Attorney at Law - (at The McHugh Law Firm, A Professional Corporation)
Undergraduate: University of Virginia, BS Architecture; Graduate: North Carolina State University, Masters of Architecture; Law School: University of Virginia (JD awarded in 1987); Bar Credentials: Virginia State Bar (Admission 1987) Bar license number #27830, District of Columbia Bar (Admission 1988)
Coming from the LGBTQ community, I have spent the last 30 years assisting clients from non-traditional families in the areas of estate planning, property, and family law. I am a leader in the DC Metro area in Collaborative Practice, a non-litigation alternative to court based litigation which often includes judges and attorneys who are hostile to our non-traditional families. A lot of my work over the years has been in the realm of helping non-traditional families create legal documents that support and strengthen the bonds between them, including through pre-nups, co-ownership, and parenting agreements.
I generally charge at my hourly rate of $350 for services provided. Because I have an obligation to my family as well as to my clients, I generally do not offer sliding scale rates, however, in a compelling case with reduced resources, I may consider a reduced rate.
One point: As a general rule, non-traditional families, especially those where there are children, should avoid litigation, because our family relationships are not recognized and may be used in a negative manner against us. Having litigated in the past, I no longer do it because of the toll it takes on me and my clients. However, if litigation is necessary, I will make a referral to my colleague, who is also from the LGBTQ community, and has a long record of working with non-traditional families.

I have a JD from Gonzaga University School of Law, a BA from Portland State University, and I have been licensed to practice law in the State of Washington since 2010. My license # is WSBA 42506.
After 10 years of indigent defense, I opened my own trauma-informed law firm to provide services in estate planning, small business (formation and contracting), and trauma-informed HR consulting. I specifically want to serve non-traditional families (poly and non-married partners) in the area of estate planning and contracting. Estate planning is one of the best tools to ensure protection for non-married partners, not only in terms of assets but legal access (POA’s). I offer a poly specific consultation for polycules to discuss options for resource sharing and protection. While we keep working on changing laws to afford non-married partners the same rights as married couples, we have to get creative with our current legal tools to do what we can to protect the rights of non-married partners beyond the typically fraudulent concept of the “family llc.” I currently practice in Washington only. My poly-specific consultation and simple estate planning (will + POA + medical directive) are offered as flat-rate services at reasonable prices. If my rates are unaffordable for any specific person or group, I encourage communication with me to see if we can work something out. I believe in my services and I strive to be accessible to all.
