Family Mediation
No one knows and understands your unique family dynamic quite like you. We work to empower families to make their own decisions through the process of mediation, avoiding the unknown outcome of litigation.
Dependency Law
Whether facing a dependency or a termination of parental rights petition, we know that the only thing scarier than facing criminal charges is the prospect of losing your child. With so much at stake, it’s important to have someone in your corner to help you navigate the system.
Family Law
When dealing with the uniquely emotionally charged and legally complex issues of family law, you need an attorney who’s competent and aggressive, but at the same time, compassionate.
