Michael T. Bonetto is a partner at Moradi Neufer LLP in San Francisco, California, and devotes his practice exclusively to family law, representing clients in the Bay Area in matters involving divorce, custody, support and domestic violence. His work often involves complex financial issues such as business valuations, property characterization and separate property tracing. He also assists clients with the negotiation and drafting of premarital and post-marital agreements. Known for combining careful strategy with empathy and precision, he provides clients with strong advocacy and practical guidance during highly challenging times.
Mr. Bonetto earned his Juris Doctor from Santa Clara University School of Law, where he focused his studies on family law and trial practice. Before law school, he attended the University of California, Berkeley, earning a Bachelor of Arts in legal studies. His education gave him a strong foundation in both the theoretical and practical aspects of the law, which he continues to apply to complex family law disputes.
Mr. Bonetto is a Certified Family Law Specialist through The State Bar of California, a distinction granted to a small percentage of attorneys who demonstrate advanced knowledge, skill and experience in the field. He is also a Fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers, a national organization that recognizes the country’s leading practitioners in family law. He is admitted to practice in all California state courts and the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.
In addition to his practice, Mr. Bonetto is an active member of the legal community. He frequently collaborates with colleagues on developments in family law and contributes to the broader conversation about best practices in complex cases.
Today, Mr. Bonetto is regarded as a trusted advocate and adviser. His client-centered approach, attention to detail, and ability to resolve disputes both in and out of the courtroom have established him as a respected leader in family law.
