After 30 wonderful years with Chaleff Rehwald Peterson, the time has come for me to step back from full time employment starting in 2025 to focus solely on new client development. The firm has been renamed Rehwald Peterson under the seasoned leadership of Kevin Rehwald and Lauren Peterson, two excellent and successful attorneys in caregiver law.

This change in role is the continuation of a successful legal career. Growing up in Southern California, I graduated from Notre Dame High School in 1986 and earned my B.A. from UCLA in 1990. I attended Pepperdine University, School of Law, graduating cum laude in 1994.. As a young attorney I joined the firm of Rehwald Rameson Lewis and Glasner and began working on personal injury and employment discrimination cases.
