December 2023 marked my 30th year since graduation from law school. The life of an attorney is challenging, but, in my opinion, it is far more challenging for family lawyers. Our days are filled with negativity - breakdown of families, neglect and abuse of children, death of family members, disabled or incapacitated family members, financial losses, and just a whole lot of DRAMA.
Every now and then I get overwhelmed and consider changing fields or careers altogether. It's during those moments that a former, current, or potential client will call me and remind me why God placed me here.
It has been a hectic week and "one of those days", but when I tell you my clients have unknowingly STEPPED UP, that is an understatement. Between the texts and phone calls this morning alone, I have been smiling, lmao, and feeling refreshed!
God assigned me to family law for a reason. Despite the emotional baggage, I am embracing what God has destined, today and every day. So, to ALL of my amazing clients who have trusted me to handle their legal needs over the past 30 years, today I sow into you what you have sowed into me - LOVE, TRUST, FAITH, CONFIDENCE, PATIENCE, STEADFASTNESS, AND A DEEPER ACCEPTANCE OF WHAT GOD HAS DESTINED. I appreciate you greatly!
