Schoenberg Family Law Group, P.C., recognizes that family law matters involve complex, sensitive issues that can have a lasting impact on you, your family, your finances and your future. Because family law presents complicated issues whose outcomes are critical, experienced and compassionate guidance is essential. Our San Francisco law practice, founded by a board-certified specialist* who has practiced law for nearly 40 years, focuses exclusively on divorce and family law. Debra R. Schoenberg leads a talented team of attorneys that serves diverse clients in
San Francisco, Alameda, Contra Costa, San Mateo, Santa Clara and all the Bay Area counties. We handle the most complex and challenging divorce and child custody disputes, representing entrepreneurs, executives, professionals and spouses of high net worth individuals. We are also accessible to any spouse or parent who needs a combination of thoughtful counsel and forceful advocacy.
We are trial lawyers who litigate high-conflict, high-stakes cases. While we try to build on mediation efforts and exhaust opportunities for a negotiated agreement, emotions, egos and various other realities often force these disputes into court. It is critical to work with a firm that knows how to apply the law and the facts in your favor, whether in the courtroom or at the negotiating table.
It is also important to feel that your lawyer hears you, understands you and cares about the aspects of divorce that matter to you. We pride ourselves in connecting with our clients before we file papers or initiate legal proceedings. You should feel comfortable with your attorney’s style and strategies, and the lines of communication between you and your attorney should remain open throughout the process.
Schoenberg Family Law Group, P.C., handles highly sensitive and urgent matters such as domestic violence and child abductions. We routinely litigate complex asset division on behalf of clients with million-dollar incomes and multimillion-dollar marital estates. All of our lawyers are accomplished and well-versed in the nuances of California family law, which enables us to readily assign solid teams for our incoming cases.
