also known as Lillie Martin Seifart
I am a licensed North Carolina family law attorney practicing with Soni Brendle, PLLC. I handle issues related to divorce and separation such as child custody, child support, absolute divorce, spousal support, equitable distribution, family law litigation, separation agreements and domestic violence. I also handle the drafting of premarital agreements and some adoptions. I practice primarily in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina but have experience litigating in other North Carolina counties, particularly Wake County. I value and respect my clients and I aim to provide the highest level of professional service to each and every client. I take a straightforward approach to handling family law issues. I do my best to ensure each client understands their rights and obligations under the laws of North Carolina and that they informed and prepared for each step of the family law process. I enjoy working with people and helping them navigate the difficult and emotional path through the divorce process.
I am originally from Charlotte, North Carolina where I attended Myers Park High School. After I graduated, I accepted a Division 1 swimming scholarship to Davidson College where I studied English Literature. I graduated from Davidson in 2013 and began my legal studies at Campbell Law School in Raleigh, North Carolina. While at Campbell, I discovered my passion for family law and helping people. I interned in both the District and Supreme Courts as well as in private practice with family law firms. I was also a member of the Campbell Law Review and served as the Symposium editor my 3L year.
I have more than seven (7) years of exclusive family law experience. I have been recognized by North Carolina Legal Elite and Superlawyers for my legal practice.
Outside of work, I am mommy to my young daughter and I enjoy spending time with her, my husband, and our pet cat, Fifi. I also enjoy working out and exploring new places in North Carolina and beyond.

Lillie was wonderful to work with during my custody case. We were able to reach an agreement without a trial, which I thought was impossible.

Lillie has represented me like no other attorney ever has in my total of ten years of dealing with two different custody battles.

Amazing at being prepared and preparing me
I can't say enough about how great of a job Lillie did with my case. From the very beginning when she asked what I was looking for in my custody case and why I thought that would be best, she stayed focused on my goal. Going to court for something as important as what I feel is best for my child wa...
