Hello, my name is Dominique Malia Tansley and I am the lead attorney at Ohana Legal. I started my own Family Law firm because I wanted to practice law on a more personal level and use my skills to directly help people resolve their legal problems.
I have 24 years of legal experience working in Hawaii, as a paralegal and as an lawyer. When you hire me, you will be hiring a lawyer who is experienced and dedicated. I will take the time to listen to your concerns and answer your questions. I will explain the process and legal issues to you in plain English and provide a straightforward and honest assessment of your case.
On a personal note, I was born in Hawaii and moved back here after college and attended law school in Honolulu. I left a well-paid position at a corporate law firm to practice law on a more personal level. When I am not at the office, I like to relax by working in my vegetable garden or reading a good book.
