Sergio Cabanas was born in Puerto Rico to a Cuban family forged in resilience and hope. When the Castro regime seized their family farm, his parents fled Cuba determined to start over. In their new life, his father taught him the value of hard work and the power of education—lessons Sergio carried with him always.
While his siblings chose medicine, Sergio felt a powerful pull toward justice, becoming the first lawyer in his family. But his journey was deeply personal. As a child, he lived through a painful divorce that tore him away from the father he loved. The experience left a lasting wound and sparked a lifelong promise:
“If I ever become a lawyer, I won’t let what happened to my family happen to anyone else.”
That vow is the foundation of Divorce Lawyers | Cabanas Law Firm. Sergio didn’t just choose a career in family law—he embraced a purpose. His mission is to help clients navigate divorce with compassion, clarity, and unwavering advocacy, ensuring that he does everything in his power so that families are protected from the same pain he once knew too well.
Today, Sergio leads his team with that same promise in mind: to stand beside every client, protect what matters most, and turn even the hardest moments into new beginnings.
If you're looking for a divorce lawyer who truly understands the stakes, Cabanas Law Firm is here to help you protect your family and your future.
