But, when necessary, I have the experience of acting as trial counsel in over 600 contested family court issues. Most of my clients come from referrals, not advertising. So. what's your answers to the questions I asked? I know my answers. I've been where you are both personally and professionally and I know how you feel. You can move on if you're properly prepared for your future. Let me and my law firm help.
