Kevin M. Cecil | Sacramento Divorce & Family Lawyer

I recently handled a case whereby a father, my client, was desirous to relocate with their 12-year-old son to Australia. There were no final custody orders in place, so the pendulum could have swung either way. In the end, through effective preparation and advocacy, the court agreed with our position and permitted the relocation to move forward.

I treat people like people, not like numbers. It is not important to simply show care for clients and their situations, but to actually CARE. Be kind and respectful to opposing parties, opposing counsel, court staff, and judges, and good things are bound to happen.

Honesty, integrity, fairness, expertise, empathy/sympathy, and a heartbeat.

Local knowledge is very important in my area of practice since the culture and processes from one family court to another, from one county to another, can vary quite considerably. Add in the fact that all counties have local rules, it is vitally important to be up to date on all substantive and procedural aspects from one county to the ext.

I provide reduced-rate consultations, and the information provided typically depends on the specific case and the scope of services sought. Ultimately, my goal is to evaluate the case, and then determine and explain to the potential client what I believe to be the most advantageous way to proceed in order to meet their goals.

Date of marriage, date of separation, dates of birth, children's names and dates of birth, if applicable, current address

I have been involved in the greater Sacramento area legal community for virtually my entire life, I am a hard worker, and I genuinely care about our clients and the outcomes of their cases.

Helping others in their greatest times of need.

I enjoy my bulldog Charlie, basketball, baseball, football (fantasy included), golf, the great outdoors, leisure reading, exercising on my Peloton, and live music!

Extremely so....however, the ongoing pandemic has made it somewhat more difficult to be as open and visible in public
