Beyond the Law
Roxanne took a two-year leave of absence from the firm to be with her family to live in the U.A.E. where her husband, a now retired Marine, was deployed. During that time she added to her family and now has two rambunctious toddlers to keep her busy when not at the office. She and her family are happy to be back in the Tysons area and enjoy the actual change of seasons!
