ORLANDO, Fla. (January 28, 2015) — The N. Diane Holmes, P.A. Family Law Group is pleased to announce that founder N. Diane Holmes has joined an elite group of trial attorneys.

A graduate of the University of Florida’s Levin College of Law, Ms. Holmes also earned her Bachelor of Arts (with Honors) degree there. She was the first female lawyer in Central Florida to hold a Fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers designation.
