Practice AREAS

Family Law

Parentage refers to who the court will recognize and impose parental obligations on as the child’s legal parent. In some cases, the law presumes that certain individuals are a child’s parents. In other cases, the parent (and in some cases, the child) must seek an order from the court that identifies the child’s legal parents.

Child Custody

A child custody order allows you to make important educational and medical decisions regarding your child as well as determines whether you will share in joint physical custody with your child’s other parent or if one parent will have sole physical custody custody of the child.

Custody and Support Modification

If you have experienced a significant change in circumstances, then you may request to modify your current custody, visitation or support order.

Spousal and Domestic Support

When a marriage or domestic partnership ends, the court may award spousal or domestic support long enough or until the supported party becomes self-supporting.

Immigration Lawyer

Individuals who have been victims of certain qualifying crimes, suffered physical or mental harm as a result of that crime and assists law enforcement in the apprehension and prosecution of the perpetrator of that crime may be eligible for this form of immigration relief. Individuals who are eligible for this form of immigration relief may also be able to obtain derivative relief for their family members, including their spouse, child, parent or sibling.

Domestic Violence Restraining Order

An individual can seek a domestic violence restraining order against his or her (1) spouse or former spouse, (2) cohabitant or former cohabitant, (3) a person with whom he or she is having, or has had, a dating or engagement relationship, (4) a person with whom he or she has had a child, or (5) close relative such as a child, sibling, parent, in-law or grandparent.

TESTIMONIALS

I reached out to Mr. Castro for assistance with an upcoming custody/visitation court case in Sonoma County. Jeremy responded to my initial inquiry quickly and his knowledgeable and informative manner made me feel heard and understood, something that, in my experience, is quite rare. He was able to share his experiential knowledge with me in a kind and engaging way that made me feel empowered to take on the challenges ahead. Jeremy was also able to establish early on that he is a man of compassion and integrity. Those are traits I believe are incredibly valuable to anyone finding themselves facing the challenges and uncertainty of the court system. Mr. Castro is experienced and operates with integrity and compassion.

Jeremy was the best decision that my family and I had ever done. Jeremy is fairly new in the field but he is aware and very knowledgeable of the law. When he didn't know something he would find the answer and do his research. Lawyers can get expensive but Jeremy was willing to work payments for me, which helped me and my family financially. Jeremy is professional and always had great follow up (Via Email and Text). Jeremy The main reason we chose Jeremy is because he relates to his clients on a personal level and understands the different issues that people struggle with on a daily basis. Thank you Jeremy for all the help and making our life normal again.
