I am a solo-practitioner here to help with Family Law Matters including Divorce, Paternity, Temporary Restraining Orders and the resulting Orders for Protection, Child Support and Enforcement, as well as Pre and Post Nuptial agreements for those trying to stay together and think ahead regarding their finances. I am a local girl, born and raised by a first generation Woman Attorney (Bernice Littman) and a Professor of Classics (Dr. Robert Littman). I am a proud graduate of La Pietra and Univeristy of Hawaii at Manoa including my J.D. from the William S. Richardson School of Law. I have handled hundreds of family law cases with my best grace and wits given the important and heavy subject matter. I have both the life and legal experience to effectively represent my clients with zest and what we Jews like to call Chutzpah. Family Law is a delicate beast and needs to be treated with a level of care as though the Attorney's own life is on the line. These are live cases and I have the wherewithal to treat them as such and assist my Clients to strategize and prepare for the unexpected. I specialize in Military Divorces and when necessary can take a contested, relocation Child Custody Matter to Trial. However, as it takes such an expensive monetary and emotional toll on the Clients to fight over keiki, money, and property, I always attempt and push settlement through discussions and mediation. A Contested Heading at Hawaii Family Court should be a last resort only when all else fails or it is an emergency.

Mrs. Ruble's practice areas include family law, divorce, separation, custody, child support, legitimation, family violence, and Depedancy/DFCS actions.  Her practice areas include both family law matters and business litigation.   Charlotte became interested in family law based on a guardianship action for her niece and nephew prior to law school.  This exposure to the Family Law Court system launched empathy for individuals going through family transitions.   Charlotte also finds that her business background is frequently used to analyze the financial transitions that occur in family law cases, helping her strategically advise clients to prepare for their financial future.. Charlotte began practicing law with the Chair of the Family Law Section of the Georgia Bar.  The Family Law section of the Georgia Bar is a professional organization associated with the lawyer licensing board in Georgia.   Mentored by the chair for nearly two years, Charlotte gained extensive litigation experience in family law.  This litigation experience coupled with her internship in the Superior Court of Cherokee County with Judge Ellen McElyea  has provided countless hours of family law arguments, strategies, and knowledge in this field.. Mrs. Ruble handles a broad range of family law cases including divorce, separation, custody, child support, legitimation, family violence actions, and Dependancy/DFCS actions.   Modification actions and contempt proceedings are also part of her practice area.  Mrs. Ruble advocates for her clients' interests in a cost effective approach.  Clients are not only advised on the legal issues in their case, but also cost effective strategies for their case.  This includes advisement on courses of action and the financial considerations for those actions.  Mrs. Ruble strongly believes that parties should try to resolve matters in a collaborative fashion whenever possible, however, she understands that there are times when it is necessary and appropriate to use her litigation background as a strategic advantage for clients...

Mrs. Ruble worked for the Foreign Commerical Service sector of the United State Government at the American Consulate in Munich, Germany in 2008.  She then decided to transition her passion for law into a more domestic setting attending Mercer University School of Law.    In addition to the rigors of a law school curriculum, Mrs. Ruble interned with Judge Ellen McElyea in the Superior Court of Cherokee County and then worked as a law clerk for Weinberg, Wheeler, Hudgins, Gunn, & Dial for two years while finishing law school.. At Weinberg, Wheeler, Hudgins, Gunn, & Dial, Mrs. Ruble gained litigation experience working on large scale insurance defense cases in areas including premise liability, medical malpratice, breach of contract, and trucking accidents.  While she thoroughly enjoyed the court room side of this practice area, Mrs. Ruble felt that the human component and connection with clients was an essential and the most rewarding part of being a lawyer..

I know that my clients are usually in a difficult situation when they come to me for help. I work to answer all of their questions and to put them at ease. Why work with an "agressive" lawyer who is going to fight with everyone over every issue? That is only going to increase your legal fees and your stress level. Instead work with a lawyer you know, like and trust!. I grew up in Blue Bell, PA and graduated from Wissahickon High School. I formed Knapp Law, to better serve the specific needs of my clients and to change the “typical law firm experience”. I currently live in Montgomery County with my wife and two children. I enjoy working out and practicing martial arts.  During the summer, I spend time on Long Beach Island, New Jersey with my family..

My criminal background is advantageous in many family law matters, particularly those where criminal allegations are pending, or domestic violence is alleged and protection orders are being sought.. My philosophy is to negotiate where possible, but not to waste my client’s time and money trying to reach agreement when none is forthcoming.  I am not anxious to litigate over every issue, but I am very qualified and competent in those instances where a court appearance or trial is necessary.

There are no boilerplate results in family law. I approach family law cases with an open mind and learn as much about the client as possible.
