“I Have Rights” – Yolanda’s Story by Cristen Gleeson

Family Law
June 12, 2015
Loading...
Cristen L. Gleeson, K.C.

 

“The hardest thing about splitting up was that I didn’t have a job. I took care of the kids, the house, and the yard. You feel so low and you have two kids that you want the best for.”

Yolanda’s story echoes the hearts of many single mothers struggling to make a living post-separation. Once Yolanda found Cristen Gleeson, she felt validated and cared for. With Baker Newby LLP in her corner, she got the support she needed and was able to carry on stronger than before.

If this is your story, you can find strength in Baker Newby as well. Contact our Family Law Team.
