Presser & Robin

At Robin, Ferguson & Kempton, we understand that every family law matter is unique and requires a customized approach. We are a law firm dedicated exclusively to family law, and our experienced attorneys have over 45 years of combined experience. Our team, led by partners Douglas Robin, Julia S. Ferguson, and Alissa Kempton, is committed to providing empathetic, candid, and effective representation to individuals going through the process of divorce, custody, property division, nullities, paternity, domestic violence restraining orders, spousal support, and child support.

Our Approach

We believe that each family law case is unique, and our approach reflects this. We work collaboratively with our clients to tailor strategies and identify resources to help them accomplish their goals, protect their rights, and move forward with their lives. Our team recognizes that every situation is complex, involving financial, emotional, and legal variables. We strive to understand the dynamics between the parties, the spouse's attorney, and the judge in the case.

Our Services

We offer a range of services to our clients, including:

Litigation: When settlement is not possible, our experienced litigators work vigorously, strategically, and intelligently to uphold our clients' rights under California law. We have a proven track record in litigation, both in motion practice and trial work.

Mediation: Mediation is a productive and efficient way to resolve family law disputes. Our experienced mediators guide clients and their spouses through the process, helping them reach a mutually agreed-upon outcome.

Consulting Counsel: If clients prefer to negotiate their own divorce or need a second opinion, we provide valuable resources to support them.

Collaborative Practice: This alternative approach to divorce emphasizes open communication, respect, and cooperation between the parties. Our attorneys work closely with clients to identify goals and develop a personalized plan to achieve them.
