to schedule your free consultation and learn more about the assistance a La Mesa child custody attorney can offer you during your custody case. 

Call Contreras Law Firm When You Need a La Mesa Child Custody Attorney 

You can’t place your children’s future in the hands of just any La Mesa child custody lawyer. Contreras Law Firm is the firm to call because of our long and successful track record in representing clients in custody cases. Some of the key reasons to place your trust in our legal team include the following:

  • We represent clients in all types of custody cases. Whether you need help with an initial parenting plan, a modification of an order because of a material change in circumstances, or help enforcing a custody plan, our team is ready to advocate for you. 
  • We have extensive experience helping clients create a parenting plan. You and your family will have better outcomes if you make your parenting plan rather than litigating the issue and letting the court decide what is best. We help you negotiate your parenting plan so you can find a compromise that works for you. 
  • We have an in-depth understanding of California laws on child custody. Our firm has deep knowledge of laws related to child custody issues, including California Code Section 3011, which establishes factors used to determine the best interests of the child. We can help to argue that your preferred outcomes are the right option based on the best interpretation of the law. 
  • We are caring advocates. When you are involved in a custody case, you need someone you can trust, who communicates clearly, and who cares about your case. Contreras Law Firm can be this type of representative, guiding you through your involvement with the legal system to create the best parenting plan for your family. 

What Can A La Mesa Child Custody Attorney Do For You?

No matter what type of custody dispute or discussion you are involved in, Contreras Law Firm will be a solid advocate for you. Our La Mesa child custody attorneys take care of many important tasks in custody cases including:

  • Gathering evidence and finding witnesses to help you make a compelling case. We can help you convince the court that your preferred parenting plan is the best outcome. This may involve finding expert witnesses such as child psychology experts or people who know your children and your past relationship with them. 
  • Helping you to prove paternity. If you want to make a claim for your child and share custody but need to prove that you are the child’s parent, we can assist you in going through the legal process. 
  • Filing court paperwork. If you are initiating a custody case or want to modify an existing custody arrangement, you may need to file documents with the court. We’ll take care of the paperwork on your behalf.
  • Explaining your rights. We can help you understand the best interests of the child standard, as well as other laws related to your case such as rules for physical and legal custody. 
  • Representing you in or out of court. We can help you negotiate a parenting plan, go through the mediation process to agree on custody, or litigate your case. 

Don’t go through a custody case without an experienced advocate standing by your side. Contact Contreras Law Firm today at (619) 238-0616 to schedule a free consultation with a La Mesa child custody lawyer who will help you fight for time with your kids.
