Top Rated Family Law Attorney in Raleigh, NC


After practicing law for 10 years, Andrea Bosquez-Porter started her own firm in 2020. Her goal was to open a practice that focused on compassion and service. She is a Board Certified Family Law Specialist (2015 to Present), making her one of the 1.1% of lawyers in North Carolina to hold this certification.

If it feels like your world is falling apart, Andrea can be trusted to protect your and your family's best interests. Her experience working with victims of domestic violence informs how she works with her clients. As a mother of two herself, she understands how challenging situations can affect families and require her involvement. That’s why she became a certified Family Financial Settlement Mediator, as well as a certified Parenting Coordinator.

It is important to her to provide her clients with the highest-quality legal services possible, in English or Spanish. This includes educating her peers - Andrea frequently speaks at conferences and teaches continuing legal education courses on a range of family law topics for both attorneys and paralegals. She wants you to rest assured that she will do whatever it takes to move forward and keep your family safe. You deserve to resolve your situation, once and for all.

In addition to her legal practice, Andrea is actively involved in her community. A resident of Raleigh since 2010, Andrea makes it a priority to give back to the people around her. She has consistently volunteered for the North Carolina Bar Association 4All Service Day, even serving as a Site Coordinator. She has served on the Tenth Judicial District Grievance Committee and the North Carolina Administrative Office of the Court Custody Mediation Advisory Committee (2014 – Present).

You don’t need to wait for a court date to get the legal services you deserve. Andrea is prepared to help you navigate the complexities of family law and the court system. Call our office at (919)-834-3699 or email info@bporterlaw.com to schedule a consultation.

I had the privilege of working with Andrea Bosquez-Porter as my mediator during my divorce, and she was absolutely phenomenal. From start to finish, Andrea was both kind and direct—striking the perfect balance between empathy and professionalism. It was clear throughout the process that she genuinely had both parties’ best interests in mind, which made a difficult situation feel manageable and fair.

I can’t recommend Andrea highly enough—she is a skilled, fair, and truly caring professional. - Michelle
