Biography
I have accumulated experience working closely with families over time, initially as a researcher, followed by roles as a social work intern specializing in family interventions, and a legal intern focusing on mental health and family court matters. Currently, I practice as a lawyer. My philosophy revolves around assisting individuals in navigating their present challenges while also recognizing the importance of preparing for the future. My goal is to empower clients by providing them with the necessary information and confidence to navigate the legal process, be it through litigation or mediation. I believe that by ensuring clients are well-prepared for what lies ahead, I am effectively fulfilling my role. Connect with me on LinkedIn.
