Los Angeles Divorce Attorney for People of High Net Worth
Individuals with high net worth need to fight aggressively to protect their financial interests in negotiating divorce settlements and in court. With more than over 30 years of experience in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills, California, I have represented, sued and defended celebrities and high profile clients in need and have effectively assisted in conflict resolution for their family law matters.
Are You Ready to File?
Before you decide to pay an attorney to handle your divorce, there are some important things you and your spouse can do to avoid costly litigation:
- Establish which one of you will be suing for divorce (it matters)
- Settle as many issues as possible regarding ownership of physical property
- Try to establish a financial agreement you can both live with
- List any remaining disagreements that might prove contentious
- Settle as many custody and visitation issues as possible
- Don’t argue about child support, the courts will apply a specific formula
- Discuss any alimony arrangements you can both agree to

Divorce Can be Costly, But It Doesn’t Have To Be
I always advise my clients to find the common ground that will lead to a settlement the court can approve. In some cases, a spouse may get aggressive about demands, or hire an attorney that would rather fight for the silverware than search for common ground. I have nearly decades of experience as a family law attorney in Southern California and I can speak from experience. I can assuredly say that couples who can avoid fighting and try to find common ground are going to be happier in the long run.
I provide legal counsel for divorce matters related to:
- Contested divorce and marriage dissolution
- Legal separation
- Community property and individual property settlements
- Child custody and visitation rights
- Child support
- Dividing financial assets and marital property
I also represent clients in a full range of additional family law concerns, including:
- Prenuptial agreements and postnuptial agreements
- Post-judgment support and custody modifications
- Concealed assets
- Paternity issues
- Domestic violence and restraining orders
A Note About Modifying Your Original Divorce Settlement or Judgment
In order to merit a post-divorce modification, there typically must be a significant change in circumstances such as, a new job, a salary shift, or a desire to move to a new area. If you want to modify an existing divorce decree, and make changes to a child custody or a spousal support order, contact experienced Los Angeles and Beverly Hills divorce lawyer Cary W. Goldstein to review your case.
You will find me responsive and supportive throughout your divorce. I practice with integrity and have earned the respect of my peers and judges in the family law courts throughout Southern California.
