Fathers’ Rights Attorneys

Divorce & Family Law Lawyers with offices in Burbank, Encino and Westlake Village

At Cutter & Associates, we believe that a father shares a special relationship with his child or children. We believe this relationship should be protected and that fathers deserve to have their rights protected in family law matters. Unfortunately, we have seen far too often a family law matter or divorce addressed in such a way that a father’s rights are violated or ignored. As experienced family law attorneys it is our goal to protect fathers’ rights throughout any of a number of legal situations, including child custody disputes, spousal support, child support, divorce, legal separation, and more.

In consulting a San Fernando Valley fathers’ rights lawyer at our firm, you have the opportunity to find out what rights you have and what legal options can be explored on your behalf. If you are a father, a husband or an ex-husband going through a divorce or other family law-related issue, you need an attorney on your side experienced in these particular matters. Let our firm help you find the solutions that will best serve your interests and protect you and your children’s futures. We represent clients throughout all of the San Fernando Valley, including in Burbank, Encino, Westlake Village, Woodland Hills, Sherman Oaks, Glendale, and Van Nuys.

Husbands and Fathers Have Rights, Too!

In the past, most family law and divorce court rulings went in the favor of the mother in terms of child custody, visitation and child support. Unless the mother was simply unfit to care for the child, custody would virtually be automatically granted to her. In more recent years, fathers’ rights have become more broadly recognized throughout family law courts in the San Fernando Valley and the rest of California. However, it often still takes hard work and dedication to fully exercise these rights and ensure your special bond with your children is not damaged or completely severed.

A skilled fathers’ rights attorney should recognize that a child will often be better off with a strong and loving relationship with his or her mother and father. Granting sole custody to the mother in a divorce or legal separation can affect a child’s wellbeing, particularly when the mother attempts to limit or prevent visitation. She may move out of town or may seek a court judgment that makes it so you can’t see your child or children as much as you would like to.

Don’t let your relationship with your children suffer because you didn’t have the proper legal representation. Contact a San Fernando Valley fathers’ rights attorney at our firm today for a free consultation! We have offices in Burbank, Westlake Village and Encino for your convenience.
