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.
