Q: help bufrication I need attorney help advise and documents fl 300

A: What is your question?

A: Check with your local bar association for an attorney referral. Also Justia.com has a referral service.

A: Under California law, bifurcation in a civil case allows for one or more issues to be separated from the others and tried separately, often to expedite a certain part of the case or when the issues are distinct enough to warrant individual attention. In family law, this often means that the marital status can be terminated while other issues like property division or spousal support are resolved later.

For the forms FL-300 to FL-305, these are related to family law matters such as requests for orders, and you would need to fill them out with the details of what you are requesting from the court. The Judicial Council of California provides these forms online with instructions.

If you feel a bifurcation is appropriate in your case, you would need to file a motion with the court using form FL-300 and explain why you believe bifurcation is necessary. If you're considering an appeal, whether the trial court has jurisdiction will depend on the specific details and procedural posture of your case.

Given the complexity of your situation, it's crucial to seek legal representation. An attorney can offer specific advice on bifurcation versus going to trial, preparing necessary documents, and any appeals or TROs (temporary restraining orders) you are considering. They can also provide guidance on the potential for alimony and asset division post-divorce.

You may also want to contact the California State Bar for a referral to an attorney who handles civil bifurcation and employment law matters. For the worker’s compensation case, you can seek a new attorney to represent you if your former attorney is unresponsive, and report your concerns to the State Bar if you believe there has been misconduct.
