Antonyan Miranda's Newport Beach, Orange County Office

Antonyan Miranda's Newport Beach office is a full-service litigation hub positioned to serve clients across Orange County — from Irvine and Costa Mesa to Huntington Beach, Laguna Beach, and the surrounding coastal communities. Newport Beach is one of three offices in our regional triangle of power, alongside our San Diego headquarters and our Temecula (Riverside/Inland Empire) location, giving us dominant coverage across Southern California's highest-stakes legal corridors.

Why Newport Beach Matters for Your Case

Orange County family law and personal injury cases are heard in the Orange County Superior Court system. Family law matters — including divorce, child custody, spousal support, and domestic violence — are primarily filed at the Lamoreaux Justice Center in Orange, while the Harbor Justice Center on Jamboree Road in Newport Beach also handles family law proceedings for local residents. Personal injury cases are managed through the Civil Complex Center in Santa Ana. Our Newport Beach attorneys appear in these courtrooms regularly, and that familiarity with local judges, local procedures, and the pace of Orange County litigation translates into a strategic advantage that out-of-area firms simply cannot replicate.

Newport Beach is an affluent community with a median household income exceeding $156,000 and a population of approximately 84,000 residents. The financial complexity of this community — investment portfolios, business ownership, real estate holdings across Newport Coast and Corona del Mar, deferred compensation packages — demands a law firm with the forensic accounting resources and Certified Specialist credentials to handle high-value matters. That firm is Antonyan Miranda.


Newport Beach Divorce Lawyer and Family Law Services

Antonyan Miranda is the divorce attorney Newport Beach residents turn to when the stakes are too high for a generalist. Our Orange County family law team is led by Certified Family Law Specialists — including founding partner Ilona Antonyan, the youngest person in California to earn the CFLS designation — and backed by an in-house forensic accountancy department that traces hidden assets, values complex businesses, and ensures that nothing slips through the cracks during property division.

We handle every dimension of family law litigation for Orange County clients, and each area of practice is supported by the full depth of our 40-attorney team.

High-Net-Worth and Contested Divorce Litigation

Contested divorce litigation in Newport Beach almost always involves significant assets — from real estate in Newport Coast and Balboa Island to stock options, business interests, and offshore accounts. Our approach to property division litigation is built on forensic precision: our in-house accountants identify, value, and trace every marital asset so that our attorneys can fight for a division that protects your financial future. We also represent clients in collaborative divorce when the circumstances call for negotiation rather than litigation, and we handle uncontested divorce legal services for couples who have reached agreement and need experienced counsel to finalize terms correctly.

Use our Moore Marsden Property Division Calculator to understand how separate and community property interests are calculated in California — a critical tool when real estate purchased before marriage has appreciated during the marriage.

Child Custody, Visitation, and Parenting Time

Child custody and visitation rights litigation is where the "emotional blinders" hit hardest. Parents making decisions about their children's future while simultaneously managing the stress of divorce need attorneys who combine strategic clarity with genuine compassion. Our Orange County custody attorneys handle parent timesharing litigation, move-away cases, and modifications of court orders with a focus on achieving outcomes that protect both the parent-child relationship and the client's long-term parental rights.

We also handle father's rights litigation — ensuring that fathers in Orange County receive equal consideration in custody proceedings — and paternity establishment litigation for unmarried parents who need to formalize legal parenthood before custody and support orders can be entered.

Spousal Support, Child Support, and Financial Orders

Spousal support and alimony litigation in Orange County frequently involves high-income earners with complex compensation structures — bonuses, stock awards, business distributions, and deferred compensation that complicate accurate income calculations. Our attorneys work alongside our forensic accountants to present accurate income figures to the court and to argue for support orders that reflect the true financial picture, not just what appears on a W-2.

Child support litigation follows California's guideline formula, but the inputs matter enormously. Misrepresented income, unreported cash flow, and improper deductions can produce support orders that are thousands of dollars off per month. We ensure the numbers are right. Use our Spousal and Child Support Calculator to estimate potential support obligations based on California guidelines.

We also handle modification of court orders when material changes in circumstances — job loss, income increase, relocation, or changes in parenting time — require an update to existing support or custody arrangements.

Prenuptial Agreements, Restraining Orders, and Guardianship

Our Newport Beach family law practice extends beyond divorce litigation. We draft and negotiate prenups and marital agreements that protect assets acquired before and during marriage — a critical need in a community where business ownership and inherited wealth are common. We also handle restraining order litigation for clients facing domestic violence or threats, and guardianship litigation for families navigating the legal process of establishing guardianship over a minor or incapacitated adult.


Newport Beach Personal Injury Attorney

Antonyan Miranda's personal injury attorneys represent injured clients across Orange County on a contingency-fee basis — meaning we assume the financial risk of your case and you pay nothing unless we win. Our team handles the full spectrum of personal injury litigation, from auto accidents on the 73 Toll Road and Pacific Coast Highway to catastrophic injuries caused by negligent property owners, defective products, and reckless drivers throughout Newport Beach and Orange County.

Auto, Motorcycle, Truck, and Bicycle Accident Litigation

Auto accident litigation is the most common personal injury case type in Orange County, and Newport Beach's coastal highways and high-traffic corridors — including Pacific Coast Highway, Jamboree Road, and the 73 and 55 freeways — produce collisions that range from fender benders to catastrophic multi-vehicle crashes. Our attorneys handle every accident type:

  • Auto accident litigation for car collisions caused by distracted, impaired, or negligent drivers
  • Motorcycle accident litigation for riders injured by motorists who fail to share the road
  • Truck accident litigation for victims of commercial vehicle crashes, including FMCSA regulatory violations
  • Bicycle accident litigation for cyclists struck in bike lanes, intersections, and shared roadways throughout Newport Beach and coastal Orange County

We also handle motorist insurance claims litigation — including uninsured and underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) claims — when your own insurance company acts like your adversary instead of honoring the policy you have been paying for.

Catastrophic Injury, Slip and Fall, and Premises Liability

Catastrophic injury litigation involves life-altering harm — traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, amputations, severe burns — that demands maximum recovery to cover lifetime medical costs, lost earning capacity, and diminished quality of life. Our attorneys build these cases with expert medical testimony, economic loss projections, and aggressive negotiation that forces insurance carriers to take the claim seriously.

Slip and fall injury litigation in Newport Beach can arise at retail locations around Fashion Island, restaurants on Balboa Peninsula, commercial properties on Newport Center Drive, or any premises where a property owner's negligence creates a hazardous condition. California premises liability law requires property owners and occupiers to maintain reasonably safe conditions, and when they fail, our attorneys hold them accountable.

Additional Personal Injury Practice Areas

Our Newport Beach personal injury attorneys also handle:

  • Pain and suffering litigation — pursuing compensation beyond medical bills and lost wages to account for the physical and emotional toll of serious injury
  • Product liability litigation — holding manufacturers and distributors accountable for defective products that cause harm
  • Assault and battery injury litigation — securing civil recovery for victims of intentional violence, independent of any criminal prosecution
  • Wrongful death litigation — representing families who have lost a loved one due to another party's negligence, recklessness, or intentional conduct
  • Workers' compensation litigation — fighting for injured workers who are being denied the benefits they deserve
  • Medical malpractice litigation — pursuing accountability when healthcare providers fail to meet the standard of care

Every personal injury case we accept is taken on contingency. We invest our resources — our time, our team, our expertise — because we believe in the case. If we do not recover compensation for you, you owe us nothing.


Why Orange County Clients Choose Antonyan Miranda

Choosing a law firm in Orange County is not a decision you make based on who has the biggest billboard or the lowest retainer. It is a decision you make based on who has the firepower to win your case — and the track record to prove it.

The 40-Attorney Advantage

Antonyan Miranda is a team 40 attorneys deep — with Certified Family Law Specialists, Certified Appellate Law Specialists, dedicated discovery attorneys, and an in-house forensic accountancy department. When we walk into a courtroom in Orange County, the opposing counsel knows they are not facing a solo practitioner or a small boutique. They are facing a litigation machine with the bench strength to out-prepare, out-resource, and out-litigate the competition at every stage of the case.

In-House Forensic Accounting

Most law firms outsource forensic accounting to third-party CPAs who juggle multiple clients and charge separately for their time. Antonyan Miranda keeps this critical capability in-house. Our forensic accountants work side by side with our attorneys from day one — tracing hidden assets in divorce, calculating accurate income for support proceedings, and quantifying economic losses in personal injury and wrongful death cases. This integration eliminates communication gaps, accelerates case preparation, and gives our clients a level of financial analysis that boutique firms simply cannot match.

The Founders' One-Two Punch

Ilona Antonyan became the youngest person in California to earn the Certified Family Law Specialist designation — a credential held by a small fraction of California attorneys. Timothy Miranda brings a corporate executive background that gives the firm a unique, "in the trenches" perspective on business valuation, executive compensation, and the financial complexity that defines high-net-worth divorce and serious personal injury cases. Together, they built Antonyan Miranda to be the legal heavyweight that smaller firms aspire to compete with — and consistently cannot.

Trial-Ready at All Times

Many firms settle cases because they cannot afford the cost of trial preparation. Antonyan Miranda settles only when settlement serves the client's best interest — and we are fully prepared to take any case to trial when it does not. Our dedicated Appeals Department means that even after trial, we have the resources to protect your outcome at the appellate level. This trial-ready posture is not a marketing claim. It is a litigation strategy that insurance companies and opposing counsel factor into every negotiation.


Put Antonyan Miranda in Your Corner

You found this page because something in your life has gone wrong — a marriage is ending, an accident has left you injured, or someone else's negligence is threatening your family's future. That vulnerable moment is exactly when the quality of your legal representation matters most. The cost of hiring the wrong firm — the "River of Death" of underprepared litigation, the lowball settlement from an insurance company that counts on you giving up — is a price you cannot afford to pay.

Antonyan Miranda is the legal heavyweight that stands between you and total loss. Our Newport Beach office puts 40 attorneys, in-house forensic accounting, Certified Specialists, and a trial-ready team in your corner — whether your case involves a high-net-worth divorce in Orange County or a catastrophic injury claim against a major insurance carrier.
