Biography
Picking your advocate is the most important decisions you can make in moving your case forward. You need an advocate who can understand the issues most important to you and who can fight to help you meet your end goal. You need someone who knows how to fight, but just as importantly someone who knows strategically when not to fight. Picking and choosing your battles is key in any family law litigation. I am a Certified Family Law Specialist, sworn to practice in all courts in California and the United States Supreme Court who is compassionate, knowledgeable (of appeals, litigation and alternatives to litigation), strategic, efficient, effective, and excited about getting you results. I would love to discuss your matter with you, possible strategies for resolution (as litigation may not be appropriate in every matter) and whether we could compatibly work together. Give me a call.

One of the Best Advocates Around!
I had a complicated case with a lot of assets. We had a business to divide and could not make heads or tails of it. My previous attorney messed up the case. However, when we found Thomas Law, the attorney was able to get to the bottom of how our assets should be divided. When Ms. Thomas presented ...
