WHO WE ARE

Duncan Family Law.

Duncan Family Law serves clients throughout Los Angeles County in divorce and family law matters involving children, finances, businesses, and the future they are working to protect.

We believe exceptional legal representation is built on thoughtful strategy, careful preparation, sound judgment, and clear communication. Our role is not simply to advocate for our clients, but to help them make well-informed decisions during one of life’s most significant transitions.

Our Philosophy

End your marriage well.

Divorce ends a marriage. It doesn’t have to destroy your financial future, your relationship with your children, or your ability to move forward with confidence. At Duncan Family Law, we believe every important decision should be measured against four principles.

Protect

Protect what matters most — your children, your finances, your future, and your peace of mind.

Prepare

The strongest outcomes rarely happen by accident. Careful preparation creates leverage, credibility, and better options.

Resolve

Whenever possible, resolve disputes efficiently and thoughtfully. Litigation should always be purposeful, and conflict should never become the goal.

Rebuild

A successful divorce isn't just about obtaining favorable court orders. It's about creating the foundation for the next chapter of your life.

How We Practice

Family law is all we do.

Our work spans high net worth divorce, complex property division, contested child custody, support, and emergency domestic violence matters throughout Los Angeles and Beverly Hills.

Why Clients Choose Duncan Family Law

Prepared for trial, built to settle

Every case is prepared as though it will ultimately be decided by a judge. That preparation frequently produces stronger settlements.

Honest advice

You'll hear the truth about your case from day one — including the strong points and the weak ones. Good strategy begins with facts.

Command of the details

Family law cases turn on nuance: a date, a transfer, a pattern nobody else charted. We know the facts of your case more deeply than anyone else in the room.

Discretion by default

Confidential consultations, careful handling of sensitive information, and a preference for resolving matters privately whenever possible.

Why Choose Us

How a Case Moves

A clear path through an unclear time.

Consultation

A confidential conversation about your situation, goals, and the realistic paths forward.

Strategy

A plan built on the specific facts of your case — assets, children, timing, and leverage.

Discovery

The financial and factual record, assembled and deeply understood.

Negotiation

Resolution pursued from strength — most cases settle, and settle better, when trial is a credible option.

Trial, if necessary

When the other side leaves no fair alternative, your case is prepared for the courtroom.

Who We Help

Life's most difficult family law issues.

Whether you’re ending a long-term marriage, protecting a closely held business, securing custody of your children, or responding to emergency domestic violence allegations, we understand what’s at stake. Our attorneys regularly represent:

  • Business owners & entrepreneurs
  • Physicians, attorneys, executives, and other professionals
  • Real estate investors
  • Entertainment industry professionals
  • Stay-at-home parents & spouses
