Comprehensive Family Law, Divorce, and Certified Mediation

Family law issues can be emotionally exhausting and financially draining. Erin is an accomplished domestic relations mediator who helps families seek amicable, cost-effective resolutions through mediation. Her mediation practice is highly effective for couples wanting to maintain control over sensitive custody, support, and asset division decisions without a judge's intervention. However, in high-asset divorces or high-conflict child custody disputes where compromise is impossible, Erin utilizes her extensive trial experience to fight aggressively for your parental rights and financial interests. From child support calculations to prenuptial agreements, she delivers complete, tailored family law support.

Strategic Employment Law and Employee Protection

No employee should have to endure harassment, discrimination, or wage theft in the workplace. Erin is a dedicated advocate for employee rights, assisting workers who have faced workplace discrimination, wrongful termination, or sexual harassment. She guides clients through the complex process of filing claims with the EEOC and represents employees in federal court litigation. If you need a lawyer urgently because you were wrongfully fired, retaliated against for whistleblowing, or denied overtime pay, Erin provides the strategic, thorough counsel needed to take on major corporations and secure fair recovery.

Compassionate Personal Injury, Disability, and SSDI Support

Recovering from a severe accident or managing a long-term disability is a heavy burden. Erin represents plaintiffs in personal injury cases, helping them hold negligent parties accountable after auto accidents and workplace injuries. Additionally, she is a trusted specialist in Social Security Disability and SSI appeals, as well as short-term and long-term private disability claims.
