About Us at Selis Law Firm

Judi has over thirty years’ experience in the legal industry. Prior to moving to Florida, she had her own law practice in upstate New York. She is a retired New York attorney.

She relocated to Florida due to her mother’s health. Rather than practice as an attorney, she has progressed with her paralegal work.

Judi was born in Maine and moved to upstate New York when she was young. Throughout her life, she always enjoyed the legal industry and began working for an attorney in 1985. Her work was primarily in real estate and small criminal matters.

When Judi started her own family, she worked for a matrimonial attorney who encouraged her to get her law degree. So, in 1995 she embarked on her legal education by first obtaining her undergraduate degree at Syracuse University. Judi graduated at the top of her class.

She then applied and was accepted to Syracuse University College of Law. In Judi’s law school years, she received the Pro Bono Service Award as the only Law Student in New York State to receive the honor for that year.

Upon graduating from law school and passing the New York State Bar, she opened her own law practice in matrimonial law.

She joined the Selis Law Firm team in 2019 and enjoys the camaraderie, teamwork and dedication she feels from every one of her peers and employer. Judi’s deep-seeded belief and motto is “my handshake is my word” and she has found this same conviction within the Selis Law Firm.
