Renee Stasio

Renée L. Stasio is Senior Counsel at Fait & DiLima Family Law and brings decades of litigation experience to Maryland and District of Columbia family-law matters. Her practice covers complex custody and financial disputes, high-conflict cases, domestic violence, relocation, access refusal, and other difficult family issues. She works as a litigator, mediator, Best Interest Attorney or guardian ad litem, and parent coordinator depending on the needs of the matter.

Stasio earned a J.D., magna cum laude, from Boston College Law School and a B.A. from the University of Southern California. Her legal education and earlier intellectual property litigation work provide a strong foundation for case strategy, legal writing, and detailed factual analysis. That background is especially useful in family disputes involving extensive records, contested financial information, expert issues, or complicated custody facts that require disciplined preparation and clear presentation.

Stasio ran her own family-law firm for fifteen years before joining Fait & DiLima Family Law. Earlier in her career, she spent twelve years at major law firms as an intellectual property litigator. Her current approach emphasizes tailored strategy, clear explanations, and efficient resolution when negotiation can protect relationships. When settlement efforts fail, she brings substantial litigation experience to contested hearings and other complex family-law proceedings.

Renée L. Stasio has been recognized as a Maryland Super Lawyer and is known for work involving complex custody and financial issues. Her practice combines long litigation experience with mediation and family-focused problem solving. She helps clients understand legal options, weigh costs and benefits, and choose a strategy suited to their circumstances, whether the matter calls for negotiated resolution, structured dispute resolution, or forceful courtroom advocacy.
