People come to me at what is often the worst times in their lives.  I am mindful of that and understand my job is not simply to be their attorney but also to counsel and guide them through the rough waters. I am fortunate that my mom runs my office and together we make a great team with a personal touch. Over and over again our clients tell us how they feel they can relax now that their case has been turned over to me and my office.

I have been a family law attorney for 28 years and have handled over 2000 cases involving adoption, termination of parental rights, divorce, custody and child support issues. I practice primarily in Gwinnett County since I believe it is important that your attorney knows and is known by the judges.

I'm a parent too so I understand nothing is more important than your children's well-being. I've also been through the process myself so I don't just talk the talk, I have  walked the walk which means I know what you're going through on a personal level too. I am often appointed by judges to serve as a Guardian ad Litem - an attorney whose job it is to recommend to the court what custody and visitation arrangements are in the best interest of children whose parents are going through a custody dispute. As a result, I have earned the respect of judges for my passion as well as the direct and bold approach I bring as an advocate for my clients, whether they are adults or kids.

I am in court a lot. I have both the experience and the passion to persuade. Integrity means a lot to me and should to you too. I fight hard but I fight fair. I want to be proud of the work I've done and I encourage my clients to take the high road without sacrificing their rights, particularly when there are children involved.

I have represented husbands and wives and mothers and fathers and kids, which gives me a unique perspective and experience with the courts. I don't have associates. My office is me and my mom.  That means when you hire me, you don't get handed off to someone else. You get my efforts and my experience.
