About Constance
Biography
In every case, whether agreed or extremely adversarial, I do my best to see that my client and their family remains as emotionally, psychologically, and financially intact as possible.
I find mediating to be especially rewarding, because I am able to assist parties in resolving their issues without the added expense of court.
In my free time, I'm an avid baker, care-taker for abused and abandonded dogs, and, despite a black-thumb, I hope to start growing herbs. I enjoy spending weekends hosting game nights or hiking with my partner and our dog.

Constance Is Wonderful
Constance was amazing in helping me deal with a family law matter involving my ex-wife. She understood my needs, was aggressive in advocating for me, but also professional and courteous. Should I need assistance again, she'll be my first call.

Excellent Outcome
Ms. Locklear represented me in a complicated Divorce/Custody case. She is professional, engaged, and motivated. She helped me tremendously. Constance and her paralegal Liza, helped me to obtain much more parenting time with my son than I dared even hope for. I strongly recommend them!!
