About New Leaf Family
New Leaf Family is a different kind of law firm—intentionally designed to elevate both the client and attorney experience. Since 2004, we have been building a model of Family Law that replaces conflict-centered representation with empowerment, clarity, and long-term vision.
Our clients come to us with personal conflicts that intersect with legal issues, not purely legal problems. We help them understand their goals, plan their path, and move confidently toward the future they want. Our work often extends before and after the legal process, incorporating a network of supportive professionals to meet the client’s full needs.
We are not in the business of fueling conflict or serving as “divorce brokers.” We are in the business of helping families make informed decisions that align with their values. And while we are fully prepared to litigate when necessary, our first commitment is always to resolution that supports a healthier future.
If you believe there is a better way to practice Family Law—and you want to be part of a firm leading that change—we would love to meet you.
