I am an associate attorney with my main area of practice being Family Law. I handle all different family law matters, including, but not limited to, divorce, child custody, child support, visitation matters, premarital agreements, and adoptions. As a wife to a Navy veteran and mother to a child with special needs, I have an interest in exploring issues concerning military family law and special needs laws and guardianships.
I reside in Portsmouth, Rhode Island with my husband, Jim, our three children, and our dog. Prior to joining the practice, I specialized in criminal law with a focus on DUI Defense. My area of practice is family law, concentrating on divorce, child custody, child support, and visitation. I have an interest in exploring issues concerning family law and special needs law specific to children and young adolescents.
When you work with me, you are always in safe hands.
