Tough as nails legal advocate with a heart of gold.
I use my complex litigation experience to help families dissolve their intimate relationships safely, fairly, and efficiently. I also help victims of crime seek the justice they deserve. I am skilled in negotiation, pre-trial discovery, motion practice, trials, and appeals.
