About Theresita
Biography
Divorce attorney Theresita Perez chooses to practice family law because it gives her the unique opportunity to help children and families with their legal needs.
Divorce and other family law issues can be incredibly complex and challenging to understand. Ms. Perez understands that and carefully listens to her clients to make sure she understands their concerns.
Throughout the entire process, she ensures that they have a partner in their corner they can count on to do whatever is possible to protect their rights.
“We will work through this together,” Ms. Perez said. “I will keep you informed and provide all your options so you can make an informed decision on what direction your case takes. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me.”
