I endorse this lawyer. I have had cases with Andrea, and agree that she is a fantastic advocate. Yesterday, I had the pleasure of working with Andrea in her role as a mediator, and I must say that she is outstanding. She was able to help facilitate an agreement in a very heated and emotionally charged custody matter. I will definitely use Andrea again in the future as a family law mediator.

Andrea is a skilled family law attorney. Just as important though is that she takes a practical common sense approach to actually resolving the often contentious issues involved in a divorce in as expeditious method as possible. She is also a very competent mediator.
