Family is everything to me. I’m lucky to have an extremely supportive family that provides me with unconditional love and laughter. I love spending time together celebrating holidays and birthdays, making memories, and starting new family traditions.
I’m truly blessed to have a circle of family and friends who support me. My 2 children are my world, and I love creating new memories and starting special traditions with them. I’m also fortunate to live just 2 minutes from my parents, so we often gather for family dinners at Nana and Papa’s house. Some of my favorite moments are when we sit around the table together, sharing a meal and catching up on the latest and greatest in each other’s lives.
My favorite happily ever divorce story has to be my first divorce. I represented a wife who felt like she had no options. The husband was the breadwinner and controlled the finances. The husband was also emotionally abusive towards the wife and would berate her in the presence of the minor children. At the conclusion of the divorce, the wife received the house, custody of the children, and most importantly, her peace back.
