EXPERIENCED DIVORCE & CHILD CUSTODY ATTORNEY - Mention AVVO and recieve a free consultation.
I GET IT. I am divorced. I have walked in your shoes and I understand how confusing, overwhelming and frustrating divorce can be!
The divorce rocked my world. I had no idea what my rights were or what to do next. In the end, I successfully and swiftly negotiated my own divorce. I went on to attend law school while raising two kids as a single mom. Now, I work one-on-one with clients like you who are thoughtful, reasonable and want the best for your children.
LET'S MAKE THIS YOUR PAST, SO YOU CAN BUILD A NEW FUTURE!
I offer the following services;
- Divorce strategy sessions & divorce representation
- Custody and child support cases
- A la carte legal representation, also known as limited scope or unbundled legal services
I take a holistic approach to lawyering, which means I take into consideration all aspects of your life. You are not just a form or set of numbers to me. Your well-being, life goals, and ultimate happiness are something we discuss when creating a plan for you, making settlement offers or discussing options in your case.
