I started this firm because I wanted to do one kind of work, and I wanted to do it well. I have practiced family law exclusively since I was admitted to the North Carolina State Bar in 2014. There is no other kind of case I take, and there has not been since the firm opened.

I grew up in a household where my parents handled their separation as well as two adults could. I watched what good representation looked like — not because either of them showed me any documents, but because I watched them get through a difficult thing and remain decent to each other. I have spent my career trying to help families do the same. The cases that warrant a fight, get one. Most of them benefit from something more deliberate.

My practice covers the full range of NC family law — divorce, custody, support, equitable distribution, prenups, and adoption — with particular focus on cases involving complex assets and contested custody. I am Board-Certified by the North Carolina State Bar as a specialist in family law, a designation that requires substantial trial experience, peer review, and an examination administered by the Bar.

Outside the firm, I serve on the Family Law Section Council of the NC Bar Association and lecture regularly at CLE programs around the state. I write a quarterly column on NC family law for the Mecklenburg County Bar journal. I live in Charlotte with my partner and two children.

When you call us, you'll talk to a real person. When you engage us, you will know what you are paying for, what we are doing, and why. That is the practice I wanted when I opened the firm, and that is the practice we have now.
