I have an in-depth, working knowledge of all domestic relations matters including divorce, support (child, spousal, and special advisory), custody, property division, and domestic violence.

I appreciate and understand the immediate and substantial impact that family law matters have on individuals and families. Due to the nature of these matters, I give each case the amount of attention necessary. I know that the emotional and economic needs of my clients must be addressed, and that these matters are vital.
