“Cassandra helped me through one of the most difficult times in my life that I was going into completely blind. Not only did she take care of things that I would have not been able to do myself, she guided me through every step so that I knew exactly what was going on. I am forever grateful to Cassandra and what she did for my family.”

Galowitz • Olson Law, PLLC Family Law Attorney
Cassandra practices solely in the area of family law throughout Minnesota and Wisconsin. She strives to represent her clients with a mixture of respect for their case and zealous advocacy to assist them in reaching their goals. She aims to ensure future success for her clients rather than leaving them in a more toxic environment. Her practice extends from Minnesota to Wisconsin and includes divorce, custody, post-decree matters, child support, child protection matters, stepparent/second parent adoptions, paternity, antenuptial agreements, postnuptial agreements, and spousal maintenance matters. While 90% of family law cases settle outside of trial, Cassandra has prevailed at trial for her clients in both Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Cassandra received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Hamline University in Saint Paul, Minnesota and her Juris Doctor from William Mitchell College of Law. She was involved in the Child Protection Clinic at William Mitchell College of Law, representing parents going through Child in Need of Protection (CHIPS) actions in Hennepin and Ramsey County. Cassandra is also a Qualified Rule 114 Neutral. Throughout her education, Cassandra volunteered and worked for domestic abuse shelters, helping women and children navigate through the most difficult time in their lives. Prior to becoming a lawyer, Cassandra had extensive law firm experience, working as both a paralegal and law clerk. This experience allows her to have knowledge in all aspects of representing a client from start to finish. It is from all these experiences that Cassandra holds to the standard that cases should be treated on an individual level.
Cassandra lives in Hudson Wisconsin with her family.

“When I made the decision of divorce, my main concern was the safety of my child and our financial security. Cassandra was recommended to me by my close friend, and upon first meeting her, I knew I had found the lawyer I needed. She is kind, understanding, prompt in her responses, and puts the needs of her clients first. I am very thankful that I had Cassandra helping me through the divorce process and thankful for her help afterwards with other questions. Thank you!”
