About Michelle
Biography
I am a committed family law attorney dedicated to finding amicable resolutions for families when possible, and prepared for litigation when necessary. I listen like a friend, but think like a lawyer, and I pride myself on being responsive and available to my clients. To that end, I readily provide candid counsel to my clients about realistic expectations and potential outcomes for their cases with a heavy emphasis on strategy. The attorney-client relationship should be a collaboration, and I particularly focus my practice on empowerment, well-being, and strategic planning.
