I’m here to make the law more bearable.
My Message
Practicing law is fundamentally an opportunity to help people during some of the most challenging times in their lives. Working as a family lawyer for seven years, I have handled difficult and complex family law cases from beginning to end. I have extensive experience in the area of domestic violence and restraining orders.
My law practice is set up to enable virtual legal services to the extent possible. I handle dissolutions, separations, child custody, child support, paternity cases, stepparent adoptions, guardianships and dependency cases. I am also a misdemeanor contract attorney for Lake Indigent Defense starting November 2021.
Practicing in all Northern California counties!
Family law is the journey of who can be most reasonable under unreasonable circumstances.
Background
My Doctor of Jurisprudence is from Golden Gate University School of Law with Distinction in Family Law.
I attended American Jewish University and graduated magna cum laude in 2008 with a BA in Communication, Arts and Advocacy.
Experience
I began working as a family lawyer with The Reape-Rickett Law Firm in Los Angeles in 2014. I joined Eric Alan Berg and Associates, located in Redding, in 2016 and practiced family law and criminal defense there until early 2020. After the adoption of my son, I took time off and relocated to Middletown, CA., where I established an independent practice in June 2020.
