East Palatka Family Law

Dedicated Family Law Representation for East Palatka Residents

---

East Palatka is an unincorporated community in Putnam County situated on the east bank of the St. Johns River, connected to Palatka by the Memorial Bridge and anchored along the SR-207 corridor. It is a community defined by its rural residential character, its proximity to the river, and the quiet independence of families who have chosen to live outside the city limits. When those families face divorce, custody disputes, or other family law challenges, they deserve an attorney who understands the stakes and will fight with everything she has.

Christine Leonard serves East Palatka families with the same intensity and personal commitment she brings to every case across Northeast Florida.

She handles each case with discretion, determination, and a relentless focus on protecting her client's interests.
