Child Support 20%

Since 1985, almost my entire practice has been devoted to Family Law, including divorce, dissolution, custody, child support, spousal support, post-decree modifications, paternity, grandparent's right's, pre-nuptial agreements and domestic violence . I am a trained mediator and have also been trained in collaborative divorce. I attempt to offer my clients as many options as possible to litigation to help them conserve their financial and emotional resources.

Posted by anonymous | July 10, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Family

Truly thank God for lawyers like her.

Hired for difficult divorce and custody issues. She explained what I needed to know, as hard as it was to hear, w/o sugar coating it. She explained family law points and the authority limits of GAL, FCS, CSB. If you want to be coddled through the process this is not the attorney for you. If you w...ant honest no nonsense answers, Yes.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
