About Me<\/h2>\n

I started my legal career with the Portsmouth Public Defender’s Office.\u00a0 This served as an invaluable experience as I handled\u00a0all types of criminal cases from\u00a0misdemeanor driving charges to murder.\u00a0 After almost four years as an Assistant Public Defender, I decided to take a position with the Chesapeake Commonwealth Attorney’s Office as\u00a0a Vice and Narcotics’ prosecutor.\u00a0\u00a0I handled cases involving large scale\u00a0drug distribution, possession charges, DUIs\/DWIs, animal cruelty,\u00a0violent crimes and civil forfeiture matters.<\/p>\n

During\u00a0 my time as a prosecutor, I trained detectives on how to be an effective expert witness and present the evidence needed to win the case.\u00a0 Now as a defense attorney, I use those same skills to pick apart the prosecution’s case and zealously represent my clients,\u00a0protect their interests and help keep them out of jail.<\/p>\n

In addition, I am now a single mother and understand the hardships of divorce\/separation\u00a0on a family.\u00a0I personally understand the importance of a competent and caring attorney that can\u00a0help you\u00a0through the trying times of divorce and related custody matters.\u00a0It is a difficult time that no one should feel that they have to endure without someone in their corner fighting for them.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” width=”1\/2″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\n
