“Our mission of empowerment extends beyond our clients and is an important foundation of how we interact with our community,” Breddan said.
“We understand that, very often, families in need of family law representation have other compounding needs that can extend beyond our office, and that there are many in our community who require additional support from nonprofit organizations. For years we have developed direct support and engaged members of our community who may otherwise not have access to essential family law information regarding divorce, custody and domestic violence — and we have partnered with nonprofit agencies to provide educational workshops and outreach.
Additionally, we have provided direct support to groups that serve single parents and domestic violence survivors, as well as food and housing for insecure individuals. We also feel it is important to give back to the next generation of leaders and have participated in scholarship events for law school students as well as high school students in Santa Clarita through the annual Santa Clarita Valley Bar Association’s high school speech competition and Judge’s Night. We are passionate about engaging with our community in Santa Clarita and beyond.”
