As a native of Northern Virginia, I have here focused my practice on providing goal oriented representation to clients navigating the difficult legal waters of family law (domestic relations), including contested divorce, child custody and visitation, child support, spousal support (alimony), and equitable distribution (property division). My persuasive style has been well received in courtrooms throughout Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia, and is continually nuanced by a body of experience sufficient to deliver sophisticated results for my clients. In 2015, for example, through negotiation or litigation, my firm handled the equitable distribution of more than half a billion dollars in assets. C-Level executives, business owners, professional athletes, radio/television personalities, and politicians have sought out our firm for advice on family law matters. I have personally represented clients in Maryland and the District of Columbia who control eight-figure family asset portfolios and clients in Virginia who control nine-figure family asset portfolios. I have also qualified as an expert in Virginia family law in a foreign jurisdiction. My professional experience includes practicing alongside the partners of several of Northern Virginia’s most prestigious boutique family law firms and serving as a clerk for the judges of the U.S. Tax Court. My legal abilities have been recognized by my inclusion in Washingtonian Magazine, Northern Virginia Magazine, Self Magazine, Forbes Magazine, Washington Business Journal, Martindale-Hubble, AVVO, Super Lawyers, and Ten Leaders in the Law, among other publications. I am also the author of the popular Virginia Family Law Blog: www.familylawva.com. Areas of Practice: Contested Divorce, High Asset/Complex Divorce, Spousal Support, Child Support, Child Visitation and Child Custody, Equitable Distribution, and Document Review
