As an attorney that focuses solely on family law, I am committed to helping my clients move forward with the changing needs of their families. Since I am a life-long military dependent, I am very familiar with the military lifestyle be it adjusting to frequent moves and changes of duty assignments, military benefits, retirement issues and the like. I relate to my military clients in a way that breeds confidence that I understand and appreciate their unique needs.
For my business owning clients, I recognize their driven personalities and creativity and can match their energy to help achieve their goals in the most efficient way forward.
I provide unique value to my clients in that I am relatable, have a diverse background, and spot issues quickly. Specializing in family law has provided the opportunity to focus my business and practice area. I have developed and taught continuing education courses to other attorneys, mentored younger attorneys, taught at the university level, and have participated on panel discussions as well as guest speaker.
I chose family law as a natural progression of my diverse life experiences. Upon the return to the Hampton Roads area after my spouse retired from the military, I was drawn to use my experiences to aid other families whose lives were changing. As a native of Hampton Roads, a business owner, military dependent, and mother, I am a driven, results oriented, highly ethical, and down to earth attorney wanting to make a difference.
