Specialties
Pasadena family law attorney Richard Jacinto has over 30 years of legal experience and he has dealt with nearly every family law issue you can imagine. These include:
Spousal rights. Advising and counseling on issues relating to child support, custody, spousal support and domestic violence matters. Mr. Jacinto will protect your right to reasonable visitation if you are not the primary custodian or see that you are safe if domestic abuse is an issue. Should your case involve spousal support, he will advise you of it reasonableness and your right to receive it in certain cases.
Child custody. These can very difficult issues. Custody is determined on what is in the child’s best interests and the court will review the character of the parents, conduct, parenting skills, criminal history, evidence of alcohol or drug abuse, child’s preference, if mature enough, and the continuity and stability of the parent’s home and environment.
Child support. Both parents are obligated to support their children though the custodial parent is presumed to be contributing significantly.
Asset and property distribution. Mr. Jacinto can help you determine what a marital asset is and help negotiate, if needed, an agreement on the division of certain assets and debt obligations.
Other issues: Domestic violence, adoption and premarital agreements.

I believe that family is sacred. When problems come up in this area, it takes an added measure of sensitivity to find justice and peace in the legal process. That’s what I am all about when we have to tackle tough family issues: spousal rights, child custody, child support, spousal support or alimony and splitting up the assets. We are all affected when friction presents itself within our families. In order to move forward, someone must be strong to ask for what they need, make sure it’s being done fairly and legally, and make sure that the tough reality of a family split gets approached in the best possible way. That’s exactly where I thrive and want to help the most. As an attorney, I am asking you to open up and share the family problems and to let us tackle and solve them together. I’ve been doing it for 30 years now and I’ve figured out a really good way to solve these issues common to humans everyone.
