Top best Domestic Partnership Lawyers in ZIP 22182 | 6 available

My goal is to provide superior legal services to clients who need help with a family law matter and estate planning.  My promise is to always listen to your concerns and work with you to find the best way to achieve your goals.  My personal guarantee is to give you candid advice about your situation and answers to the questions that are keeping you up at night.  My clients benefit from my team's thorough, practical, and compassionate approach to their legal questions and problems.  They love the peace of mind we bring them during the legal process.. When I'm not at work, you can find me watching my kids' gymnastics competitions, running a local 5K (coming in pretty close to the end at this point but running nonetheless!), volunteering with my family at local food shelters, or reading a new spy or mystery novel.

Most family law attorneys regard courtroom proceedings as a necessary, but hopefully avoidable, part of their practice. Not SmolenPlevy’s Kyung (Kathryn) Dickerson, who enjoys the challenge of the courtroom. “I love going to court,” Dickerson says. “It’s a constant proving ground. Being in court keeps you sharp and focused and if you enjoy being in the courtroom, then each appearance teaches you how to become a better attorney.” Even though Dickerson often tries to steer clients away from the courtroom and toward less adversarial negotiations, especially when there are children involved, she knows divorce cases frequently end up in front of a judge. When they do, she’s ready. “The evidence is the evidence. The difference for any client is the ability of his or her attorney to persuasively argue that client’s side of the case to the judge.”

As of April 1, 2021, I have assumed Senior Counsel status with Offit Kurman.  In this limited capacity, I am providing advice and counsel to a limited number of existing clients. I am no longer litigating cases in court or accepting new clients.  If you have a family law matter, I can refer you to one of my colleagues who are highly qualified to handle any domestic relations matter including divorce, custody & visitation, support and property issues.
