Introduction to Steven Leff

I’ve been an attorney for 25 years–over 25 years–and almost all of those years have been devoted exclusively to the practice of Family Law.

Family Law consists of such matters as dissolution of marriage proceeding, which some of us know as divorce; child custody and visitation issues; child support issues; spousal support issues, which some of us know as alimony; and property issues, which has to do with your real estate and your personal possessions, including bank accounts. I also deal with such issues as paternity actions and restraining orders.

I understand that divorce (or dissolution of marriage) can be rather confusing, and certainly rather complex. Once retained, I will guide you through this process and try to obtain the maximum result with the minimum amount of difficulty, embarrassment, cost, or confusion to you.

I support men, and I support women equally. There’s no favoritism when it comes to gender. I will do the best job as possible for both men and women.

We’re going to sit down and see what’s best for you, as an individual. Everybody’s situation is different. So, we’re going to see what your situation is. That means your family life; that means your assets and your obligations; that means your income; that means your situation in regards to your children; and then we’re going to determine what can be done, specifically for you, that puts you in the best situation possible.

My office is located in the City of San Mateo. It’s conveniently located very close to El Camino Real and Highway 92.
