“Family law problems are emotional, stressful and at times devastating to the people experiencing them. Helping people at one of the worst points of their lives is incredibly rewarding to me. Additionally, working with family law clients involves getting to know people from all kinds of backgrounds, I find that interesting. Every case is unique, and I try to understand each client’s situation, personality, problems and goals. I respect clients’ right to make their own decisions, both about their goals and about the process for achieving those goals. I understand when clients are emotional, and I provide frank and practical advice, rather than simply telling people what they want to hear, so that they are better able assess risk and make decisions about their case and their family life going forward.”
