also known as Certified Family Law Specialist
I am a life crisis specialist. I help clients in times of personal legal crisis, such as when they cannot pay their bills or their relationships fall apart. I have over 25 years of experience helping clients in bankruptcy and family law cases, making thousands of court appearances and helping thousands of clients. I would like to help you!
I file bankruptcies for people and small businesses so they can be relieved of mountains of debt, stop wage garnishments, avoid taxes, and keep their homes, cars and businesses.
I represent people in family law cases including divorce, custody and support cases. I am a Certified Family Law Specialist, certified by the State Bar of California. I love being in court, but understand that most of my clients do not. Therefore, I work to help reach reasonable solutions, which sometimes involve court and othertimes involve mediation and always involve negotiations.
I am licensed in both California and Texas. I give a free, 30 minute consultation, so let's talk!
