Anastasia-Cholakis - Divorce lawyer in Albany, New York


Ana is an associate attorney at O’Brien & Associates, having joined the firm as a law clerk in August 2018. Ana earned her Juris Doctorate from Albany Law School of Union University, located in Albany, New York, in May 2021. Ana was admitted to the New York State Bar in April 2023.. Ana graduated from the University of Louisville in 2016, where she received her bachelor’s degree in psychology with minor concentrations in criminal justice and sociology. A Troy native with local ties that run deep, she returned to the Capital Region shortly thereafter and began law school.. Ana began her legal career first at O’Brien & Associates conducting research, collecting, and reviewing discovery, drafting documents, coordinating with clients, and attending court appearances with one of the supervising attorneys. She took a short break from O’Brien & Associates to experience criminal law, completing an internship with the Albany County District Attorney’s Office, where she assisted with victim interviews, conducted legal research, and attended and participated in arraignments. Her experiences in the legal field combined with her degree in psychology ultimately led her to matrimonial and family law, where she felt she could best use her skills as a communicator and an advocate. Having started as an assistant for her mother’s law firm in high school, Ana’s experience has provided her with a unique and practical understanding of how the laws, procedures and processes regarding divorce and family law litigation in New York apply to distinct and individual clients.. When she’s not at work, Ana enjoys spending time with her family, playing with her cats Apollo and Chief, gardening, and going to the Adirondacks every chance she gets.. Ana’s message to our clients is this: “as a young law school graduate with extensive experience in family law, I am dedicated to helping families navigate some of the most uniquely challenging times in their lives. I’ve chosen to pursue my career in matrimonial and family law because it offers me the opportunity to serve families directly and in a meaningful way by providing them with the legal guidance and support needed to move forward. I believe that every family deserves compassionate, individualized, and skilled representation, particularly during times of transition and uncertainty. I am committed to upholding the highest standards of professionalism, ethics, and excellence in my practice, and to using my skills and expertise to help families achieve the best possible outcomes for themselves and their loved ones.”

Gabrielle-McQuay - Divorce lawyer in Albany, New York


With an understanding that no two families, nor the experience that individuals have in those families, are alike, I have attempted to expand both my knowledge and skills in the field of Family Law by engaging in a variety of learning experiences. While earning my undergraduate degree in Social Work, I worked as a case worker for Parsons Foster Care, aiding in the growth of youth in our care. While in Law School, I was employed at the Office of Children and Family Services, working both in their litigation department and overseeing abuse and neglect appeals. After graduating cum laude from Albany Law School in 2019, I began my career as a Family Attorney at Cordell Law, LLP, specializing in domestic litigation. Everyday I continue to learn from this field, from my career, and from my clients. Being able to meet people where they are and work with them towards a brighter future drives a successful attorney and in turn a successful law firm.
