Divorce is never easy, but if you understand the requirements and the options available to you, then the divorce process can often proceed smoothly and with little interruption - and having an experienced attorney definitely helps! The State of California is a "no fault" state, which means that no one spouse can be "at fault" for the divorce.
Being a mother doesn't necessarily mean that you have a stable family life, nor an income to support your child. Fortunately laws in the State of California provide some support to get you moving in the right direction. Establishing paternity (the legal acknowledgment of your child's father) is perhaps the most critical step towards collecting child support and moving you forward in raising your child.
Relationship issues that are not resolved often result in very emotional, trying times, particularly in a divorce - especially when one is considering child custody, and all of the financial ramifications of such a decision. A restraining order can help protect the "status quo" of the marriage relationship until the divorce is final.
Divorce is never easy, but if you understand the requirements and the options available to you, then you can choose the best option that works for you - and having an experienced attorney definitely helps! A "Legal Separation" is one of the options that are available for couples who are not ready to terminate their marriage but want to be considered separate for legal and tax liability purposes.
Making the decision to divorce when you have children is a complicated and highly emotional decision. Often the most difficult decision during a divorce involves who will take care of the children. The results of these decisions can affect your life and the life of your child for years to come; therefore, it is important to retain the services of an experienced family law attorney immediately.

Scottie is the most amazing person, not just attorney. I came to Scottie in the fight of a lifetime. I had previously had representation that failed miserably, so I was aprehensive when it came to attorneys in general with zero faith in the family law system. She is strong and determind. There were times she had to even be stern with me and I respected every bit of her honesty. She doesn't promise the world, she promises what she can deliver. She is a rare find in the family law world. Myself and my children owe our lives to Scottie. She saw us in a very dangerous situation that could

I'm so very grateful I was referred to Leming Family Law. Scottie was great to work with and she knows her stuff. She was always very prompt and organized with paperwork, emails, phone calls, etc. I liked the personal experience. Because of her I was able to get custody of my daughter and move out of state which I requested. Thank you Leming law! I would 100% recommend their services!

I most definitely recommend Scottie Leming to anyone looking for a family law attorney! Scottie was such a blessing and her reputation is above reproach! Throughout my entire divorce and custody proceedings, Scottie remained a straight shooter with her honesty and was such a fighter for me in court! Having been the victim of domestic violence my entire marriage, Scottie handled my situation with care and compassion, which helped me create a better life for my baby and I. And for this, I am forever grateful!

I don't even know where to begin with Scottie. From start to finish and even after my court hearing, she was by my side, fought hard for me, helped calm my nerves and always was available when I needed her. I had hired another firm previously to hiring Scottie, they would nickel and dime me for everything little thing and didn't make me feel confident about winning my case. So when I was referred to Scottie, it was like a complete 360 was made, she only discussed things with me that needed to be discussed and once we were in front of the judge, she did what she needed to do and I couldn

Besides leaving my son's biological father, Scottie is the best thing that has happened with that whole part of my life. I've had several attorneys in the past and Scottie has outdone them all. Not only is she really good at what she does, she actually cares about her clients and treats you like a person and not just another paycheck. She actually gets to know you and your case. I followed Scottie from her last office to her own after she left, I actually went out of my way to find her. She is trustworthy and won't promise you things she can't do, she will give you advice even

I turned to Scottie to start my divorce process and she was amazing. So easy to talk to and really understood what I wanted and never pressured me into anything I wasn't comfortable with. Her presence in court made the situation way less stressful and it was clear she had a great reputation within the courthouse. Would absolutely recommend her!

Scottie has been my attorney for the last year in a contentious divorce and custody case with a history of domestic violence. It was difficult to find an attorney who understood DV and actually stood up for me and my child. She fights hard and doesn't let anyone walk over her clients. She always gave me straightforward answers and was honest. I am grateful that Scottie helped with my case.

I found Scottie after talking to about 10 different lawyers, some were overly aggressive, promising the moon and soon and asking for a lot of money. I wanted a lawyer who cared about me as a person, understood my position as a single mom and who I knew would truly be an advocate for myself and my baby. That is Exactly what Scottie was! She not only kicked butt in the court room but she gave me back my voice after I was kicked down mentally and verbally from the abuse I endured via the father of my child. Scottie was always very realistic about how the courts handle custody cases and what I could

AMAZING lawyer. I found Scottie through a reference and boy did she deliver!! My custody battle has finally come to an end after FIVE long years. Through those years, I rotated counsel 3 different times in search of someone who would be a true advocate for my daughter and I. Scottie was thorough, thoughtful, and dare I even say, savage! In a good way. She knew her plan, how to execute it, and what to put in place if those plans fell through. I also really appreciated her being honest and fair with the cost of her services.
Armed with undeniable knowledge and tenacity, Scottie has single handedly

I had a very complicated, very contentious move away (out of state) custody case. Thank God a friend recommended Scottie. As difficult as my case was, Scottie helped me manage it very well even from TN. Scottie was able to get me everything I wanted and more. She got me far more time with my daughter than I expected. I cannot thank Scottie enough for everything she's done to help me.
If you have to do battle, I highly recommend Scottie at the helm. She has the spirit of a warrior and will fight for you.
