About Silky
Biography
I take a holistic approach to the practice of law. For me, the holistic practice of law upholds that all aspects of people's needs - physical, social, and mental - should be taken into account and seen as a whole. Using a holistic approach, all potential contributing factors that may affect a person's case are taken into consideration when assessing a person's overall legal situation.
