Approach to Family Law
Allison’s goal in representing a client is to resolve their case in the most cost-effective and amicable manner possible while achieving a fair and reasonable result. Allison brings a genuine empathetic understanding to her client’s situation – she wants to make sure her clients and their goals are heard and addressed in the process. Allison seeks to empower her clients to regain control in their lives despite the family law issues they are experiencing and, together, to help her clients move forward in a positive direction.
Personal Life
In her spare time, Allison enjoys playing baseball and hockey, camping, hiking and
travelling.
