Child Custody

Child Support
California law requires both parents to contribute to their child’s financial well-being after separation or divorce. At The Sands Law Group, we assist clients in Los Angeles with establishing, modifying, or enforcing child support orders tailored to their situation.

Protect your assets and plan for the future with a prenuptial agreement tailored to your needs. We help couples in Los Angeles create legally enforceable prenups that clarify financial responsibilities and safeguard personal and business property.
