Unfortunately, it's best to actually<i> know </i>at least some of the law that governs the type of issue you have. If you had a complicated separate property issue, compounded by numerous transactions that may or may not create further problems, you would likely have no idea how those issues would be handled?<br />
<br />
Or if you have a side businesses which adds to your employment income, and you don't want to pay high spousal, well-- you're going to need a plan well in advance! Unfortunately, a client may just want to agree to shared visitation where one spouse never pays anything but the other spouse then has to pay increased support because there is not any child support offset? A typical client isn't going to know these things.<br />

<br />
Or, if you had a part time business that you owned years before you met your spouse, and then he started siphoning money out of the business without you knowing it, AND creating more credit card debt (without you knowing it) ---- you are going to have some large issues. OR if you were married over 20 years and now have huge health issues, should you let your ex bifurcate your case?<br />
<br />
Maybe your spousal is too high or too low; maybe you don't understand how it's calculated to begin with, so you wouldn't know if it was right to start with? <br />
<br />
<i>Maybe </i>you think all attorneys work the same way, but in fact, each attorney handles their clients differently. Attorney herein has seen showboat attorneys, bragging attorneys, pathetic attorneys, just plain <i>overly</i> aggressive attorneys, and some really lame attorneys that can't or don't have any legal reasons to bring motions forward, and just lose them-- but keep getting paid? What the hell are they telling their client? Lies??<br />

Knowing that attorneys act differently, we realize that could mean clients either don't know how attorneys should act, or just assume their attorney is doing things correctly. Over the years, what is surprising to see in Family law, are attorneys that may have come from a big name school, but can't draft a decent argument for court, much less argue the case. Oftentimes, the documents are hardly persuasive. Or attorneys that have been around for 20 years and think they own the courtroom, but can't even file a procedurally correct document, or think they can simply bamboozle opposing counsel by using invalid/improper written threats?<br />
None of these things is lost on attorney herein. Attorney carefully sizes up all other attorneys so that we know what we are working with. A strategy plan is always used, even though opposing attorneys usually believe that no plan is being used by attorney of this site... (Haha that's half the battle there...) How this has happened, is that attorney herein has had to battle other attorneys from both the Bay Area and Los Angeles, and then one realizes that some attorneys are way over the mark. We know other attorneys never read what we write here and even if they did, it wouldn't matter. Attorney usually does not lose cases. End of story.<br />

Further, even if smoking is allowed in certain areas, many mediators don't want kids near second hand smoke, period. EVEN if it's inside the house in another room...EVEN if it's anywhere near where the kids might be, play, or access? Like outside?</span><br />
<br style="background-color: #882222; color: seashell; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" />
<b style="background-color: #882222; color: seashell; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">The "smoking" will generally cover most forms of tobacco and possibly edibles.... (cigar, cigarette, vape, medical MJ, etc...) And many times, smoking by third parties in the home may not be a good idea due to secondhand smoke. VAPING is almost worst because it is becoming well known, that the nicotine involved, is fused with scents (i.e. cherry,etc) that the teens are running to buy/try? <a href="https://vaping360.com/how-old-to-vape/" style="color: seashell; text-decoration-line: none;">https://vaping360.com/how-old-to-vape/</a></b><br />

<span style="background-color: #882222; color: seashell; font-family: "arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">In Butte County, </span><b style="background-color: #882222; color: seashell; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">a jury has previously returned a guilty verdict over an issue of whether <i>medical </i>marijuana is a defense (to child endangerment charges</b><span style="background-color: #882222; color: seashell; font-family: "arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">)--- the long contested case of Daisy Bram, where allegedly, the lesser count of misdemeanor child endangerment was found (as opposed to child endangerment likely to cause great bodily harm)... Judge Glusman ruled that </span><i style="background-color: #882222; color: seashell; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">no valid evidence </i><span style="background-color: #882222; color: seashell; font-family: "arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">was presented as to the </span><b style="background-color: #882222; color: seashell; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">certified use of medicinal marijuana and thus it was not available as a defense. Ms. Bram was not represented by counsel, which obviously hindered her defense.</b><br />

<b>If the prosecuting agency in your county believes that you are “endangering the health of your child” by smoking marijuana or growing it in a home where your children reside, you may face criminal charges...</b>.<br />
<br />
These charges may be filed as a misdemeanor or as a felony. Of course, if the court order stated that any type of smoking or use of same is not allowed while child is under your care, a violation might be a contempt charge potentially, if the other spouse or another was to bring that claim forward?</div>

<div style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20.3px;">
If convicted of felony child endangerment, you could be sentenced to up to six years in prison and ordered to pay a maximum $10,000 fine. A misdemeanor conviction is punishable by up to one year in county jail, up to a $1,000 fine, or both.<br />

<b><br /></b><b>Why is Alcohol Allowed But Not MJ?</b></h3>
<br />
Generally, no courts like the idea of alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, edibles, cigarettes, cigars, etc. when it comes to kids. Although there are tons of rules regarding drunk driving, there are not tons of rules for intoxication at home due to getting high on drugs, including legal marijuana and the like. While the hearsay out there is that MJ will be used, consumed and grown by large business, including beer companies, and that the feds will be changing those laws, it is a possibility, but we wouldn't bet your life on it happening super soon. The banks and other super duty corporations always want to benefit themselves first. BUT if they manage to do it, we can be assured that they will have already thought of safer ways to tone down common marijuana so that it would be as common as alcohol, and treated closer to the way alcohol is regulated. OTOH, the presence of nicotine in the vaping formulas which are targeting teens (and apparently succeeding)-- is something that relies on curiosity and being popular, because "everyone" is trying it. However one is supposed to be 21 to be "vaping"....well, we are sure that plenty of people are ignoring that there law?? LOL<br />
Parents that are smoking or vaping, your kids are watching you.<br />
<br />
Note: //The courts generally do not favor the smoking of MJ, even if it is medically prescribed. People with chronic anxiety often resort to marijuana use, or prescription meds. The meds only do so much, the overly anxious client will still be overly anxious, but somewhat better than with no meds at all.//</div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14.85px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "tahoma" , "helvetica" , "freesans" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14.85px;">Attorney herein used to be in an office in San Diego with a Special Master who was always working on forensic issues. Commonly, a CPA would be used but is not required unless complex tax transactions were seen for many issues. When coupled with non disclosure, these financial issues can generate some very high expenses. Many of the cases in the appeals courts can focus on the tracing of assets and division.</span></span><br />

Rather clearly, we don't think this was even discretionary, since when counsel on later motion queried "What about client's $100,000 proven cash down payment in separate property", Judge replied "That's a good question." Obviously the case was an appeals case that would have generated a better decision.

<div style="text-align: center;">
First, the hallmark of a good lawyer is that he or she will tell a client the truth,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and not pretend that everything is easy or fast.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Pointing out the good and bad possibilities will give clients a better idea </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of what they are facing. </div>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.85px; line-height: 19px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
A good lawyer gives clients truthful facts, and sometimes, bad news. WHY? </div>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.85px; line-height: 19px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Because we deal with reality, not fiction, not stories, not lies.</div>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.85px; line-height: 19px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
In divorce cases there may seem to be crummy news... you want </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
an attorney that you feel- cares about your situation, who </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
genuinely wants to help you, and isn't just there to take your </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
hard earned income. Some of the following may be issues, or may take place:</div>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.85px; line-height: 19px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
--There will not necessarily be enough money to </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
maintain the same living style you were used to.... </div>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.85px; line-height: 19px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
--Possibly, the family home will have to be sold. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In some cases, the parties may have options they don't know about.</div>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.85px; line-height: 19px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
--Parent may spend more time, or less time with the children than before....</div>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.85px; line-height: 19px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
--Parents who are either highly anxious, on medication </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
or have ongoing mental issues, may feel </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
overburdened emotionally and have difficulty</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in coping with changes involving children</div>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.85px; line-height: 19px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
--The children may misbehave or exhibit other<br />
problems, which may take time to solve </div>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14.85px; line-height: 19px; padding: 0px 0px 10px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Clients sometimes don't understand how the law </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
operates, and may be surprised or upset to find </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
out how it might affect them.<br />
Unfortunately, this</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
will likely be somewhat common in many cases<br />
as the issue of having less money and two households<br />
is fairly typical in family law for the</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
most part. It won't be all fun and games.<br />
But at least having an attorney that seriously wants<br />
to win your case for you is a good start.</div>
