I am a sport and community junky. Growing up, I was involved in sports, church, clubs, and every extracurricular activity that was available to me. I thought I had a normal life, until I realized that I was going to become a child of divorced parents. I knew it would be a pivotal moment that would shape my future – and if you don’t believe me, I can refer you to a childhood journal entry that describes it in much more detail! While I did not understand the legal system or the ins and out of divorce, I knew I was different than most of my friends because I was a child of divorce. It was in those early years that I realized I wanted to make a difference long-term for other families and children facing separation and divorce. I knew that I could guide them as they discovered what their new “normal” would look like.. Giving back to people and being empathetic is who I am. The older I became, the more I was drawn to studying legal issues and developed an interest and love in the vast variety of what the law could teach us, how it could shape us, and how it influences our every day. While in high school, I received a recommendation for a position that had become available with a local law office. I walked into that office for an interview as a junior in high school, accepted a part-time position, and never looked back.. After ten years of being paralegal, working during the day and attending college at night, I knew I could do more. I applied for law school and was accepted. I attended law school part-time and continued my work as a paralegal. In my final year, I transferred to a full-time law student and graduated. I am now licensed to practice law in both North Carolina and South Carolina. I spend my days helping families navigate the ins and outs of divorce the same way an attorney helped my family and me all those years ago. Additionally, finding myself in the middle of divorce as a wife, mother, and attorney has added another layer of experience and challenge to the list of categories that enhance my ability to bring a unique perspective to family law cases, empathize with my clients, and understand the many emotions that family law cases bring.. I am a licensed Family Law Mediator in North Carolina and a Family Court Guardian Ad Litem in York County, South Carolina. While my focus has primarily been in the practice area of family law both as an attorney and as a Guardian Ad Litem, I also have experience in criminal law and traffic law, as well as estate planning and estate administration.. I love family law and helping those that find their definition of "family" is changing.

I have been licensed to practice law in South Carolina since November, 1973, and I have been involved in the practice of family law since January, 1974. I was a Family Court Judge from July, 1998, until January 1, 2009, at which time I retired from the bench to begin and maintain a full time, statewide mediation/arbitration practice.. I have been an instructor at the Orientation School for New Family Court Judges from 2004 through 2008, and in 2005 – 2006, was the president of the South Carolina Conference of Family Court Judges, and the chairperson of the South Carolina Family Court Judges Advisory Committee to the Chief Justice of the South Carolina Supreme Court. In 2004, I had the privilege of being appointed as the chairperson of the Family Court Judges subcommittee of the Chief Justice’s Task Force on Trial Court Operations.. Beginning in May, 2017, and continuing to this present date, I became one of the instructors for the University of South Carolina Children’s Law Center in its mock trial training sessions for the South Carolina Department of Social Services child welfare professionals; and I consider this work to be both consequential and a uniquely satisfying area in my practice of family law.. I have been a frequent guest lecturer, with prepared materials, at statewide South Carolina Bar/CLE Division seminars, at the Annual South Carolina Solicitors’ Conference and at local Bar-related programs, speaking on a variety of family law topics. For 2005 and 2006, I was the program coordinator and presenter for the Family Court Judges’ seminars at the Annual Judicial Conference.. I continue to practice family law, in various forms, under the umbrella of The Knobel Group, which includes my continuing as a certified family court mediator as Knobel Mediation Services, LLC, and, additionally, through Family Court Litigation Support Services and Early Neutral Evaluation Services.

My law practice began as a clerk for the South Carolina Circuit Court. I worked for Judge James C. "Jimmy" Williams for a year before transitioning to private practice. My first three years of private practice focused on Criminal Defense, particularly DUI Defense.. As time progressed my Family Law Practice conitnued to grow and consumed more of my time. The joy I find in helping my clients with their domestic issues meant that those same clients reffered more and more friends and family members to me and my firm. As a result, I only handle DUI or criminal defense case for prior clients or refferals. My true love and passion is in our state's family courts.. There is little else more important than our families and our children. The toll a separation and divorce can take on an individual's emotional, physical and spiritual health demands that they can trust, respect and bond with their lawyer. I work hard to establish that connection with each person I represent and will conitnue to do it so long as I practice law.
