Oxnard Divorce Attorneys 
Providing Comprehensive and Compassionate Divorce Services

At SANTO MEHAS, A Professional Law Corporation, we are committed to achieving the most favorable divorce outcome for every client we serve. Backed by over 70 years of legal experience, we offer a wide range of divorce options to ensure we can best cater to our clients’ goals.

Our Oxnard divorce attorneys have the knowledge, experience, and skills to handle all aspects of your divorce, whether you take an amicable or adversarial approach.

Litigated Divorce Services

While an amicable divorce approach works for some couples, it is not the best option for everyone. At times, a litigated divorce is the only option. As these types of divorces can quickly get contentious, it is important to consult with an experienced divorce attorney who will fight to protect your interests.

With over 70 years of experience, our Oxnard divorce attorneys are dedicated to helping you navigate the process of a litigated divorce.

Mediation Services

At SANTO MEHAS A Professional Law Corporation, we also offer mediation services led by attorney Donna Carol Santo, a certified specialist, Family Law California Board of Legal Specialization and certified mediator through the Institute for Dispute Resolution, Pepperdine University School of Law.

Known as a form of alternative dispute resolution, divorce mediation is led by a neutral, third-party individual who helps you and your spouse come to an agreement regarding any issues you have about spousal support, child custody, and more.

Why You Need an Attorney to File for Divorce

If you are seeking a divorce, you might be wondering if you can file for divorce on your own. Here are some reasons why you should hire an attorney to represent your interests in a divorce:

Secure legal advice from a seasoned attorney

An experienced attorney will explain what your rights are while you go through the divorce process and make sure that your interests are protected throughout. Your attorney will also be able to help you file the correct paperwork, make sure you receive the best settlement possible, and can litigate on your behalf if your spouse refuses to come to a divorce agreement with you.

Reduce stress

Divorce is a stressful time for everyone involved. It is a time commitment and can take an emotional toll on both spouses. A divorce attorney can handle the logistics and paperwork for you, so that you can focus more on taking care of yourself and your family.

Avoid making costly mistakes

As the legal system is complex, it is easy to make a mistake as you file for divorce. Making a small mistake could negatively affect the outcome of your divorce. By hiring an attorney, you can rest assured that your case will be properly handled and that you will avoid costly mistakes.

An Emphasis on Strong Family Values

Our firm places a strong emphasis on the importance of family values. The balance between maintaining these family values and generating a better future for you and your family is one we strive to achieve with each case. Our values consist of:
  • Holistic Approach

    We aim to resolve conflict so you and your family can move on peacefully. We approach all aspects of a case, including the emotional, financial, and mental components, and advocate with you throughout.

    Collaborative divorce can be a great option for spouses looking to share joint custody of their child/children and the court looks favorably on this decision. When possible, we strive to come to a resolution that will benefit both spouses.

  • Children Come First

    We respect the fact that our clients trust us with important life-decisions. We strive to be as understanding and empathetic as we can with you and treat you like we would treat a close family member.

  • “5 stars is not enough.”
    5 stars is not enough. Mr. Mehas and Ms. Santo are the A team of attorneys. They are comprehensive, strategic, one step ahead, and a powerful team! When you hire the Santo Mehas firm to manage your case, you have hired a team of legal advocates who care, who will keep you informed, who will fight for you, and be the voice you need to represent you. Without the help of the entire firm, I know that I would not have had the successful outcomes I have had. They took on an extremely difficult case and encountered issues that no one expected and few had ever seen. They worked tirelessly to make sure that the truth was told and presented it perfectly. They stood by every one of my requests and guided me through the entire lengthy process. Though there were challenges, they strategically and diligently with compassion met them head on and never faltered. Their expertise and thoroughness provided us the pathway we needed to rise to victory. I am proud to be a client and will continue to retain them for all legal matters that may arise as I know I am in the best hands.
