About Andrea

Andrea Bosquez-Porter is a North Carolina family law attorney whose practice blends courtroom experience and alternative dispute resolution. She arrived at law after a sustained period in graduate study and undergraduate work that emphasized history and social inquiry. Her academic path began with a Bachelor of Arts in History from Vassar College in 1998, continued with a Master of Arts from Brandeis University in 2003, and culminated in a J.D. from the University of Wisconsin Law School in 2009.

After law school, Bosquez-Porter established herself in the state where she now practices. She is admitted to practice in North Carolina. Over the years she has built credentials beyond the bar. The North Carolina State Bar of Legal Specialization has recognized her as a Board Certified Specialist in Family Law. She is also a Certified Family Financial Mediator through the North Carolina Dispute Resolution Commission and serves as a Parenting Coordinator certified by the North Carolina courts. Those certifications signal a practice that extends beyond litigation into case management, financial settlement work, and post-judgment coordination.

Her training in mediation and financial matters often appears in how cases are handled. Where custody and parenting time are disputed, she draws on the Parenting Coordinator credential to work through high-conflict issues between parents. When asset division and support calculations become technical, the family financial mediator role allows her to translate numbers into workable settlement options. Colleagues and opposing counsel typically encounter a lawyer who moves between negotiation and court effectively, preferring tools that resolve disputes while preserving clients’ long-term interests.

Bosquez-Porter’s academic background informs her approach. A history degree followed by graduate study gave her a foundation in research and narrative, skills that carry into case preparation and client counseling. Her law school training added the procedural and doctrinal toolkit necessary for family law litigation and appellate work. She has combined those elements into a practice model that attends to both legal detail and family dynamics.

She practices from Bosquez Porter Family Law. The office handles divorce, custody, support, property division, mediation, and parenting coordination. Clients seeking a lawyer who employs family law certification, financial mediation, and parenting coordination as part of their toolkit will find those services at her firm.

She currently practices at Bosquez Porter Family Law, concentrating on family law and related dispute resolution matters.
