Recent Case Examples:
In 2005, while out of town for the weekend, Mr. Fuhrman was reached by telephone by a mother of two young children frantic with concern for their welfare. She had just learned that her husband of 10+ years had sexually abused her daughter and her son had seen him try to do so again. Mr. Fuhrman successfully terminated the father's paternal rights and negotiated a transfer to the children, principally the daughter, nearly 100% of the father's interest in all of the community property, including his 401(k).
In 2008, Mr. Fuhrman persuaded the court to place custody with his client of his young daughter and son after demonstrating that their mother's interest in reliving her youth with a new boyfriend compromised her judgment as a parent.
In 2002, Mr. Fuhrman overcame the challenge by his client's former attorney spouse to her move out of state with her three daughters and husband of three years, whose business opportunities were greater in Oregon.
In 2008, Mr. Fuhrman enforced his client's prenuptial agreement and secured full custody for his adopted daughter in a case that required Mandarin translation in pre-trial and trial proceedings.
In 2006, the autopsy of a 3-month old revealed a 3" fracture of the skull and the pathologist opined that the blow to the skull was struck within 15 minutes of death. Father was charged with causing his daughter's death during mother's absence from home because the mother had left for work almost one hour earlier. Mr. Fuhrman was convinced his client did not kill his daughter, particularly because of the contrast between father's demeanor and mother's demeanor on many hours of videotaped police interviews, as well as some of mother's past actions. After consulting three pathologists who could not refute the prosecution's pathology evidence that only father was with his daughter during the "window of time" that death was caused, Mr. Fuhrman engaged a widely respected Univ. of Southern California neuropatholgist. That expert re-examined the evidence and showed that the blow to the skull could have been struck hours before death . . . consistent with mother having struck the blow. As a result, father was released from jail and the charge against him dismissed.
