Practice Areas: Divorce & Separation
Family Law touches upon the most vital and visceral aspects of our lives: our children, our spouses, our property, our money, our emotional and psychological well-being. I have found that a strong, zealous and caring advocate is the best weapon when faced with legal changes to familial relationships. I endeavor to be just such an advocate for my clients.. For over a decade I owned and operated a litigation support company in New York and Boston that assisted trial attorneys in the managment and litigation of their cases. This gave me the opportunity to see numerous attorneys in practice and what worked (and didn't work) in attorney/client relations and the practice of law. When I became an attorney myself I brought that knowledge and experience into my own practice.. Contact me if you are facing, or are contemplating, a legal action. You will be pleased with the personalize attention your individual matter receives.

303 Congress Street , Boston , Massachusetts 02210
Practice Areas: Divorce & Separation
I focus my practice exclusively in the area of Domestic Relations and cover the full spectrum of family law issues.. With respect to Divorce there is a difference between giving up and knowing when you've just had enough. At this critical point in your life, who you select as your counsel, can make a difference in not only the result but also the person you become in the process of it all. What might feel like a painful end is a whole new beginning. What if the journey isn't so much about undoing a marriage but about finding out what you are capable of becoming. I pride myself in enpowering and supporting my clients through this process, not just to receive a great and equitable result but to get them to the other side with strength, power and optimism.. Education: I attended Northeastern University in Boston and obtained a Bachelors in Science with a double major in Criminal Justice and Political Science. I attended Suffolk University Law School where I obtained my Juris Doctorate Degree, and was admitted to practice before the Massachusetts Bar that same year.
