I am a Partner at Miller Zeiderman & Wiederkehr, LLP, where I concentrate my practice in matrimonial and family law matters, including divorce, child custody, child support, spousal maintenance, equitable distribution, post-judgment litigation, and complex financial disputes.
I graduated cum laude from Pace University School of Law in 2016 and earned my undergraduate degree, also cum laude, from John Jay College of Criminal Justice. I am a Certified Financial Litigator through the American Academy for Certified Financial Litigators, providing me with advanced training in the financial issues that frequently arise in divorce and family law litigation. In 2019, I completed the Family Law Trial Advocacy Program through the National Institute for Trial Advocacy in conjunction with the American Bar Association to further develop and refine my courtroom advocacy skills.
Before entering the legal profession, I proudly served eight years in the United States Marine Corps, attaining the rank of Sergeant and receiving multiple commendations and distinguished awards. The discipline, leadership, determination, and commitment to excellence that defined my military service continue to guide my approach to the practice of law today.
Family law matters are often among the most difficult and emotionally charged challenges a person will face. I understand that clients need more than legal advice—they need a strong advocate who will protect their interests, provide candid guidance, and pursue the best possible outcome. Whether negotiating a favorable settlement or litigating in the courtroom, I am committed to advancing my clients' objectives with skill, preparation, and relentless advocacy.
I have built my reputation on being a strategic and tenacious litigator who does not back down from difficult cases. My clients know that I will fight tirelessly to protect what matters most to them—their children, their financial future, and their peace of mind.
When you retain me, you gain an attorney who is accessible, responsive, and fully invested in your case from start to finish. My goal is simple: to provide exceptional representation and achieve meaningful results for every client I serve.

"Ms. Kersting is a disciplined and dedicated advocate who genuinely cares about her clients. Perhaps most importantly for a divorce attorney, Ms. Kersting knows how to "follow the money," often uncovering evidence of spousal assets that aren't immediately apparent at first glance. For these reasons, Ms. Kersting has my strong and unwavering endorsement."
