Our Founder

Kate’s journey into family law began with her own personal experience. When her husband faced challenges seeing his daughter from a previous relationship, Kate took it upon herself to research and navigate the complex world of custody law. Through a lengthy and contentious battle, she helped secure custody of her stepdaughter, later adopting her in 2020. This pivotal experience ignited Kate’s passion for family law and her commitment to helping others through similar challenges.

Kate approaches her clients’ cases with a foundation of empathy, setting realistic expectations, and maintaining professionalism throughout every step of the process. She understands firsthand the emotional toll family law matters can take and is dedicated to offering strong advocacy while fostering collaboration and open communication. Her personal experience drives her commitment to helping clients reach resolutions that are in the best interest of their families.

One of Kate’s proudest accomplishments is going back to school at 29 to earn her paralegal certificate and, ten years later, passing the Licensed Legal Paraprofessional exam and being sworn in at 39. The most rewarding case of her career was her involvement in her own stepdaughter’s adoption, a case that confirmed her calling to family law.

As a Licensed Legal Paraprofessional, Kate offers limited scope representation, assisting clients in drafting and filing important legal documents related to family law matters. Her areas of expertise include divorce, child custody, and adoption. She is passionate about guiding her clients through the often-complex family law system with a practical, client-centered approach.
