Child Custody

Alameda County Child Custody Lawyer

One of the most frightening things a child can hear are the words: "Your (dad/mom) and I are getting a divorce." But however hard divorce is on children, it is exponentially harder and more destructive when mom and dad cannot or will not agree to some type of joint custody agreement outside of court.

Seeing the Forest through the Trees

At the Law Offices of Wallace C. Doolittle, we help clients in Alameda County and throughout the San Francisco Bay Area work through and resolve child custody differences. When viewed against the backdrop of the children's overall emotional health and well-being, these differences are not really worth fighting over in court.

As our firm, we take this view to resolving child custody issues because our attorney, Wallace C. Doolittle, has been through the divorce and child custody process himself and has a deeply personal understanding of how these matters affect children. If there is any possibility that litigation involving child custody can be avoided—he will find it.

Of course, we understand that there are some instances—like alcoholism, drug addiction, or abuse—that make litigating for sole or primary custody the best option to protect the interests of your children. If this is true in your case, you can rely on the extensive experience we have in litigation and the business-minded approach we take to researching, documenting, and preparing evidence to help us achieve a positive outcome in your case.
