Dedicated Experience in Family Law on Your Side.
Covina Contested Divorce Lawyer
What is a contested divorce?
Unfortunately, the reality of divorce is that most marriages do not end on friendly terms. Instead there is often unpleasantness between the spouses while the arrangements of the divorce are being settled. If two spouses are unable to reach an agreement on the terms of their divorce outside of court, they must go to divorce court.
This is known as a contested divorce. If you are involved in a contested divorce case, it is vital that you speak with a Covina divorce attorney from my firm today. If you do not have legal representation when you go to court you risk not having your interests represented and may not find your divorce settlement satisfactory.
An uncontested divorce, while less expensive is not always realistic, if you and your spouse do not see eye to eye on most of the matters that need to be settled, such as asset division, child custody, and more. When you cannot reach an agreement a contested divorce requires that you go to divorce court to have your case heard by a judge, who will determine the most accurate way to settle your affairs. While a judge will do his or her best to achieve an equitable division of the assets, you will have little to no say in the matter. The best thing you can do during a contested divorce is to hire and experienced and aggressive attorney to fight for you.

"Mr. Eads, you are a true master in your field and I will always be available should any of your prospective clients want to contact me as a reference."Mr. Eads, you are a true master in your field.- Peter K.

"Mr. Eads worked hard for me and I am confident he will do the same for you."My ex boyfriend was very abusive. His attorney seemed to be very aggressive and was always filing Ex Parte (emergency) hearings for me to appear in court. Due to a cost issue, I attempted to handle matters myself but it seemed that I could not get my point accrues to the judge who seemed to be familiar with my ex boyfriend’s attorney. I found Mr. Eads in the phonebook and I thought I would give him a call. Mr. Eads was able to get the restraining order I was seeking and my ex boyfriend ended up paying Mr. Eads’ attorney fees. I can now feel rest-assured that my daughter and I will be safe. I also happy that I do not have to deal with my ex’s attorney anymore. Mr. Eads worked hard for me and I am confident he will do the same for you.- K.Y.

"I was barely able to make ends meet. Mr. Eads worked out a payment plan with me and reduced my arrears."I will be able to pay it off quicker and with more money left over with the payment Mr. Eads was able to negotiate for me.- John H.

"The outcome was much more than I ever expected to receive."My previous attorney failed to show up for my court date and as a result, the matter was set for trial without any input from my side. I desperately sought out an attorney but most of them wanted a huge retainer up front. I found Mr. Eads and when I went in for a consultation, I found that his retainer was more than reasonable. I also liked the fact that he practices exclusively family law and seems very familiar with the local judicial officers. I felt very comfortable with Mr. Eads in my corner going into my trial and I found that the outcome was much more than I ever expected to receive. Mr. Eads was very thorough in my case evaluation and helped me get everything I was entitled to.- J.L.

"Mr. Eads was able to help structure a settlement that allowed me to keep my business while sharing the business debts with my ex."I am a business owner and when I got divorced, I was terrified that I would lose my business. My business was also heavily leveraged against and I did not have enough capitol to sustain the business and pay my wife spousal support. My ex had an attorney who was very intimidating and kept pressuring me to liquidate the business so that I could pay his attorney’s fees. I was referred to Mr. Eads by a friend. Mr. Eads was able to help structure a settlement that allowed me to keep my business while sharing the business debts with my ex. I was also able to shorten my spousal support obligation. I really appreciate Mr. Eads professionalism and guidance during these difficult times.- J.A.

"Not only did Mr. Eads get my daughter returned to me, I was able to have full physical custody."I am honored to write this review for Mr. Eads after he helped reunify me with my daughter after my ex abducted her and moved to Arizona. I was devastated when I came home from work to find my ex had left with all our daughter’s belongings. I called the police who told me I needed to hire an attorney. I came across Mr. Eads’ website and I was impressed with his bio. I contacted him immediately and within days, we were in court requesting that my the DA Abduction unit assist me in the return of my daughter. Not only did Mr. Eads get my daughter returned to me, I was able to have full physical custody and my ex has summer and holiday visitation. Mr. Eads is truly my hero. Thanks Mr. Eads!- Paul W.
