I understand family trauma. I have first hand experience. When I was 9, my mother left my father, taking my four siblings and me with her. We were scared and fled with the clothes on our backs. We hid out in a tiny abandoned house with no plumbing or electricity. My mother was a strong woman. The only time I ever saw her cry was when one of us accidentally spilled a gallon of milk. It cost 25 cents back then. She had no idea how we’d replace it. Having no representation, my mother received a meager settlement. My life could not have prepared me better for this work.

Years later, I went to law school and learned how profoundly the legal system had failed my mother. She had no protection from domestic violence and no financial protection either. The divorce laws failed all six of us, and we all had our struggles as a result. So when I decided to become a family lawyer, I was determined to be one of the best divorce lawyers ever because I know better than most what’s at stake. To me, that meant protecting every client in two crucial ways that my mother was vulnerable: by becoming as fluent and sophisticated in finance as the most experienced opposing counsel, and by giving clients my mobile number and taking their calls at all times in case there’s a family emergency.
