“Other things may change us, but we start and end with the family.” - Anthony Brandt. Born in England, raised in North Carolina, and coming from a Persian background, I have always considered my ability to relate to people from all walks of life to be one of my greatest assets. I chose a career in family law because it allows me to work one-on-one with clients, helping them through some of life’s most difficult and stressful times.. Throughout my professional career, I have learned no two cases are the same but many client experiences can be traumatic and devastating. I take time to understand each client individually to find the best resolution for your situation. To me, it is important to find the positive light in the midst of confusion and uncertainty, whether it is bringing families together or helping them resolve issues to move on with their lives in order to have a new beginning. I want to help my clients become empowered to protect their rights during a challenging experience.. I am licensed to practice law in North Carolina and am an active member of the Union County Bar Association, Mecklenburg Bar Association, the Family Law and Young Lawyer’s Divisions of the North Carolina Bar Association, the Young Lawyer’s Division of the American Bar Association, and the North Carolina Association of Women Attorney’s.
