Biography
I am a trial lawyer with a boutique practice that helps people. My Firm concentrates in family law – Divorce, Paternity, Custody, and Prenuptial Agreements – consumer bankruptcy and real estate law, Foreclosure Defense and other real estate litigation - we have a title agency, engage in short sale negotiations --- I have highly skilled attorneys in each area --- we work together as a team. We help our Clients navigate a difficult, challenging, often uncertain process and assist them in achieving the best possible results. What’s unique about my practice is that I can assist people in all aspects of their personal and financial troubles from aggressively pursuing a divorce, to defending a foreclosure, short selling a property, bankruptcy and assisting them in rebuilding their credit. Unlike most law firms, we offer all of these services under one roof.

Legal Answers
258 Questions Answered
- Q. My parents are divorced and have dual custody over me, can I ask my dad if I could stay with my mom on certain days?
- A: I’m sorry to hear that you’ve been put in this position by the unfortunate circumstances of divorce. To answer your question, if you ask your dad permission to stay with your mom, he does have control over you as to where you will be staying during his court ordered time. If he says no, the only thing you can do is to ask your mom to go to court to modify the time sharing plan to reflect your work schedule. It is refreshing to hear that a 16 year old has a job and actually is excited to go to work. I've got a feeling you are going to be a very successful adult. I wish you good luck!
- Q. I received a letter about an unlawful detainer but i'm not too sure what it means.
- A: Think of an unlawful detainer as an eviction. An unlawful detainer action is brought against someone living on the premises where there is or was a relationship between the person who owns or rents the property and the person that they are in a relationship with. It could be a boyfriend/girlfriend, brother/sister, etc. Based on your narrative, this person cannot simply change the locks and put your clothes on the street. This person must go through the legal process, that is file a lawsuit with the court to have you removed from the premises or, as you may understand it, evicted from the premises. I wish you luck.
- Q. How does a judge decide who gets the house when you get a divorce?
- A: The judge would simply order the house sold and have the realized funds distributed equitably. Good luck.
