Why I practice family law: Family law is unlike other areas of law because the relationship between the parties often causes emotions to run high. No case is exactly the same in family law because we are dealing with real people and families. Parties need an attorney to assist them in navigating the law. I firmly believe in assisting my clients to achieve the best result possible given their individual circumstances so that they can move on beyond their divorce, child support issue and/or custody dispute. I work with my clients to learn about their goals and discuss what is best for their family now and into the future.

Excellent Lawyer
Karissa did a very good job of handling my divorce, given the level and layers of complexity that existed throughout the case. She also returned every email and call and made me feel like I was an individual and not just a case number. I also want to give her a thumbs up for schooling me on the ins...
