I joined Weibrecht & Reis after spending close to eight years working at a larger firm where I focused on family law but also handled real estate matters, probate litigation, guardianships, and commercial transactions.  Spending time working in other practice areas has made me into a well rounded family law practitioner and mediator, as family law often intersects with bankruptcy, business law, estate planning, and other areas of the law.  I am a Certified Marital Mediator and trained collaborative law practitioner and am licensed to practice law in New Hampshire, Maine and Massachusetts.  My experience also includes complicated divorce and parenting cases involving multiple day trials and family business division.  While I believe settlement through mediation or collaborative law is always preferable, I understand that there are times when, for one reason or another, it is not an option.  In those cases I am ready, willing, and able to aggressively litigate.  I have lived in and worked in the seacoast area since I graduated law school and I enjoy giving back.  I have served as President of the Rockingham County Bar Association and continue as a board member, I am a member of the New Hampshire Collaborative Law Alliance, and I also volunteer with the Seacoast Kiwanis Club, a volunteer organization dedicated to improving the lives of children.

Many of her cases also include contested issues involving children in divorce and paternity cases, such as residential placement, parenting schedules, co-parenting and child support.. In her practice, Faye works closely with other professionals in areas such as real estate, parenting abilities, retirement benefits, financial planning, tax implications and business valuations, to assure that each client is provided comprehensive representation tailored to his or her unique case.
