Our firm motto is "Comfort and Clarity During Difficulty Times" as we believe our clients are in the midst of emotional burdens and should not have to worry about whether the attorney is handling their matters. I have been a practicing divorce attorney for over 35 years and have limited my practice soley to matters involving family law.
As a wife and mother of four children, I have experience as it relates to families and the dynamics therein.
We work with all types of families including same sex relationships and believe that families are best when the parents can work towards a mediated settlement of custodial issues.
As a trial attorney, I have represented both mothers and fathers regularly and I have experience working in the child support court and the domestic violence courtroom.

Didn't fire her, but only because I couldn't afford to hire anyone else
Kathleen started off the relationship by being kind and empathetic, and assured me she would fight for me and my children. In the end, I had to hash things out alone with my ex, because she basically gave up on getting him to agree to terms. I had to constantly call, text, and email to receive any ki...
