My practice is concentrated in the areas of family law, minor criminal matters, probate and estate planning, and small business corporations. My family law practice includes divorce, child support, paternity, custody, visitation, alimony and spousal support, domestic violence, and juvenile matters including neglect and abuse.
I joined the firm in 2001 because of my interest in family law and my desire to work with family members again. Working alongside my sister, Gayle, and my father, Bob, has been an excellent and rewarding experience.
I earned my Juris Doctorate from Northern Kentucky University, Salmon P. Chase College of Law in 1996. I am admitted to practice in all state courts in Kentucky.
