With over a decade of experience in the legal field, Ms. Holdener is committed to supporting her clients through complex family law matters with both a firm hand and a compassionate approach.

A graduate of the University of California, Santa Barbara, Ms. Holdener earned a double major in Psychology and Law & Society, with an emphasis in Criminal Justice.

She also interned at the Placer County District Attorney’s Office and volunteered at the Victims of Crime Representation Clinic, expanding her understanding of the legal needs of individuals in crisis.

After passing the bar in 2009, Ms. Holdener began practicing general civil litigation, covering areas such as personal injury, premises liability, and real property disputes. However, her passion for helping individuals through life's emotional and difficult transitions led her to specialize exclusively in family law in 2014. Since then, she has dedicated her practice to divorce, child custody and support, spousal support, property division, guardianships, and more. She became a Certified Family Law Specialist in 2022.

Her firm is built on a foundation of trust, expertise, and a deep understanding of the complexities of family law. Ms. Holdener is passionate about providing clients with the support and guidance they need to move forward with confidence during some of life’s most emotionally charged times.
