Know that you don’t have to be alone

Providing legal representation for children and families during important life transitions like foster placement, adoptions, or losing a loved one is my focus and my passion.

I have been litigating cases on behalf of abused and neglected children for over ten years. In 2021, I expanded my areas of practice to include adoptions, relative placments and De Facto Parent representation.

It is my mission to help families navigate the intersection between court systems to feel safe and assured that their interests are being protected and their best outcome is the goal. Let me help make a difference in your life.
