Susan Ashcraft began her legal career practicing complex litigation, including securities litigation, with several large, prestigious San Francisco law firms.  This gave her strong litigation skills, but she did not find satisfaction in representing large corporations.  After taking time off while her children were young, she returned to the practice of law in 2011, choosing exclusively to represent individuals in family law.  She finds it immensely satisfying to assist clients with their family law issues. 

Ms. Ashcraft graduated magna cum laude from U.C. Hastings College of Law, and has a B.A. in English from U.C. Berkeley.  She is member of the Family Law Sections of the State Bar, the Bar Association of San Francisco and the San Mateo County Bar Association.
