About Mary Ann
Biography
You will get through this. Divorce doesn't end families, it rearranges them. I understand, from personal experience, how difficult it is to face the divorce process, especially when there is a young child involved and you now have to co-parent with someone you may not trust. I have been practicing law for over 25 years, and dedicate myself to family law cases. As a Board Certified Specialist in Family Law (New Mexico) and a Fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyer, I believe you need a lawyer with true expertise in divorce and custody situations. At my firm, you legal team is with you every step of the way.
