Knowledge Is Power: Tammy Saltzman Is Passionate About Educating Clients In Family Law
Now in her 20th year in family law, Tammy Saltzman often takes on the role of counselor, mediator and therapist.
Using personal experience from her childhood and adult life, she helps to diffuse emotional situations for divorce clients and always advocates for kids. A self-described holistic attorney, Saltzman firmly believes in empowering clients with knowledge about the law.
“Not everyone needs a ‘shark,’ and not every divorce needs to cost $30,000,” Saltzman says. “Is your attorney someone who believes in mediation or litigates every little thing in court?”
Only clients who are armed with every possible decision can decide the best route to take, she says.
“Instead of an attorney leading you blindly through the legal process, it’s much better for a person to have knowledge of the rules that regulate family law and divorce in the state of Florida,” she says. “The No. 1 thing is to find the right attorney that fits with your personality.”
Saltzman understands the emotional toll that divorce takes on a couple and children and often ends sessions with a hug. She offers clients the option of mediation rather than a long, expensive fight in court.
“A lot of times, the only ones who win in courts are lawyers,” Saltzman says.
She teaches a workshop on the second Saturday of every month in Boca Raton about Florida family law. The sessions are open to anyone and cost $25 per person for the three-and-a-half-hour workshop. More information can be found at secondsaturdaybocaraton.com.
Attendees can schedule a free 30-minute consultation with Saltzman and other experts, including an accountant, a therapist and a financial planner. There is even a Realtor on the team.
“The more knowledge you have in Florida family law statutes, the less anxiety you have because you can save money and hopefully still get along with your spouse, especially if there are children,” Saltzman says. “I think of myself as a holistic attorney, and I love educating clients. I love the ability to improve the lives of people going through a divorce. What keeps me going is my passion for children, and I get the opportunity to heal families every day.”
