With 20+ years of combined experience as a Senior Paralegal and Associate Attorney, I’ve dedicated my career to delivering results-driven legal support and advocacy in Family Law and Criminal Defense. I’ve handled a wide spectrum of matters—from high-conflict custody and guardianship cases to felony defense, probation violations, and post-conviction relief. Whether in a supporting or lead role, I bring a strong command of procedural law, case strategy, and courtroom preparation. My background includes drafting detailed legal pleadings, coordinating discovery, managing multi-jurisdictional dockets, preparing clients for hearings, and ensuring full compliance with local court rules across multiple states working remotely! As a Senior Paralegal, I’ve been the engine behind fast-paced litigation teams—managing deadlines, organizing evidence, and maintaining client trust in emotionally charged situations. As an Associate Attorney, I’ve applied that same rigor and empathy to legal advocacy, ensuring each case is not only heard, but fully understood. I’m tech-forward, highly organized, and committed to bridging the gap between efficient case management and exceptional client care. I excel in legal software such as Clio, MyCase, and Lexis+, and thrive in both remote and in-office environments. Clients and colleagues alike describe me as reliable, compassionate, and fiercely detail-oriented. My mission is simple: to make a difference in every case and for every client—one motion, one conversation, and one outcome at a time. Let’s connect and explore how I can bring value to your legal team.
