Prior to becoming an attorney I worked for over 15 years as a Mental Health Therapist counseling youths and their families. I have an affinity for children and believe they have a voice that deserves to be heard. Navigating the legal system can be extremely difficult for adults and often anxiety provoking and confusing for children and adolescents. They are are asked to make decisions that will affect their life that require guidance.
Though I am a strong proponent of the institution of marriage I understand that sometimes divorce is the best solution. As divorce is often not amicable having someone to advocate on your behalf is often necessary and well-advised.

"As a former Public Defender, it's unsurprising that Tiffany is well-versed in criminal law. She is knowledgeable and highly-effective at trying custody and visitation cases as well and I recommend her as an attorney."
"I endorse this lawyer. Tiffany is a friendly and diligent attorney. She is very knowledgeable about her areas of practice and always has her client's best interests at heart."
"I worked with Tiffany at the Hampton Public Defender's Office and she was one of the attorneys I supervised on the juvenile team. Tiffany is one of the hardest working attorneys I know, and I really respect her as an attorney. She is very smart and always does a great job in representing her clients. I have no problems endorsing her as a competent and zealous attorney in her areas of practice."
"I endorse this lawyer. Ms. Sullivan is a straight to the point no nonsense legal advocate who has the experience her clients have come to depend on in furthering their cause."
"Ms. Sullivan is a dedicated advocate for children and families. When she worked in the Public Defenders Office, I was a law school intern and watched her in court numerous times. She was always prepared and presented well-reasoned arguments to protect her clients' rights and interests. Now an attorney in private practice, Ms. Sullivan continues to be a strong advocate for her clients. She is a well-respected colleague, and I endorse her without reservation."
"Tiffany is a very compassionate and knowledgeable attorney with a knack and respected reputation for civil and criminal cases involving juveniles. She has insight that most attorneys do not have due to her prior social work experience. If you hire her, you will be in good hands."
"I endorse this lawyer because she is a hard-working compassionate attorney who is able to evaluate a case and determine the best method of helping her client receive the best possible outcome."
"Tiffany is an extremely knowledgeable and professional attorney. She has a strong background in socialwork and psychology and she brings these skills to her practice. She is very intelligent, thoughtful, hardworking and compassionate. You can rely on her to fight for your rights. Her practice includes every type of family law, and she she has a strong emphasis in juvenile criminal defense. However, her work with adult criminal defense and traffic cases is outstanding. In every area of the law, she brings her strong ethics, solid experience, and good judgment to your aid."
