I grew up in Pensacola, Florida and graduated college from Florida State University. I worked as a paralegal in Florida, Georgia and Washington State prior to entering law school. One of the most fulfilling experiences I have had was attending Suffolk University Law School in Boston, Massachusettes. After graduation in 2004, I was admitted to the North Carolina State Bar and begain handling real estate transactions, creating wills and other documents for client's estate plans, and administering the estates of deceased loved ones. After handling my first custody case, I knew family law was the practice area in which I wanted to specialize. Family law matters touch upon many different areas of life and my personal and legal experience gives me an advantage. I have worked in small firms and large firms to include Stubbs Perdue and White & Allen but now enjoy the flexibility and satisfaction of operating Forrest Family Law. This career choice affords me the ability to focus on each client's individual needs. I dedicate my entire practice to helping clients find the right solutions to their family law matters. Myself and my staff understand that family law matters can be some of the most difficult legal issues to have to work through—especially without solid legal advice. This is why I offer individualized advice and effective service for clients who are going through a divorce, custody battle or facing other family law matters.. If you need assistance or just need some advice please call today to schedule a consultation.
