Before joining Douglas Law Firm, Julia practiced insurance defense, primarily handling construction defect matters, before transitioning into Family Law. Her experience strengthened her negotiation and litigation skills, allowing her to approach challenging situations with both empathy and a clear understanding of her clients’ legal needs.

Julia’s inspiration to pursue a legal career began with her grandmother, Julia, for whom she was named. Recognizing her granddaughter’s natural ability to reason through challenges and find practical solutions, her grandmother encouraged her to pursue a career in law.
Fluent in Spanish, Julia is proud to assist both English- and Spanish-speaking clients.
