San Francisco County Family Lawyers
“Sometimes a good outcome is very clear – getting a restraining order against an abusive spouse, or getting spousal support against a spouse who’s hiding income. Other times, a good outcome is far more nuanced. Without fail, all of our best outcomes, our big wins, come about because only one side did the work. And a big, big part of that is deeply understanding the people involved and what makes them tick.”

Looking for an Exceptional Family Law Attorney in San Francisco?
San Francisco family law attorneys who deliver an individualized solution for every client.
There are basically two kinds of family law attorneys in San Francisco: those that run a volume practice and those that treat every case as one of a kind. At Laughlin Legal, we take it one case at a time. The more complex the family law matter, the more essential it is that the legal approach is as unique as the case is. And unlike most family law firms, we offer a diverse menu of legal approaches in-house. Whichever approach suits each case best – whether litigation, mediation, or collaborative law – our own in-house team has expertise in that approach.
Just as families are complex, so, too, is family law. Fortunately, complexity suits us. We excel at great outcomes for particularly complex cases and are proud to offer our clients comprehensive and personalized legal representation and services for just about every family matter under the sun including:
- Divorce and legal separation
- International divorce
- Child custody and support
- Asset division and spousal support
- Complex asset division in high-visibility divorce
- Domestic violence
- Adoption and guardianship
- Paternity
- Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements
- Cohabitation agreements
- LGBTQ+ and same-sex agreements
- Elder law
- Guardianships and conservatorships
- Estate planning, and trust and estate administration
- Real estate transactions
- Mediation, collaborative law, and litigation
San Francisco family law attorneys for whom innovation is customary.
