Families can be complicated. That’s why when you need to get a legal professional involved in your personal matters, you want to be sure that they are an expert in the laws that will directly affect you and your family.
Here at MeyerPink, we’re fortunate to have a certified family law specialist on staff for exactly that: April Meyer is a seasoned attorney with the skills and experience to assist in any family law matters that might arise.
Legal specialization like this is a way for attorneys to demonstrate their expertise in a specific area of law. The State Bar of California created programs like these as a means to enhance public legal protection, as well as encourage lawyers to pursue additional education and increase competency in their field of interest.
To obtain this certification, April had to pass an additional, specialized bar exam in California, on top of other requirements, including significant experience in the area of family law, as well as recommendations from other legal colleagues familiar with her work. She also completes at least 36 hours of continuing education every three years and must resubmit proof of compliance and references every five years to maintain her certification. Less than 0.5% of lawyers in California have achieved this level of commitment to and expertise in family law.
April has XX years of experience representing parties in family law cases; dissolutions; child custody and visitation; support matters; guardianship issues; and domestic violence cases. Contact us today to schedule an initial consultation with April to determine the best steps forward in your particular situation. We invite you to work with an accomplished family law attorney and meet our legal team to secure the representation you deserve.
