Confronting divorce proceedings can seem like uncharted waters to spouses in a shipwrecked marriage. During our years in law practice, we have guided hundreds of people through the complexities of legal separation, marital dissolution and child custody negotiations. We at Porrino Law pledge to protect your assets and embed your interests to the greatest degree possible when you entrust us to represent you.
Porrino Law PC operates under the guidance of principal Dominic H. Porrino, who entered law practice with the intention of protecting the assets and safety of citizens by helping them negotiate the complexities of the California legal system. The competitive spirit that prompted him to play lacrosse and rugby in his youth now drives development of strategies to protect the best interests of his clients.
We help clients with irreconcilable differences prepare separation agreements, file for legal separation, or navigate divorce actions, depending upon their needs and desires. Legalities surrounding child custody and child support are complex and exacting. Porrino Law PC places emphasis on protecting the best interests of children as well as our clients.
Couples who decide they can no longer live together may seek either legal separation or divorce, which have differing legal and financial consequences. Porrino Law represents clients in both of those legal declarations.
In a legal separation, obtained through a court decree, parties come to agreement about spousal financial support, child custody and visitation, child support, division of personal and real estate property, management of shared finances, and boundaries for conduct.The couple remains legally married, however, and may not remarry while legally separated.

After going through 2 other family law attorneys to get my divorce completed, I meet with Dominic. After one meeting with him he set up a plan for me to navigate the courts to get through a long overdue divorce. As he stood beside me during each court date my confidence grew with his professionalism on handling my case. Within short order it was completed with a far better outcome, in my favor, than expected. Cannot thank Dominic at Porrino Family Law enough! I will recommend him to anyone!

Custody dispute when a child's welfare is a stake is never easy. Mr. Porrino is your best asset to navigate the biased courts while ensuring your child remains the focal point. He is professional, accessible, and responsive. Mr. Porrino's guidance and advice allow my son to grow with his father. Thank you!

Where do I began....
Dominic has been the BIGGEST BLESSING for my family and most competent attorney I have ever retained. I have worked with several attorneys spending thousands of dollars. I have battled my son's father for several years. Dominic has always put my son's best interest first, been honest, not sold me bs to take my money, kept my son safe, and not allowed the system to fail him. Even with the challenges we faced Dominic NEVER GAVE UP and didn't allow me to give up.
My son is now 10 years old, striving despite all the drama he endured as a young child. THERE

I’m so grateful for Dominic. He genuinely cares about his clients and was with me every step of the way. He is informative and efficient. He was extremely helpful and responsive to all of my questions and concerns. He was very professional and maintained transparency throughout the process. He was honest and forthcoming about all probable outcomes, helping to alleviate some of the anxiety. I appreciate Dominic’s assistance through this difficult time and will absolutely refer him. Great service! He is awesome!

When I discovered in December 2014 that my "best friend" of 25 years and husband of 20 years wanted a divorce, I was in complete shock. It felt like everything I had counted on was suddenly turned upside down. I had been a stay-at-home mother and was just getting back into the workforce, while he had a high-paying tech job. Our marriage not only included children, but stock shares and options, his 401K, our new beautiful home, rental property, etc. There was no history of divorce in my family, and I had never needed the assistance of a lawyer. I was terrified.
