“The first ten years of my life were shaped by being raised in a divorced household by my single mother. Subsequently, her remarriage introduced me to the intricacies of a blended family dynamic, which I now hold dear. Through firsthand experience, I witnessed the emotional toll exacted by family law issues, instilling in me a deep sense of empathy for my clients. I understand that legal victories must be accompanied by realistic expectations and a sincere acknowledgment of the emotional complexities involved. My advocacy for clients extends beyond legal strategy; I strive to offer genuine empathy while helping them refocus on the core issues of their cases. This multifaceted approach ensures that each client receives the holistic support they need, both inside and outside the courtroom.”
