About Odalys Sanchez

Odalys Sanchez Elkins grew up drawn to public affairs and formal study. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Florida Atlantic University in 2001 and completed a Juris Doctor at Nova Southeastern University in 2003. Those degrees set the groundwork for a career that moved from early legal work into courtroom practice.

Her name appears on records from an earlier role at Laurence Leavy & Associates in 1993. The record does not specify her title, but it marks an early entry into the legal field that preceded her law school years. After completing her J.D., she built on that foundation and established herself in the Florida legal community.

Sanchez Elkins is admitted to practice in Florida and before the Federal Circuit. She maintains professional membership in a bar or legal association that she joined in 2007 and continues to hold. Those connections have kept her engaged with peers and developments in family law practice across the state.

In 2007 she opened Sanchez Elkins Law, P.A., operating as a family law trial lawyer and the firm’s owner. Over the years she has handled contested family law matters and courtroom proceedings. Her practice work has centered on the kinds of disputes that typically arise in family law—divorce, custody matters, support issues and related hearings. She is often in court, preparing witnesses and motions and arguing evidentiary questions.

Colleagues describe her as methodical in trial preparation. She is known for attention to procedural details and for structuring cases to present facts clearly in court. Clients who come to her firm tend to be involved in contested proceedings that require litigation experience rather than only negotiated settlements.

She balances litigation with the administrative demands of running a small firm. Sanchez Elkins Law, P.A. provides representation at trial while also serving clients through pretrial motions, temporary hearings and post-judgment matters. The office maintains a local presence in Florida and handles filings and appearances in state and federal forums as appropriate.

Today she continues to practice at Sanchez Elkins Law, P.A., carrying a caseload of family law litigation matters. She currently practices family law litigation at Sanchez Elkins Law, P.A.
