Rancho Santa Fe is primarily composed of residential housing with one shopping avenue and several private schools.

Residents of Rancho Santa Fe have high assets and, often, high income. Some income is earned and some income is not earned. High assets cases, whether involving a residence in Rancho Santa Fe or support issues, can be extremely complicated. Doppelt and Forney, APLC, has represented Rancho Santa Fe residents in the past for complex issues. As the marital residence may be worth millions of dollars, deciding whether to keep the house or sell is a crucial decision. Valuation can be the difference between a buy out by one spouse or a sale. In additions, support issues can be complex when income may be from several different sources. Given that privacy is so important to Rancho Santa Fe residents, litigating your case in San Diego Family Law Court may not give you the privacy you would like as these files are open to the public. There are alternative dispute resolution strategies which may afford more privacy and can be explored with an experienced Rancho Santa Fe law firm and all options for both settlement and litigation can be examined in detail. Many more issues, including business valuation and separate property claims {whether be inheritance or by pre martial assets} can be significant as well.
