Anne Bonfiglio

Anne Bonfiglio is a licensed California attorney with a focused practice in family law. A native New Yorker, she graduated magna cum laude from New York University and earned her law degree from NYU School of Law. After her admission to the California Bar, Anne relocated to the Bay Area, where she began her legal career as a commercial litigator in Palo Alto. Her early practice included representing individuals, Fortune 500 companies, and national trade associations, providing her with a broad and nuanced understanding of how people and institutions navigate conflict.

Anne later stepped away from active litigation to raise her children and became deeply engaged in community leadership and advocacy. She founded the Mid-Peninsula Chapter of FEMALE, a national organization supporting women, served on its Board of Directors, and ultimately became its National Co-Director. Through this work—now continued under the organization’s name, Mothers & More—Anne frequently spoke on the transition from full-time professional work to full-time caregiving, gaining valuable insight into the dynamics of working mothers, two-career households, parenting, and relationships. These experiences naturally evolved into a successful life-coaching practice serving clients throughout the Bay Area.

In 2018, Anne returned to the practice of law, dedicating her work exclusively to family law. She believes that compassionate, experienced, and creative representation can make a meaningful difference for clients navigating dissolution, custody, and domestic violence matters. While settlement is always a priority due to its efficiency and cost-effectiveness, Anne is a seasoned trial attorney who is fully prepared to advocate forcefully when litigation is necessary. She places a strong emphasis on client education, believing that informed clients are best equipped to make decisions that will shape their lives well into the future.

Clients value Anne for her steady guidance, clear communication, and unwavering commitment to helping them move through family law matters with confidence and clarity. Outside the office, Anne enjoys spending time with her family, indulging her love of New York City, traveling, attending theater, reading, and cooking—in that order.
