Although originally from the East Coast, I prefer the desert climate and lifestyle and have resided happily in Tucson for the past eighteen years with my husband and son (I've only resided with him for the last eight years because he’s only eight years old). I believe that in family law, no two clients and no two cases are the same so all representation must be carefully tailored to meet the goals and needs of each individual client with either preventive measures or litigation - whichever achieves the client’s goals. I can see both side of any argument, which is evident by the fact that I like both dogs and cats, Wildcats anyways, in equal measure. Never shy about voicing my opinion, whether solicited or not, I have been playfully referred to as a wallflower due to my ability to "speak" in terms that would make a longshoreman blush.
