DIVORCE IN CENTURY CITY · THE WESTSIDE

The towers along Avenue of the Stars are full of law firm partners, agents, and finance executives, and the condos around them house the people who work those jobs. Divorce at this income level turns on characterizing compensation correctly, because a partnership draw, a bonus pool, and carried interest all divide differently depending on when and how they were earned.

Opposing counsel will know Todd Spodek's name from Inventing Anna, and behind that reputation sits a second-generation firm with 1,100+ five-star Google reviews. When you reach out, the initial consultation is risk-free, and we encourage open dialogue so we understand your situation completely before mapping out the strategy.

California divorce runs on the same rules wherever you live: no-fault grounds, the 6-month residency requirement, community property division, and a waiting period of 6 months and 1 day from service before your marital status ends. What changes with your address is the courthouse, the judges, and the local procedures - and that is exactly what we handle for you. When you reach out, you start with a risk-free consultation, and you can ask us anything you want.

The cases we see in Century City.

FROM THE FILE
01
Dividing a partnership interest

A law or finance partnership acquired during the marriage carries community value, but firm agreements restrict transfers and complicate valuation. We work with forensic experts who know how these interests are actually priced, then negotiate buyouts that satisfy the community without wrecking your standing at the firm.

02
When your spouse hires aggressive counsel

Century City divorces often feature sophisticated lawyers on both sides, and posturing can burn six figures before anyone reaches the merits. We match aggression when it is real and cut through it when it is theater, keeping the pressure on outcomes rather than billable hours.

03
Protecting stock and accounts mid-case

The moment the summons is served, automatic restraining orders bar both spouses from transferring property, changing insurance, or making unusual financial moves. We use those ATROs to shut down gamesmanship early, and we make sure your own routine transactions are structured so they never look like violations.

FAQ

Questions we hear - ask us anything.

Which courthouse will my Century City divorce be filed in?

01

Century City divorces are typically assigned to the Santa Monica Courthouse, 1725 Main St, which serves most of the Westside for family law. Assignment generally depends on ZIP code, so we verify that your address maps there before your petition is filed with the court.

How is a business or partnership valued in divorce?

02

Valuation usually involves forensic accountants examining earnings, comparable sales, and goodwill, and California law lets courts value professional practices in ways that surprise their owners. The date of valuation, the treatment of goodwill, and who pays the experts all get negotiated or litigated, and we have handled each of those fights at every asset size.

What do the automatic restraining orders stop me from doing?

03

The ATROs printed on every California divorce summons prohibit both spouses from taking children out of state, transferring or concealing property, and changing insurance beneficiaries while the case is pending. They bind you and your spouse equally from service onward, and violating them carries real consequences, so we walk you through what needs court permission first.
