Firm: Cascade Legal Solutions

1833 N 105th St, Suite 304 , Seattle , Washington 98133

Practice Areas: Family

My favorite cases are pre/postnuptial and co-habitation agreements.  Putting together an agreement like this allows a family to have the hard conversations as a team, rather than as adversaries.  I've found a well prepared family unit doesn't require my services again.. In every case, whether agreed or extremely adversarial, I do my best to see that my client and their family remains as emotionally, psychologically, and financially intact as possible.. In my free time, I'm an avid baker, care-taker for abused and abandonded dogs, and, despite a black-thumb, I hope to start growing herbs. I enjoy spending weekends hosting game nights or hiking with my partner and our dog.

I strive to be that advocate for each and every one of my clients.. Background. As a native Northwesterner, I grew up in the Seattle-area before heading slightly south to the University of Oregon to obtain my undergraduate degree. I returned to Seattle to attend Seattle University School of Law, and graduated in 2015.. Outside of the office, I enjoy spending time with my family, especially outdoors. In the winter, I like to spend weekends at Crystal Mountain with my husband and two children (one human child & one 90 lb. doodle). And in the summer, I love soaking up Vitamin D wherever and whenever possible to store for the long NW winters.
