Ms Weinberger experienced divorce firsthand when she witnessed the end of her parents’ marriage as a child. She decided to study law and was awarded a Juris Doctorate in 1997 from Suffolk University Law School. She has dedicated her practice exclusively to the fields of family and matrimonial law since her graduation. Fast forward to 2008, when she decided to start her own family law practice, and decided that her firm would be different.
