I am an award-winning family law attorney and founder of Best Interest Law, practicing in the Metropolitan Detroit Area (Macomb, Oakland, Wayne). My expertise is in research and analysis of all areas of family law (complex to simple divorce, custody, parenting time, child support, asset & debt division, spousal support, paternity, post-judgment, domestic relations appeals, & PPO cases). I have experience in the private and non-profit sectors, have had much success for my clients at the trial court level, have succeeded in the Court of Appeals, have drafted multiple successful appellate briefs, and have drafted judicial opinions for the Wayne Count Circuit Court Family Division.
I believe uncertainty is often the root of discontent for clients. That is why I have spent my career organizing complicated family law issues in a comprehensible manner.
