Drake Law

Built on 30 Years of Experience

For over 30 years, founder Janet Whitehead helped families resolve disputes with compassion and common sense, guided by a deep understanding of how harmful court proceedings can be to the people involved. Today, our team of family lawyers carries that philosophy forward — bringing decades of their own experience to every file.

Through skillful mediation, our team is able to reduce stress, help people find solutions that meet their respective needs, and use their legal training and experience to guide people to a mutually acceptable resolution..
