There are few events in life more stressful than a divorce or more devastating than the passing of a loved one. For 30 years, I have been assisting families and individuals in resolving sensitive divorce issues and guiding them through the complex web of laws related to wills and probate. After practicing with law firms in New Hampshire and Georgia, I founded my own firm in 2012 to give you the personal attention that such sensitive legal matters demand. As an active member of the communities of Cherokee and Cobb counties, I’ve come to know a wide range of people on a personal basis, just as I have done for the past 30 years. Hearing their stories is a constant reminder of how vitally important sound legal advice can be in times of need. I am one of the few attorneys in the area who concentrates on both divorce and wills and probate. When you need a sympathetic ear and experienced legal advice, I am only a phone call away and ready to help you through a troubling time. And while I take your legal case very seriously, I try not to take myself too seriously — laughter is, after all, the best medicine, and I find that a good sense of humor goes a long way in helping you to relax — especially during stressful situations.
