About

Brian D. Mullen is a dedicated lawyer in Irvine, California with a strong background in family law and civil matters. I am a graduate of the University of California, San Diego and California Western School of Law. After completing my legal education, I gained valuable experience working as a law clerk for a seasoned San Diego attorney specializing in family law. My work involved handling complex custody disputes, domestic violence cases, guardianships, and high-asset divorce cases. Upon passing the Bar Exam, I joined a prestigious law firm in San Diego where I managed a wide range of divorce cases from start to finish. I also represented clients in civil matters and successfully advocated for their rights in court. In 2009, I temporarily joined another well-known family law office, where I continued to handle challenging dissolution cases and contested child custody matters. One of my notable achievements was winning a difficult guardianship case for a paternal grandmother, securing permanent guardianship for her. I am committed to advocating for my clients' rights in California family law courts. I take the time to understand each client's objectives, prioritize their needs, and ensure prompt communication throughout the legal process. I have extensive experience appearing before the Family Law and Family Support Division courts in Orange County and have successfully represented Spanish-speaking clients in the area. In a recent case, I was able to significantly reduce support arrears for a client facing a substantial claim from their ex-spouse. Through diligent representation, I successfully lowered the arrears from $500,000 to $150,000, demonstrating my dedication to achieving favorable outcomes for my clients.
