Mallory Kindsfather is our Associate Attorney. Having been through Divorce herself, she knows how much the process impacts every facet of your life. Her key advice? ” Make sure you hire an attorney and listen to what they say. It’s so easy to make decisions based on emotion that you will not be happy with later.” She wishes she could tell her younger self to have confidence and trust your gut no matter what. People will try and break down your strength. Don’t let them. When Mallory is not at the office, she loves to garden, ride horses, play roller derby, and snuggle with her dog.

She also has found a new love for pottery and jewelry making.
Divorce is one of the biggest financial and emotional investments of your life. Don’t be afraid to ask tough questions, and hire the right lawyer that will help you through this process.
