What we handle
Family law is personal. We keep it steady, honest and as calm as the situation allows.

Child and spousal support
Establishing, modifying and enforcing support orders.
Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements
Drafted and reviewed before and during marriage.
Domestic violence restraining orders
Protective orders obtained and defended, with same-week court dates when needed.
Mediation
Attorney-led mediation for couples who want to settle outside court.
How we work
Rosa, our office manager, takes a few details and runs a short conflict check. It protects you; we can't discuss your matter until it clears.
In person or by video. We'll tell you what to expect, what it will likely cost and how long it tends to take, before you decide anything.
Fees and the retainer are set out in writing before any work begins. No surprises on the invoice.
Same attorney from the first meeting to the last order. Calls returned the same day.
Nothing on this website, in a first email or in a first call is legal advice, and none of it creates an attorney-client relationship. That begins when we've met, cleared conflicts, and signed an agreement together.
From former clients
"Elena told me on day one what the realistic outcomes were and what each would cost. Nobody else I spoke to would do that."
"Our mediation took four sessions. We left with a parenting plan we both signed and a working relationship for the kids' sake."
"Marcus returned every call the same day for eleven months. That alone was worth it."
