High-quality family law representation,  sound,  common-sense counsel,  and mindful attention to costs incurred and benefits achieved. 

Ann Oakleaf represents clients in Divorce,  Paternity,  and other matters related to Family Law.  She has been certified by the State Bar as a Family Law Specialist for 25 years.

Family Law involves complex legal issues and highly charged emotions.  The outcomes have far-reaching consequences for the parties,  their children,  extended family members,  and others.  Ann believes representation in Family Law requires knowledge of the law and an understanding and appreciation of the individual client and their needs.  Her goal is to educate her clients of their rights and obligations and to help them understand what is achievable.  She believes reasonable compromise and settlement often benefits her clients more than costly litigation and trial.  She also knows that a reasonable compromise results from a position of strength and readiness to take the case to trial.
