Family Law Courts Served
Contra Costa County hears its family law cases in Martinez, the county seat, rather than in Walnut Creek. Walnut Creek family matters go to the Superior Court of California, County of Contra Costa.
Peter L. Spinetta Family Law Center
751 Pine Street, Martinez, CA 94553. Five of the county’s seven family courtrooms are in this building and the other two are at the Wakefield Taylor Courthouse, 725 Court Street, and the court assigns each case when it is filed. Your notice of hearing shows the courtroom.
A custody or visitation dispute generally goes to mediation before the judge decides it, under Family Code section 3170. Contra Costa County runs that step as Child Custody Recommending Counseling, so when parents cannot agree, the counselor’s recommendation can reach the judge. A clear, practical schedule gives the counselor and the judge something concrete to weigh.
Long marriages bring a specific spousal support rule. Family Code section 4336 treats a marriage that lasted ten years or longer as one of long duration, which usually means the court retains authority over spousal support without an end date unless the spouses agree otherwise in writing or a court order ends it. Child support cases sometimes start with the Contra Costa County Department of Child Support Services instead of a parent, and that agency represents neither side.
