The law office of ALEXANDRA M. KWOKA offers you an individualized approach to addressing legal and financial issues in your separation or divorce.
In long term marriages, clients face not only financial issues, but also emotional issues. As the parties separate, they are required to look at retirement, employment benefits, and engage in estate planning, and make choices as to who will assist and care for them in the future, as their spouse is no longer their likely choice for Trustee, Power of Attorney, and/or Conservator. We work hard to ensure your goals and unique circumstances are carefully considered and that all options are discussed and evaluated.
We negotiate marital settlement agreements through the Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) process, including Mediation, or represent clients in traditional litigation, involving court hearings and/or trial. While Alexandra M. Kwoka has 30 years of litigation experience, she encourages her high net worth clients to pursue Alternative Dispute Resolution methods including Mediation and Collaborative Divorce.
Recent changes in San Diego Family Law provides, and recent Court cases hold, that financial information presented in divorce and support proceedings is within the public domain. A client who has licenses, patents intellectual property rights or business interests, which the client prefers not to value publicly, should strongly consider ADR. Those who have significant income and/or assets, which the client prefers remain private, should also consider ADR.
In ADR the combativeness of litigation is replaced by a cooperative process that provides options unavailable in traditional divorce models.
Our firm specializes in working with high net worth individuals to help ensure that personal information is sheltered from public record. |
