I currently handle cases involving Family law (Divorce, paternity, child support/custody, guardianship, and restraining orders); Risk management and expert Nursing services.. After spending more than 25 years advocating for patients as a Registered Nurse, I became an Attorney and now I advocate just as fiercely for my all my clients.. I enjoy practicing law as a sole practitioner, it affords me the opportunity to give each client the attention they deserve without having to be accountable to a Corporate structure.. I have varied interests that lead me to different areas of the law. While I focus on a few areas, I will take other cases that interest me.. I have stopped taking housing cases as of 2020.
