After going through my own divorce in my early-20s at the Torrance courthouse, I went to law school, became an attorney, and established a family law office in Torrance in 2013 to assist other families in transition. After 10 years of grueling court battles, and after I became a parent to young children, I made a conscientious decision to step away from the courtroom and work with families using mediation and collaborative divorce principles of conflict resolution.

I provide family law mediation, collaborative law and litigation services in divorce matters; also preparation of prenuptial, post-nuptial and transmutation agreements. I was a former partner of a prominent Century City family law firm which represented clients in cases involving complex property characterization and tracing; valuation issues; contested child custody; and child and spousal support issues.

Eve Lopez is an attorney practicing family law including, divorces, paternity actions, child custody and visitation, child support, spousal support, pre-nuptial agreements, and move away matters.

If I take your case you can expect to get and receive text messages, emails and phone calls from me since you will be involved and informed and get copies of everything pertaining to your case.

My focus is on YOUR GOALS, and I will do everything in my power to help you, from negotiating with the Court and opposing counsel, to using experts and mediators but always preparing to go to trial if need...
