Personal Introduction

I am licensed to practice law in Florida (since 2021) and in Brazil (since 1995). With a solid career spanning three decades and two countries, I offer a distinctive perspective and a client-focused approach with emphasis in Estate Planning and Business Transactions. Beyond my primary areas of practice, I am a dedicated advocate for children in Family Law matters. Additionally, I am an Adjunct Professor at Broward College for the Paralegal Studies program and Mom to a 19-year-old young man and a 13-year-old young lady. I don't get paid enough for these two jobs but they fulfill me with satisfaction and pride! I speak English, Portuguese, and Spanish.
