Nancy AdkinsI am passionately committed to working with families in distress, and work very hard to quickly achieve the best possible results in each case. I recognize that it can be quite difficult for people to get along, and believe that it is better to be FROM a broken home, than to be IN one.
Since I have been in private practice, my firm has focused exclusively on family matters. I’ve never dabbled in anything else because of how strongly I feel about the sanctity of the family. I love being a part of trying to help other families through very difficult and emotional situations. If I can make a difference to better a child’s life, then I have done my work.Before I opened my private practice, I served as an Assistant Attorney General for the State of Florida in the Child Support Enforcement Division. I represented the Department of Revenue on issues of paternity and child support, whether establishment, modification or enforcement, intrastate and interstate. There were also a few international cases in my division. I handled approximately 6,000 files at any given time, and had my hands on at least 200 case files a week. I spent most of my time in court, and it was rare for me to be in the office.
I am currently a member in the Florida Bar, and the Broward Bar Association, with past membership in the Florida Trial Lawyers Association.I received my law degree from St. Thomas University School of Law. My undergraduate work was completed at the University of Miami, with a double major in Political Science and Broadcast Journalism.
My husband and I raise Border Collies – sheep dogs. I love the beach, movies, music, and football. I also enjoy traveling, both domestic and internationally since 1994. I also believe there is nothing better in this world than sitting at a table with friends and family, having good food, good conversations and LOTS of laughs!
