About Me
Stephanie is an associate attorney in the firm’s Divorce & Family practice, where she works with individuals and families navigating some of life’s most personal and challenging transitions. She works with clients across a range of issues, including divorce, custody, child support, and related disputes, providing steady guidance during times of significant transition. Stephanie approaches her practice with a balance of empathy and practicality. She understands that no two families or cases are alike, and she takes the time to listen closely to her clients’ goals and concerns. Whether advocating in court or working toward resolution outside of it, Stephanie is focused on achieving outcomes that are both effective and sustainable, while helping clients feel informed and supported throughout the process. Outside of her practice, she enjoys spending time with family and friends, exploring new restaurants, and taking advantage of all that Western New York has to offer.
