Argyris Mah, LLP: California Board-Certified Family Law Specialists in San Jose

By Expert Attorneys

Argyris Mah, LLP is a San Jose firm that practices family law exclusively. Partners Arlette Argyris and Andrea Mah founded the office in 2015. Both are Certified Family Law Specialists certified by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization. They bring more than 20 years of collective experience to the work.

Arlette Argyris has practiced only family law since earning her law degree from the University of Oklahoma College of Law in 2010. Andrea Mah, a graduate of the University of San Francisco School of Law, spent more than five years as a senior associate at a San Jose firm before co-founding the practice. The firm serves Santa Clara County as well as Alameda and San Mateo counties, including Campbell, Cupertino, Los Gatos, Palo Alto, and Sunnyvale.

The docket covers divorce and legal separation, high-asset divorce, property and retirement division, child custody and visitation, move-away cases, child and spousal support, paternity, domestic violence restraining orders, and prenuptial and postnuptial agreements. Move-away work is a custody fight about a proposed relocation, which is a different issue from an initial visitation schedule. Retirement division is part of the property work in a marriage that includes pensions or other retirement accounts, and it comes up often in high-asset files.

The firm emphasizes mediation and aims to keep matters out of court when possible. When necessary, the attorneys litigate. That approach applies across the docket, including support and custody cases and agreements signed before or after the marriage.

Clients in Santa Clara, Alameda, or San Mateo County reach the firm at the San Jose office on Asbury Street. The exclusive family-law focus, the California board certifications held by both partners, and the preference for mediation before trial are what that office is set up to do.

Paternity cases and domestic violence restraining orders are part of that exclusive family-law docket, not referred out as a different kind of practice.
