I am originally from Buffalo, New York and while I love my hometown, if I never see another snowflake as long as live I will be completely content. I am the youngest of five children. With that kind of sibling rivalry, rest assured I have fought my entire life!. I am licensed in the state of Florida and New York. I have represented and defended cases involving the Department of Children and Families, the Department of Corrections, the State Attorney’s Office, insurance companies, hospitals, physicians, corporations and lawyers.. My true passion is getting my clients results, especially when it comes to ending the emotional stress that family law issues present. My degree in Psychology assists daily in creating a strategy, determining motives, negotiations, assessment of evidence, preparation of testimony and in the courtroom. Family Law disputes are exceedingly complex and the outcome can have a long standing effect on your finances, your children and your future. It’s important to me that you receive a successful out-come in every aspect of your life.

I am a family law attorney who has experience and handles cases relating to family law, including but not limited to divorce, selected post-judgment matters, and paternity cases. I am a proud member of The Florida Bar Family Law Section, the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts (Florida Chapter), the Association of Family Law Professionals, the Collaborative Professionals of Southwest Florida, and the Lee County Bar Association.. After practicing for over six (6) years in the Tampa Bay area, I have been afforded the opportunity to move back to Fort Myers and work with my father, Shelly Finman. As a result of my understanding and appreciation of how much time and energy he has expended in building his solo law practice (and establishing his distinguished reputation among the legal community throughout the country), I am equally invested in our firm and our clients.. I understand how emotions and feelings can take over a client's ability to act rationally, and I am focused on a client-centered, child-focused process, as the family transcends from marriage. My motto is "(f)amilies are forever and thus divorce transforms, rather than ends, family relationships." (quote from article by John Lande and Forrest S. Mosten, FAMILY LAWYERING: PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE, FAMILY COURT REVIEW, Vol. 51, No. 1, January 2013, 20-27, 2013, Association of Family and Conciliation Courts). My goals are to pay attention to my client's goals and interests, help guide the client in a constructive and cooperative fashion, and help make a constructive difference in the lives of my client and his or her family. My father and I have a common goal, which is to make a difference in the lives of our clients, their children, and their families.
