Pasadena Spousal Support / Alimony Mediator

Spousal support is possibly one of the most contested areas in a divorce proceeding. The court has broad discretion in awarding or denying spousal support based on a number of factors. An experienced family law mediator can help you keep control in your hands, not the court's, by working with your spouse to find an amicable solution you both appreciate.

His experience in spousal support cases allows him to work efficiently on your behalf and find solutions that consider both your short- and long-term needs.

Mr. Baer is familiar with the criteria that the courts use to make spousal support decisions and the judges who make them. His knowledge of the law and his experience gives him keen insight into these types of cases. He is a skilled negotiator who knows how to build a case that supports your position while also appeasing both your spouse and the court that will eventually need to sign off on your agreement.

• Earning capacity of each spouse
