Indigenous history is American history, but too much of it has been left out, simplified, or told without the right voices.​

On Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we recognize the histories, cultures, and contributions of Native peoples. ​

This is not only about the past. Indigenous communities are here today, preserving their traditions and helping shape the places we all call home.

A law firm as a media machine means creating conversations that serve different audiences with a clear purpose.

At Modern Family Law, our two-podcast strategy puts that idea into practice. The Family Brief offers families accessible conversations about family law and life’s transitions. The War Room: Disrupted gives legal professionals a space to explore technology, innovation, and how legal services can evolve.

Together, they connect the people navigating change with the ideas shaping the profession that serves them. It’s a strategy rooted in education, trust, and our mission to help families find a fresh start.

Family looks different for everyone. It can be the people you're born into, the family you build, or the people who show up when you need them most.​
​
​At Modern Family Law, we have the privilege of helping families through some of life's biggest changes. Every day, we're reminded that no two families are the same—and that every family deserves understanding, respect, and support.​
​
Today, we celebrate every family and the people who make us feel loved, supported, and connected.​

Take a moment to reach out to someone who matters to you and celebrate the relationships that make life richer.​

If you’ve been thinking about divorce but keep putting off talking to an attorney because you don’t know what you want, that’s okay. You don’t need all the answers, or a folder organized with all your information, to start asking questions.​

Begin with what you already know or can find out easily, like recent financial statements, retirement account information, insurance policies, and a rough list of your income and expenses. Even a little prep time can help make that first conversation feel less difficult.​
