Irvine, CA family law attorney Amanda Beall talks about her approach to custody cases. She emphasizes that nearly all family law matters require a tailored approach, particularly in child custody cases. When beginning work on a new custody matter, she makes it a priority to meet with her client in person to fully understand their concerns and needs. From there, she develops a legal strategy designed to address those needs and achieve the client’s specific goals.

She notes that her approach varies significantly depending on the circumstances: recommendations in cases where parents can co-parent peacefully are very different from strategies in high-conflict situations. This is why she stresses the importance of taking the time to meet with clients and thoroughly understand the unique concerns of each case.
