Van Voorhis & Sosna LLP is a firm specializing in all areas of family law in the San Francisco Bay Area, including divorce (dissolution), child custody, child support, spousal support (alimony), parentage (paternity), domestic partnership issues, same-sex marriage and divorce issues, and premarital (prenuptial) agreements. We also frequently act as advising or consulting attorneys to clients participating in mediation--we encourage clients to settle their disputes, and we don't get in the way of a mutual agreement. Nevertheless, our experience has proven that vigorously preparing for a trial through strategic litigation often leads to a better, quicker settlement.

We understand that separation and divorce is often the most difficult time of a person's life. How you resolve your divorce will impact every aspect of your future: your finances, your family, your children, your lifestyle, even your retirement. We are dedicated to representing every client with integrity, dedication, and with the understanding that you are trusting us to resolve your divorce or family law matter as if you were a member of our family.

We limit our practice to family law (divorce, custody, domestic partner dissolution) in the San Francisco Bay Area, including San Francisco County, San Mateo County, Alameda County, Marin County and Contra Costa County. Ms. Van Voorhis and Ms. Sosna both attended law school in the San Francisco Bay Area (Stanford Law School and UC Hastings College of the Law). Ms. Sosna is a San Francisco native, having attended Washington High School and Cal (University of California, Berkeley). Ms. Van Voorhis has lived in the San Francisco Bay Area for fifteen years, having moved west from Park City, Utah to attend Stanford Law School.
