Professional Experience
After graduating law school, Melissa worked for a general practitioner where she was exposed to several areas of the law, including family law. In 2015, Melissa decided she wanted to practice family law exclusively and had the opportunity to work for a prominent family law attorney in the Philadelphia region. She continued to hone her family law skills at a law firm in Phoenixville before joining Potts, Shoemaker and Grossman in 2022.
As both an advocate and advisor for her clients, she assists them in achieving their goals and objectives through strategic planning and skilled negotiation. She recognizes that each client’s situation is unique and tailors her approach and strategy accordingly. Effective legal representation is not one sizes fits all, and Melissa is dedicated to providing trusted and thoughtful guidance through highly emotional and personal family and financial issues.
Personal Background
A lifelong resident of Chester County, Melissa lives in Phoenixville with her husband, Matt and two daughters, Vivian and Georgia. Their two dogs, Lady and Bama, round out their pack.
