Louis  Niven is a Certified Specialist in Family Law, Certified by the State Bar of California, Board of Legal Specialization since 1981.

Our most important assets are our clients. Our law firm works in "partnership" with our clients in attempting to accomplish the client’s objectives. We recognize that clients need lawyers with whom they can talk. It is important that clients and lawyers communicate so that they can work together toward the achievement of their objectives rather than merely reacting.

The most important quality of an enduring lawyer/client relationship is communication. We strive to maintain an open, candid dialogue with our clients.

Our sense of "partnership" with our clients illustrates an important principle:  we understand the meaning of being in a service business. For us to be successful in representing a client we must diligently assist our clients in achieving their goals and guiding them in the resolution of their legal needs.

We have a sense of urgency about our client’s needs and provide experienced and aggressive legal representation for our clients.
