Introducing Encino Law: Legal Support Rooted in Strength and Simplicity
I am proud to introduce you to Encino Law, a modern law firm built for women entrepreneurs who want to grow bold, legally sound businesses without the overwhelm.
After years of legal training, mentorship, and listening closely to the needs of business owners, I founded Encino Law to offer something different: legal services that are approachable, practical, and deeply values-driven. Think of us as your legal partner, here to help you build with confidence, not fear.
Why I Started Encino Law
Women are building incredible things - restaurants, wellness brands, creative studios, consultancies, and yet the legal industry hasn’t always kept pace with what we need. I saw so many brilliant founders held back by confusion, cost, or lack of access to lawyers who get it.
That’s why I created a law firm with your realities in mind. Whether you're just starting out, growing your team, or scaling into new opportunities, Encino Law is here to offer proactive legal guidance that meets you where you are.
What Sets Us Apart
Here’s what makes Encino Law different from your average law firm:

We believe legal support shouldn’t feel intimidating. We explain your options clearly, answer your questions without judgment, and help you feel at home in your own business.
Built for Women Entrepreneurs
We understand the unique challenges women founders face, because we’re walking that path too. We center your priorities, your time, and your vision in every step of the process.
Transparent, Flat-Fee Pricing
No surprise invoices or billable hours here. We offer flat-rate a la carte services and legal packages so you can budget with clarity and ease.
Purpose-Aligned Legal Strategy
We don’t just fill out forms, we help you align your legal foundation with your business goals, values, and growth plans.
Bilingual Support (English & Spanish)
