How long does the divorce process take?
California law requires a waiting period of at least 6 months and one day after the Petition has been served. Often times though, divorces take much longer than 6 months to resolve.
How long do I receive/pay alimony for?
If your marriage is under 10 years, a good rule of thumb is to expect to pay/receive support for one-half the length of the marriage. Marriages over 10 years in length are considered to be long term marriages, and chances are that there will be no automatic termination of spousal support after a certain period of time.

We have an agreement for our divorce, and we just want to get that entered. Do we really have to go to court?
In many cases, people complete their divorce through paperwork and never appear in front of a judge. At the same time, you need to be very careful that your agreement is drafted very carefully and that it is properly filed so that you are actually legally divorced.
My spouse cheated on me, and I want to tell the court that so they will know our divorce is his fault. Can I do that?
California is considered a “no fault state,” which means that the Court cannot make orders against the other side solely because the divorce is his or her fault. In general, your judge will not be interested in the reason for your divorce unless it has a direct and negative impact on your children.
I am so serious when I say that my thinking before meeting Cristin was that there was no life for me, I had simply made too many mistakes in life. I couldn’t even imagine a future without this case over my head. I owe Cristin so much. Thank you for giving me hope and being there when I needed you most. What Cristin does is so much more than just practicing law, you can’t put price tag on all you do. The whole team’s dedication and professionalism is just simply amazing, thank you.

The Dissomaster™ Program
The DissoMaster™ program is used by almost all family law professionals to determine guideline child and spousal support payments in the State of California. It has been used in the California judicial system for over 20 years. The DissoMaster™ program is one of the few programs certified by the California Judicial Council for use in making support calculations in California. The DissoMaster™ program was designed by attorneys to follow the guidelines set out in the California Family Law Code. We always use the most current version of the DissoMaster™ available so you know that you are getting the correct support amount.
The DissoMaster™ program is also used to calculate the guideline spousal support amount in cases that may have just spousal support or involve both child and spousal support.
While the California Family Law Code states an algebraic formula to calculate child support, it is almost never used in actual practice. Since the algebraic formula requires the use of net income to determine the support amount, there is plenty of room for error when using the net income you think is the correct amount.
Net income on your paycheck is determined by a great number of circumstances, which may not reflect your actual year-end net income. That is why the DissoMaster™ is so important. It actually calculates the correct net income to determine the accurate amount of support.
Our firm has over two decades of experience in using the DissoMaster™ program. We have done literally tens of thousands of reports for our clients. This is what we do all day, every day. We do not just enter your information into a database and generate your support payment. Every report is carefully done by one of our staff who looks over EVERY line of your report and checks to make sure that the support amount is correct.
California Family Law Code 4055 states an algebraic formula for calculating child support payments:
(a) The statewide uniform guideline for determining child support orders is as follows:
CS = K (HN – (H%) (TN)
It is computed using the net disposable income of both parents. The items that may be deducted from the gross salaries are defined in section 4059. This is a complicated formula that takes into account the actual tax responsibilities and circumstances of each party.

We have never seen child support calculated by the actual formula stated in the California Family Law Code. It is almost without fail calculated by a program, usually the DissoMaster™ program.
The program most frequently used by California Family Law Professionals is the DissoMaster™ program. It takes into account actual tax liabilities and circumstances of each party to quickly and accurately calculate support payments.
The DissoMaster™ has been the standard for calculating child support payments for over two decades.

We are a company located in California that provides child and spousal support calculations using the DissoMaster™ program. We specialize ONLY in California child and spousal support calculations. The DissoMaster™ program has been used in California for over two decades and is widely used by California Family Law Professionals throughout the entire state. All our reports are emailed directly to you in PDF format, usually within hours.
Our goal is to work WITH you to determine if your support payments are what they should be now. We don’t just enter your data into a program, we carefully examine your information and even run different scenarios to make sure that your support is best for your circumstances. We go over your report and try to find things that you may not be aware of or forgot that will make your support payment a better fit for your budget. Time and many other things will change the amount of your support payments, and they may be greater or lower than your last Court Order.
Your support payments could be off by several hundred dollars a month, maybe even more. Most of our clients save thousands of dollars each year by using our services. The only way to know if your support payment is correct is to run a current DissoMaster™ report. See what some of our actual clients save each month here on our Client Savings page.
By using our services you are not getting a “guesstimate” of what your support should be. You are getting the same calculation that the judge will most likely run. We feel you are entitled to get the same child support amount the Court would order, so we use the DissoMaster™ program which is the program used most often by California Family Law Professionals.
