My practice has involved a wide range of legal matters from commercial real estate, finance and international business transactions to litigation matters including commercial disputes, real estate, employment, and medical malpractice. Proficient in Spanish, I graduated from the University of Kentucky College of Law, the Patterson School of Diplomacy and International Commerce, and the University of Southern California. Prior to my legal career, I sought diverse professional experiences. After graduating from college, I orchestrated my own volunteering experience in southern Peru with a small non-profit organization. Later I gained valuable professional experience as part of a U.S. Senate campaign, and after that I joined the public policy team at Greater Louisville, Inc., Louisville's Chamber of Commerce affiliate. Prior to law school, I embarked on a month long excursion with the Northern Outdoor Leadership School in Alaska, which gave me a new found appreciation for sustainability.

Jennifer G.
Business and estate planning attorney with 12 years in law — five as licensed counsel, plus seven as a law clerk and legal assistant before that. I draft and review business contracts, form LLCs and corporations, and build wills, trusts, and estate plans. Two things make my work different. Alongside my JD I hold an LLM in Wealth Management and have passed the Series 65 (Uniform Investment Adviser Law Exam), so I understand the tax and financial mechanics behind a document, not just its language — the same rigor I've applied to trust and entity structures for families with $100M+ in assets goes into a single NDA review. And I spent years in civil litigation defending insurers and their insureds, so I know which clauses actually get fought over, and I draft with that in mind instead of pasting boilerplate. Flat-fee quotes whenever scope allows. Same-business-day responses. Most single-document projects delivered in 1–3 business days, with a plain-English summary of what I changed and why. Licensed in Texas (Bar No. 24123061) and malpractice insured; available nationwide for contract, business, and commercial matters that don't require state-specific admission. Message me what you're working on and I'll tell you honestly whether I'm the right fit.

Family Legal Questions and Answers
Family
Postnuptial Agreement
New York
What is the point of a postnuptial agreement?
I just got married and chose not to create a prenup.
Jane C.
A postnuptial agreement outlines how assets and child care responsibilities will be divided in the event of separation or divorce.

Medical Agreement
Virginia
My daughter who is 20 left the house with a man who is 15 year her senior am I obligated to had over all her personal documents
She does have some medical issues that needs medical appointments one for her eyes and heart when she was born I had German measles and she needs constant care
Michael T.
If she's fully competent, then at 20 years old she is entitled to make her own decisions about who she has relationships with. If you have documents that she needs to engage competent medical care, then, yes; she should have those documents. In theory, if she needed them badly enough, she could sue you for possession of the documents (it's called a replevin lawsuit). Withholding documents about her medical care in order to force her to obey you regarding her relationship choices could cause you legal trouble down the road. Not to mention the cost it will have to your personal relationship with her. You're better off in the long run making sure she gets her needed medical care and being there to support her if and when her relationship sours. Trying to hold her documents over her is not a good idea, either from a legal standpoint or a human standpoint. Good luck and I wish you the best.

Custodial Agreement
Michigan
Who do I contact for a cease and desist order
Daughters dads mom keeps harassing and threatening to call CPS and has called CPS on me to be able to see my daughter. I have given her ample chances to fix her mistakes cuz with her she won’t listen to the parent she does and takes things upon herself. Need this stopped please
David H.
Hello, my name is David hatch I'm a Michigan licensed attorney. I have several years of experience with parenting time and custody issues. That appears to be what you're asking about. It would be helpful first to understand more about the situation. Like if there is a divorce decree and find some time order or any other type of order related to the children in the situation you're dealing with. Once I understand the situation I can help you determine a course of action.

Prenuptial Agreement
Massachusetts
How does a prenuptial agreement affect taxes?
As a couple planning to get married, my partner and I are concerned about the tax implications of a prenuptial agreement. We are wondering if entering into a prenuptial agreement will have any impact on our tax obligations or if there are any specific tax considerations that we should be aware of. We are seeking advice from a lawyer who can provide us with guidance on this matter.
Briana C.
A prenuptial agreement does not in itself affect how taxing authorities will treat the spouses. But it can create promises between the spouses toward one another. For example, it may create a promise to file jointly, or specify that they are making no such promise. And it can create a promise by each spouse to pay the other back for any taxes the other pays on his or spouse's behalf. The decision whether to file jointly or separately does have tax implications with taxing authorities.
Family
Contract Agreement
Florida
Are emails legally binding?
My ex-husband and I discussed getting my son a cell phone, but he was very much against it. We came to an agreement that we would not get him one until the end of the school year, but my current husband bought him one. I am wondering if the email that was written is legally binding. I would like my son to still be able to use the phone, even though my exhusband is still against it, but wanted to make sure the agreement that was made wasn't legally binding.
Ayelet F.
Early in law school we learned that any bargain for consideration can be legally binding, meaning anything even written on a cocktail napkin can be binding if it contains the elements necessary to deem it a contract. Although I am answering this as a hypothetical and not as your attorney it is very possible for an agreement to be deemed legally binding when done via email if it can meet the threshold of being a contract. The basic elements for a contract or legally binding agreement are offer and acceptance, adequate consideration, capacity and legality of the contract. If an email contains all those elements it can be an agreement that was made through the course of the communication. I would certainly recommend speaking with your divorce attorney or a family law attorney licensed in your state if you are concerned about any possible liability. *The answer above does not constitute legal advice, nor create an attorney-client relationship.*
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
