Naples, Florida, United States

I continue to handle dozens of family cases at any given time, working remotely from my new home in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The skills and duties required are identical to those described in my position with the Firm as an associate attorney.

Naples, Florida, United States

At any given time handle dozens of family cases, including actions such as divorce, paternity, step-parent adoption, and modification. I handle all aspects of these cases, from client intake, to legal research, legal drafting, and trials. Additionally, I also handle appeals and have the privilege of presenting oral arguments supporting my briefs before a panel of judges from Florida's Second District Court of Appeals. Family cases are often highly emotional and involve more than litigation. To that end, I take a holistic approach to each case, helping clients work on other areas of their lives, from mental healthcare, to addiction, to employment. In my time with Family First Legal Group, I have been able to help hundreds of clients through some of the most difficult times in their lives, leaving them happy and hopeful for the future.
