AF Family Law operates in Sacramento, California, providing family law representation across Sacramento, Yolo, and Placer counties. Founded by attorney Jessica Abdollahi, the firm focuses exclusively on family law matters with an approach emphasizing strategic action over unnecessary conflict. The practice has resolved over 75 family cases and maintains an 80% client referral rate.

Jessica Abdollahi brings over 14 years of legal experience to the practice, having been admitted to the Florida Bar in 2011 and the California Bar in 2015. She graduated from St. Thomas University School of Law in Miami in 2011 after attending Florida Atlantic University for her undergraduate education. She previously worked as an associate attorney at Bez Law Firm before establishing her own practice, initially operating as JAA Law Group before founding AF Family Law.

The firm handles divorce and legal separation cases, covering both contested and uncontested proceedings. California requires at least one spouse to have lived in the state for six months before filing. When spouses refuse to respond to divorce paperwork, uncontested divorce may still proceed after a certain waiting period passes. The practice works on complex divorce cases involving intricate financial situations and custody challenges.

Child custody and support services address parenting arrangements and financial obligations for children. The firm navigates California's custody laws to establish arrangements serving children's interests while respecting parents' rights. Support calculations follow state guidelines based on income, time-sharing arrangements, and other relevant factors.

Spousal support representation covers both sides – those seeking alimony and those defending against support claims. The practice evaluates factors like marriage length, standard of living during marriage, earning capacity, and financial needs when addressing spousal support issues.

Property division work includes separating marital assets and debts. Generally, property owned before marriage remains separate, while assets acquired during marriage up to separation are subject to division. The firm handles complex property matters involving businesses, inheritances, equipment, buildings, and retirement account division. They address the unique considerations of dividing retirement benefits accumulated during marriage.

Domestic violence restraining order assistance covers both obtaining protection orders and defending against abuse allegations. The practice works within the Domestic Violence Protection Act framework, whether clients seek protections or need to protect their rights when facing allegations.

The firm serves LGBTQ clients navigating divorce and custody matters, bringing understanding of the evolving legal landscape affecting same-sex couples. They emphasize treating each case individually rather than using standardized approaches, getting to know clients before determining strategy.

Abdollahi has been selected to Super Lawyers as a top-rated family law attorney in Sacramento. She also holds admissions to multiple Florida federal courts including U.S. District Courts for the Middle, Northern, and Southern Districts of Florida, plus Florida bankruptcy courts. The practice operates from offices at 9343 Tech Center Drive, Suite 165 in Sacramento, maintaining hours Monday through Thursday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Friday from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, and closing weekends.
