Testimonials
Ms. Lumi handled my divorce. As stressful as divorce matters are, especially when children are involved, my anxiety was through the roof. Ms. Lumi handled it in an efficient manner and made the entire process painless. I had limited funds, and she expedited the litigation to keep the costs down for me. At the time of my divorce, I worked for a law firm, which handled mostly personal injury matters, but after seeing how Ms. Lumi handled my case, I was so moved by her compassion and knowledge of family law that I applied for a job at her firm and have worked with her ever since. I have seen and worked with many attorneys over the years, but they pale in comparison. If you are looking for an attorney who will guide you in the right direction, make you feel at ease during such a stressful time and for someone who truly has your back, she is definitely the attorney of choice.
