Shanthi

Shanthi Hu

Associate Attorney

Shanthi Hu is an Associate Attorney who guides clients through every stage of their family law case, from initial filing through resolution—whether that means settlement or litigation. She meets regularly with both prospective and current clients, keeping them informed at each step and helping them understand their options along the way.

Shanthi was drawn to family law because it allows her to make a real difference during some of life’s most difficult transitions. She finds particular satisfaction in helping clients move from feeling overwhelmed and uncertain to feeling informed, confident, and hopeful about the path ahead. She believes an informed client is an empowered client, and she takes care to explain the legal process clearly, set realistic expectations, and walk clients through not just their options, but the reasoning behind her recommended strategy.

While she’s prepared to advocate aggressively when a case calls for it, Shanthi doesn’t see conflict as the goal. She tailors her approach to each client’s unique circumstances—recognizing that litigation is the right fit for some, while mediation or settlement better serves others—always aiming to protect what matters most to her clients while minimizing unnecessary strain along the way.

Shanthi holds a certificate in Divorce Mediation from Northwestern University, having completed their 40-Hour Divorce Mediation Skills Training, and has also completed a 40-Hour Domestic Violence Training through A Safe Place.

Colleagues and clients alike describe Shanthi as empathetic, dependable, thoughtful, and calm under pressure. She’s known for taking the time to truly listen and for explaining complex legal matters in a way that helps clients feel more confident, not more confused. Among her colleagues, she’s valued as a collaborative, solutions-oriented team member who believes strong processes lead to better outcomes for clients.

Before clients begin working with her, Shanthi wants them to know this: she genuinely cares about finding solutions that fit their goals and their family, and she’ll always be honest and upfront—because she believes clients deserve clear, realistic guidance to make the best decisions for their future.

Outside the office, Shanthi cherishes time with her husband and two young children. She’s an avid traveler who has explored many countries internationally and now enjoys domestic trips with her family, with international adventures on the horizon as her kids get older. She and her husband also share a love of trying new restaurants and recipes—a tradition that began in New York City and has followed them through every city they’ve called home since.
