Attorney Information
Overview
Annabelle Abel is a compassionate, experienced, and dedicated associate family law attorney with DM Cantor’s Family Law Practice. Annabelle was born in Franklin, Tennessee, but spent the majority of her childhood in Cave Creek, Arizona. From a very early age it was clear to Annabelle that the beautiful Arizona desert would be her permanent home.
Annabelle received her bachelor’s degree from the University of Arizona Honors College where she majored in Public Policy and Criminal Justice. While at the University of Arizona, Annabelle served as a campus tour guide, an Ambassador for the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences, and she held several leadership positions within her Greek organization.
After receiving her undergraduate degree, Annabelle attended Arizona State University’s Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law, where she received her Juris Doctor. While in law school, Annabelle was selected as a student mediator for the Lodestar Mediation Clinic, where she assisted the public by mediating a wide array of civil cases for the Justice Courts of Maricopa County. Additionally, Annabelle worked for a boutique family law firm where she initially became enamored with the practice of family law. After completing her first family law internship, Annabelle focused her third year of law school on classes and experiences that would serve her as an aspiring family law attorney. One such class was Community Property Law, where Annabelle obtained the CALI Excellence for the Future Award.
After law school, Annabelle passed the Arizona State Bar Examination and began her practice as a family law attorney. As a practicing family law attorney, Annabelle has litigated a wide variety of cases throughout the State of Arizona, including contested custody matters, relocations, complex dissolution cases, jurisdictional disputes, domestic violence issues, and annulments. While Annabelle enjoys tirelessly advocating for her clients in Court, Annabelle also understands the value of settlement and mediation and uses her experience as a Justice Court Mediator to assist her clients in reaching amicable settlement agreements when possible and beneficial.
Annabelle is intimately aware of the toll that family law matters take on her clients, both emotionally and financially. As such, Annabelle strives to provide each of her clients with the knowledge, confidence, and tools necessary to endure each case.
In her free time, Annabelle enjoys spending time with her partner and her rescue dog, Rhett. On the weekends, Annabelle enjoys cheering on the Arizona Wildcats, trying out new restaurants, and hosting dinner parties for her friends and family.
