The San Fernando Valley is one of the most diverse communities in Los Angeles.For many families here, divorce doesn't just affect property and custody.It affects immigration status.If your spouse sponsored your green card and your marriage is ending, what you file and when you file it matters more than most people realize.A few things that regularly catch people off guard:The I-864 Affidavit of Support your spouse signed doesn't end when the divorce does. That financial obligation can continue for years after.If you hold a conditional green card, divorce during the 2-year period requires a different legal strategy than a standard green card situation.VAWA protection exists specifically for people in abusive marriages where immigration status has been used as a control tactic. It's completely confidential from your spouse.These two areas of law — immigration and family law — are rarely handled by the same office.We handle both.More information at ghazilawgroup.com/family-lawyer-san-fernando-valley.#ImmigrationLaw #familylaw #sanfernandovalley #VAWA #GreenCard #ConditionalResident #shermanoaks #immigrationattorney #divorceandimmigration #sfvlaw #I864 #ghazilawgroup #FamilyLawAttorney #LosAngelesImmigration #VAWAProtection ...

A prenup doesn't mean you expect the marriage to fail.It means you're having an honest conversation about money before the stress of a divorce forces you to.In California, a prenuptial agreement can protect:— A business you built before the marriage— An inheritance you expect to receive— Assets you're bringing in from a previous marriage— Retirement accounts with decades of contributionsBut here's what most people don't know:California has strict rules about how prenups must be signed to be enforceable.Presented the night before the wedding?Likely unenforceable.Signed without independent legal counsel for both parties? Courts will look hard at that.Missing full financial disclosure from both sides?The agreement may not hold up at all.If you're planning to marry and want to protect what you've built, the time to talk to an attorney is before the wedding — not years later.More information at ghazilawgroup.com/family-lawyer-san-fernando-valley#prenup #prenuptialagreement #CaliforniaLaw #familylaw #shermanoaks #sanfernandovalley #marriageplanning #assetprotection #FamilyLawAttorney #UPAA #californiaprenup #secondmarriage #ghazilawgroup #sfvlaw #WeddingPlanning ...

Most custody cases in Los Angeles County never see a courtroom.Here's why:Before any contested custody hearing, LA County requires both parents to go through Family Court Services mediation.A neutral mediator meets with both of you — sometimes together, sometimes separately — and helps work out a parenting plan.Over 80% of cases reach an agreement at this stage.The ones that don't go in front of a judge, who then decides for you.If you're facing a custody dispute in the San Fernando Valley, understanding this process before you file changes how you prepare, what you document, and how you show up.The standard the court applies is always the same:best interests of the child.Not who earns more. Not who has the bigger house.Not who filed first.We handle custody cases for families in Sherman Oaks, Encino, Van Nuys, Studio City, Northridge, and Woodland Hills.Full guide at ghazilawgroup.com/family-lawyer-san-fernando-valley#childcustody #sanfernandovalley #familylaw #losangelesfamily #CustodyAttorney #shermanoaks #CoParenting #californiacustody #FamilyCourt #VanNuysCourthouse #ghazilawgroup #sfvfamilylaw #ParentingPlan #DivorceWithKids #FamilyLawAttorney ...

California is a community property state.That means everything earned during your marriage — income, retirement accounts, the house, the business — belongs equally to both of you.It doesn't matter whose name is on the account.It doesn't matter who worked and who stayed home.It doesn't matter who paid the bills.If it was acquired during the marriage, it splits 50/50.Most people only learn this when they're already in the middle of a divorce.Knowing how California property rules work before you file changes how you approach everything — what you protect, what you negotiate, and what you walk away with.We work with families across Sherman Oaks, Encino, Van Nuys, Studio City, and Woodland Hills on exactly these situations.Full guide to family law in the San Fernando Valley at ghazilawgroup.com/family-lawyer-san-fernando-valley#familylaw #sanfernandovalley #CaliforniaDivorce #communityproperty #DivorceAttorney #shermanoaks #FamilyLawAttorney #losangeleslaw #divorcehelp #CaliforniaFamilyLaw #sfvlaw #VanNuys #encino #woodlandhills #ghazilawgroup ...

AMAZING IMMIGRATION ATTORNEY

I needed to apply for my status adjustment throught marriage to get my greencard, Mrs. Ghazi was recommended to me by a family friend, after i set up a consultation, Mrs. Ghazi did such a great job at answering all my questions, she made me feel comfortable from the first day, so i hired her as my attorney, through out the whole process Mrs. Ghazi was on top of everything, she is very responsive and very thorough with all answers, she is very professional but at the same time very friendly, i totally felt so safe and secure through out the whole process i knew i was in great hands, i received my green card in a very short time period
I would definitely recommend Mrs. Ghazi to anyone that is looking for a great sharp attorney, who has great experience in her field of practice, I am so happy and so greatful for all the hard work Mrs. Ghazi put in for me and my wife.

Thank you so much Nazanin for everything
