East Contra Costa County Property Division Attorney

California Property Division

William C. Ulrich, Family Law Attorney in Antioch, California, has extensive experience in the division of community assets, and the recognition and preservation of separate property assets under complex Family Law Statutes.

One of my primary goals is to help clients identify marital and separate property that is unknown to them or which they would not otherwise recognize.

I assist clients in a comprehensive tracing of property interests to determine what can be considered separate property and what is designated as marital, or community property and subject to division between the spouses.

It is important to recognize there are valuable property interests in life insurance policies, investment accounts, retirement/pension accounts, various sorts of investments and business interests, as well as in the "hard" items such as vehicles, real property, and other readily-identifiable assets. It is also important to examine the proper characterization of debt, and I am are careful to assess the debt situation in the context of your credit rating, possible Bankruptcy issues, and any other fair means of evaluating the situation to your benefit as far as property division is concerned.

Aggressive representation, with compassionate care.

The unique background of Family Law Attorney William C. Ulrich brings a special perspective to the issues of property settlement in a divorce action. This is another area in which it is often possible to achieve positive results through negotiation, and my experience enables me to isolate those situations where aggressive litigation is necessary to define and appropriately divide community debts and assets to my client's advantage as possible under the law.
