About Us

Meet Our Team

We have a diverse set of lawyers on our team. Most of our lawyers are family law specialists who have devoted their careers to taking a deep dive into the issues surrounding family law practice. Some have business or real estate law experience in their backgrounds, which helps them navigate the sticky issues associated with high net worth or farm divorces.

Regardless of which lawyer you end up with, you can rest assured that you are in good hands. All of our lawyers are committed to taking care of you and looking out for your best interests. Each lawyer is responsive, caring, and ready to educate you on your options and the law.
