Divorce and custody disputes are never easy. My mission is to educate my clients about the law and the process so they can make informed decisions during what is likely one of the most difficult and emotional experiences of their life. I represent clients in matters related to divorce, child custody, child support, alimony, the division of assets, domestic violence, post-judgment applications and all related issues. I also handle military divorce, custody and child support matters. I also act as a mediator. I advocate for my clients with compassion, dedication and experience. I invite you to schedule a free consultation, either in person or over the phone, to discuss your specific family law needs.

Excellent Lawyer
It was a very difficult and a very long process for my divorce case. However, Patricia was always very patient, understanding and thoughtful during the entire process. Aside from the knowledge and skills as a lawyer you can rely on, her friendship and support had also helped me tremendously during ...
"Patrica is tremendous attorney. I first met Patricia as opposing counsel on a case and have since used her repeatedly as a mediator. She has an excellent understanding of the law and is a zealous advocate for her clients. Patricia looks at cases from a problem solving perspective and is known for her creative solutions to even the most contested matrimonial and family law cases. I strongly recommend Patricia as a family law attorney and mediator."
"I endorse this lawyer strongly. Trish is diligent, honest, makes every reasonable effort to resolve a case without giving up her client's position. Her intelligence and reasonableness made a difficult case resolve easier and quicker than it otherwise might have. She is truly a professional, knowledgeable about the law, practical and yet fights for her client's position. Ultimately both parties were happy because what could have been a big fight was not, which saved them both thousands on counsel fees. Amy Kriegsman"
