Austin+Koffron : Family Law

Austin+Koffron was originally established by Saraphoena (Austin) Koffron and Mike Koffron before they were married, when they were fresh out of law school. They took a hiatus to gain experience through mentorship in more established firms, and then resumed their practice in 2016. Their experience has largely focused on litigating high conflict family law matters and promoting the fair application of laws through appellate advocacy. However, they also serve as mediators on both a court-appointed and private-retention basis for individuals and families who seek to resolve their conflicts privately.
