Biography

As a family law attorney, my primary focus is to support clients through the legal process so they may transition into the next chapter of their lives. Prior to representing clients, I worked as judicial law clerk in Hennepin County Family Court. Working side-by-side with judges, I gained an immense understanding of family court procedure, and how judges decide cases. I translate that experience to my practice every day, assisting clients in making the best decisions for their families. I have experience representing clients in all aspects of family law cases, including divorce proceeding, child custody and support matters, paternity actions, Orders for Protection, grandparent visitation cases. I have advised clients on issues relating to child custody and parenting time, property division, child support, spousal maintenance, enforcement of orders, and modification of orders relating to custody, parenting time and support. I also have experience dealing with the unique challenges that arise during a divorce when a member of the family is a non-US citizen, including addressing immigration issues, implications under the affidavit of support (Form I-864), and international travel with children. I am committed to providing families with dedicated legal care. I take pride in advocating for families to deliver long-term, sustainable solutions. I look forward to getting to know my clients and their families as I guide you through the process.
