Practice Areas

This issue is pervasive in family law. I regularly help parents want to modify a current custody agreement due to a change in circumstances, as well as those who are ending their relationship and need to determine how best to co-parent.

Divorce and Separation 20%

No matter how common this has become, every client has an experience that carries its own history, emotion, and sense of loss attached to it. No divorce is easy, but knowing what to expect and how to get through it can certainly minimize the stress.

Litigation 20%

I have extensive litigation experience, with both bench trials and jury trials. I spent much of the early part of my career in the courtroom everyday. I love every aspect of trial preparation, strategy, and presentation.

Child Support 15%

All children who do not live with both of their parents are entitled to support. While support can be easily calculated, factors used to determine income attributable to a parent can be more complicated than what's reflected on a pay-stub.

Domestic Violence 10%

I have experience assisting victims of violence with receiving protection from the courts and law enforcement, as well as defending those who are wrongfully accused by someone looking to gain leverage in their divorce or custody action.

Alimony 5%

Any time one spouse has been financially dependent on the other during the course of the marriage, there is the possibility they may be entitled to support after the marriage.

Marriage and Prenuptials 5%

While no one gets married thinking their marriage won't last, there's certainly nothing wrong with expecting the best, and being prepared for the worst. Prenuptial agreements and other marital agreements can alleviate unexpected circumstances.

Mediation 4%

Mediation is a way that parties are empowered to work through their own issues related to custody and property division in order to find solutions that are most appropriate for them and their children.

Adoption 1%

One of the most rewarding types of cases in a family law practice is legitimizing a family and sharing in the joy of a child finding a forever home.

DO NOT HIRE THIS ATTORNEY!

I retained this attorney and she was incompetent. She clearly does not understand law and should not be an attorney. I had to hire another attorney to handle my case and he said she is not respected in the law community or courts. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. She is all about the money and... only wants to answer your emails or calls on the weekend when she can charge more. Her ethics are poor. She suggested some things that should not have come from an attorneys mouth.
