About Daria Nikitina, Litigation Attorney
Daria Nikitina is a family law attorney who brings both personal experience and professional dedication to her practice. Since her admission to the D.C. Bar in 2021 and the Maryland Bar shortly thereafter, she has exclusively practiced family law, skillfully handling complex matters with empathy and resolve. She is especially proud of advocating for a grandmother who secured parenting time despite allegations of abuse against the child’s father.
“I understand the emotional challenges my clients face because I’ve been through them myself. That perspective ensures I bring empathy, patience, and strong advocacy to every case.”
