The firm, as a whole, is formidable. Our partners and senior attorneys handle a wide range of sophisticated matters, from cases with complex financials and child custody issues to family law appeals, Hague Convention cases in federal court, and more. Our associate attorneys are equally as busy, and are the engine that powers our robust access to justice low bono program, Justice for All, in which we lower our attorney rates to as low as $75 an hour. All in all, we're a team of highly experienced divorce and family law attorneys and support staff. We have 20 attorneys, most of whom have 15-35 years of experience, with each member having individual expertise and unique litigation experiences. We have certified financial litigators, guardian ad litems, an ARC counsel, a collaboratively trained attorney, and mediators among the team. Partners and senior attorneys may delegate work to associate attorneys at their discretion. Our paralegal team is highly capable and experienced and members support each other as needed given the workload. Paralegals typically support 2-4 attorneys, but with a team approach, we can flex to the needs of the business. Every member of our team is available to provide perspective and insight on case issues as they arise. They'll also call you on you periodically for your insights. While we are empowered to excel individually at this firm, we work as a team to deliver excellent service to our clients.
