About Browde Law, P.C.

Meet Kristen

Kristen Prata Browde is an attorney based in Chappaqua, New York, who works to develop creative solutions to the problems facing individuals and corporations. “I try to bring a practical approach to the issues facing clients.” she says, “Particularly in divorce cases, emotions run high. Dealing with the emotions is important, but it’s every bit as important to remember the goal: getting through the divorce process with your dignity and your finances intact. If there are children involved, one has to be even more sensitive to the problems, and the creative solutions that are critical to helping a client through this very difficult time in their lives.”
