McManis Faulkner, a leading Northern California trial firm, was named “The Best Family Law Firm” in The Recorder’s annual survey, for the third consecutive year. Voted to the top spot by the Northern California legal community through online polling, the firm’s Family Law Practice was ranked in the “Lawyer to Lawyer” category.
“Resolution of family legal issues requires discretion and sensitivity, as well as expertise. Earning our peers’ recognition of our Family Law Practice for three consecutive years suggests our focus on client service is well-placed,” said James McManis, head of the firm. “Our firm has long had one of Northern California’s preeminent family law practices. We are honored that the legal community continues to affirm this.”
For more than 40 years, McManis Faulkner has represented individuals in family law matters. Headed by Partner, Catherine Bechtel, the Family Law Practice has earned a reputation for successful outcomes for all parties involved in sensitive issues, such as marital and domestic partnership dissolutions, separation disputes, domestic violence and issues stemming from drug or alcohol dependency, child custody, visitation and support, spousal support, valuation of property and division of assets and “move away” and abduction issues (domestic and international).
