Family Law Services We Offer in San Francisco
We help families work through major life changes with smart, efficient legal solutions. Our family law attorneys in the Bay Area offer legal support in matters such as:
If your case involves overlapping issues, we’ll build a strategy that accounts for all of them. Our legal team understands how each decision affects the next.
Bay Area Divorce Lawyers for Simple and Complex Cases
As a divorce attorney in San Francisco, we offer flexible legal solutions based on your needs. We provide flat-rate services for uncontested divorces when the marriage is short-term, and the assets are limited.
For more complex cases, we offer tailored representation that protects both your legal rights and your long-term financial health. High-asset divorce often involves:
- Division of real estate and investment properties
- Business ownership and valuation disputes
- Retirement accounts and stock portfolios
- Complex compensation packages (e.g., RSUs, stock options, deferred compensation, and bonuses)
- Separate property claims with limited documentation
- Support requests tied to lifestyle and long-term need
As a Bay Area divorce lawyer, we prepare every document carefully and build each case as if it may go to trial. That approach helps us resolve cases faster and on better terms.
High-Asset Divorce Attorneys Who Protect What You’ve Built
Dividing property in a high-asset divorce takes more than simple math. It demands strategy, documentation, and professional insight. We represent clients with real estate holdings, business interests, complex compensation packages, retirement accounts, and other high value assets that require careful treatment under California’s community property laws.
We trace the source of each asset and clarify what belongs to the marital estate. That includes reviewing titles, loan documents, corporate records, and personal agreements. When needed, we bring in forensic accountants, certified appraisers, and business valuation experts to support your case.
Our attorneys protect your rights through every phase. If negotiation fails, we litigate with a clear focus and strong documentation.

Local Child Custody Attorneys Focused on Stability and Safety
California Family Code § 3011 guides how courts decide custody.
Judges focus on the child’s health, safety, and welfare. They also look at the parent-child relationship, history of abuse, substance use, and how well each parent supports a consistent routine.
We work with clients to develop parenting plans that reflect both the law and their goals for their children. When parents cannot reach agreement, we present those plans to the court and advocate for custody arrangements that advance our client’s objectives while prioritizing the child’s stability and safety. Our role includes outlining schedules, decision-making rights, and dispute-resolution methods, as well as presenting strong arguments in contested hearings when necessary.We offer clear legal direction and fast action for parents facing relocation, school disagreements, or safety concerns.
Our San Francisco child custody attorneys know how different counties handle these cases. That local knowledge helps us build stronger arguments and avoid unnecessary delays.
Why Clients Choose Us Over Larger Family Law Firms
Clients hire us because they want a real relationship with their attorney, not a rotating staff or vague answers. You’ll work directly with the lawyer handling your case, and you’ll always know what to expect next.
We return calls. We file on time. We explain the law in plain language. And we give you a plan based on facts, not guesses.
We’re selective with our cases so that each client gets personal attention. That’s especially important for high-conflict matters involving children, domestic violence, or large financial disputes.

Working with Arusyak was a smooth and reassuring experience. She’s sharp, responsive, and genuinely cares about her clients. I felt supported and informed at every step , I couldn’t have asked for better representation. My case was pending over 2 years and she was able to bring to an end.Posted on Laura BenesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My experience with Arusyak was excellent from start to finish. She’s not only an expert in her field but also approachable and easy to work with. I appreciate her transparency and the way she always prioritized my best interests. She explained all parts of the process of premarital agreements and the nuances with great care and attention to detail.Posted on Goat Boi FzoyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t thank Arusyak enough for her help. She’s incredibly responsive and trustworthy… always available to answer questions and provide guidance. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable attorney in the Bay Area. Not that I expected it to be the case, but I would often get answers immediately via email after business hours. I can tell both her and Natalie love what they do and do it with great professionalism.Posted on Megan EiseleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Outstanding service from start to finish. Arusyak was attentive, professional, and truly cared about achieving the best possible outcome for my case. Unfortunately a lot of my friends needed her services the last 3 years and we all had to discuss how lucky we were to find Arusyak to handle our divorces. Some parts of my cases were extremely emotional and complicated, she handled with confidence and calmness. Very impressed.Posted on Yi-Chun KuoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Arusyak and Bay Area Law Group. From our first consultation, she was professional, attentive, and honest. Her guidance made all the difference, and the outcome exceeded my expectations. As she was my 2nd attorney and I had a bad experience with my former attorney, I was very happy I was in good hands.Posted on Chris KostantewiczTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m very grateful to have found Arusyak. She communicated clearly, set realistic expectations, and delivered excellent results. It’s rare to find an attorney who combines both expertise and empathy so well. Highly recommend Bay Area Law Group. While I only worked with Natalie over email, her attention to detail was also very impressive.Posted on Krystina TaskerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Arusyak was incredibly thorough and compassionate throughout my case. She took the time to explain all my options, answered every question, and made a stressful process feel manageable. Her attention to detail and professionalism truly set her apart.Posted on Tae NguyenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am deeply thankful for Arusyak's support and expertise in my recent domestic violence case, where I was wrongfully accused by my ex. Referred by my divorce lawyer, choosing Arusyak proved to be an excellent decision. To be in a divorce, with alot of strong negative feeling, and helpiness, and financial burden is already overwhelming. Then find a attonery to help you is even more difficult. I am so happy that I was able to find Arusyak. Arusyak, with a deserved 5-star or even more rating, truly cares for her clients. Navigating through lawyers, child custody, and divorce is stressful and costly, but Arusyak's reasonable fees and professionalism made it more bearable. In my case, my ex's lawyer used questionable tactics. They agreed to withdraw the Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) due to improper application and weak evidence but didn't file for dismissal as promised. Arusyak's vigilance was key. She noticed the discrepancy and represented me on Zoom with the San Mateo Court, averting a potential default judgment against me. Her meticulousness was crucial. I'm immensely grateful to Arusyak. It's comforting to find lawyers genuinely dedicated to resolving clients' problems rather than just profiting. I highly recommend her services and am thankful for her aid, hoping she continues to assist others as she did me.Posted on Erick VargasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. She is professional and acknowledgeable I had less than 12 hours to hire a lawyer before my first hearing,contacted a few lawyers around the san Francisco area and even with short notice she was able to pick up my case. I'm not from california and being from out of state it was kinda hard to find a lawyer without not knowing who is representing you. I put My trust in Ms. Arusyak and I was not disappointed. It has been the best decision I have ever made. If you are need of a lawyer please don't hesitate to hire her! I highly recommend her!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
