Ms. Farber received her undergraduate degree in psychology from Loyola University law school, Ms. Farber interned with the Honorable Renee Goldenberg, Broward County Circuit Court family judge. She also contributed over 200 pro bono hours representing underprivileged individuals as a Certified Legal Intern at Children and Families Clinic. After Helena graduated law school, she worked as an associate attorney for a Ft. Lauderdale, civil litigation law firm. At this firm Ms. Farber represented corporations like Citizens Insurance, Volkswagen, and Mercedes and acquired valuable courtroom experience. Ms. Farber had an opportunity to fully immerse myself into the family law when she worked for an excellent Broward family law firm, which has been in business for over 30 years.

Ms. Farber's background in psychology and a modern approach to the practice of law gives her a unique edge to help her clients come up with innovative, outside of the box solutions, while also being cost effective. Helena does not just look at each case from a legal perspective, but instead she uses a global approach, taking into account economical, psychological, and moral aspects. Ms. Farber's clients call her their confidant, and they always know that she has their best interests in mind.
