We have not found any cost information for this lawyer
I’ve focused my practice on divorce and family law since 2012, building on earlier experience in civil litigation and service as a prosecutor. My commitment to family law is deeply personal, and I’m driven by the opportunity to empower clients during some of the most challenging moments of their lives. As a court‑certified mediator in multiple judicial circuits, I help clients consider long‑term outcomes and approach their situations from every angle. I prepare for trial from day one, but I always prioritize resolving matters through thoughtful, mutually beneficial agreements whenever possible. Above all, I want every client to feel heard, supported, and understood. I’m genuinely grateful for the work I do and the impact I can make in family law.

Angela cares about her clients!
I had the opportunity to meet with Angela in her office. In speaking with her, it became very evident that she truly cares about her clients, including the emotional, sad aspects of a divorce. Sadly, it seems that many divorce attorneys like ‘to stir the pot’ emotionally with couples to drum up ad...

Honest, up-front, professional, and a fighter.
My husband hired Angela after she was recommended by a friend/another attorney, when wanting to fight for "full custody" (primary time and responsibilities) of his young son. It was not an easy battle, Angela was honest from the start that we did not have a slam dunk case, which was refreshing. After...
