Family Law Overview

Florida Family Law Attorney

No other area of law affects parties involved to the extent that family law does. The welfare of children, the emotional ties that bind adults, the breakdown of the powerful institution marriage, and the economic consequences of failed family relationships all are issues that fall under the umbrella of family law. When working with a family law attorney a client must discuss intimate and sensitive issues that may have a bearing on the outcome of the client's case. Often the stress in a marriage has been aggravated by financial difficulties, and children are showing signs of distress.

An effective family law and divorce lawyer will provide powerful and aggressive advocacy and wise counsel, protecting the client's financial and parental rights while demonstrating sensitivity to the client's overall situation. I have committed my legal career to issues affecting families and children, and offer twenty-two years of experience as a trial lawyer. During that period I served not only as a private family law attorney but also as a state prosecutor handling misdemeanors and felonies, and an HRS senior attorney handling family and children's issues, a counselor, and a Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Mediator.
