Our Mission
“With integrity and compassion,
we help people start over.“
Each of our attorneys has chosen this field
because they want to make a difference in a personal and real way. We care about our clients
and we love what we do!
Why Our Work Is Meaningful
When you’re hired by a client as a family law attorney, the person sitting across the table from you is entrusting you with the most important things in their life. Their family, their children, and their personal finances. I find it incredibly rewarding for an individual to put that trust in me and I strive every day to make sure that I’m doing the best possible job that I can for my clients.

We offer structured training and mentorship programs. It is our goal to provide paths to career advancement and to promote from within. We are passionate about assisting our employees with achieving their career goals.
How MFL Supported My Career Growth
I began my career with Modern Family Law as an intake specialist. When I expressed interest in possibly pursuing a career as a paralegal I received the full support of MFL leadership. They gave me the opportunity to speak with and shadow current paralegals to ensure this was the career path I wanted to take. They allowed me to be flexible with work to accommodate my school schedule and provided me with the resources necessary to succeed. I am so grateful to MFL for helping my professional and personal development.

Advancing My Career & Rewarding Benefits
Modern Family Law’s structured training allowed me to expand my legal abilities. Through the mentorship program, I was able to gain invaluable experience and learn directly from senior attorneys. I refined my skills as an attorney and MFL’s leadership took notice promoting me to a senior attorney. I was also fortunate to win an incredible trip for my family and myself to Disney World. My daughter still talks about it daily!

Flexible Billable Hours
A relaxed work-from-home environment, a free Employee Assistance Program, and flexible billable hours goals allow for more family time.
Modern Family Law has a monthly billable hours requirement of only 100 hours. This is much lower than the average family law firm’s requirements which typically start at 125 billable hours per month.
MFL's Work/Life Balance Allows Me To Enjoy My Passions
Working at Modern Family Law has provided me with an environment to succeed both professionally and personally. I love exploring all things outdoors. With MFL’s flexible billable hours requirements and work from home option, I am able to find a lot of time to pursue my hobbies. This year alone I have had time to train for a marathon, go mountain climbing, and take up kayaking. This has left me feeling much less stressed and able to focus on all of my priorities.
