Attorney | Pacific Northwest Family Law
When Frina Faith Redoloza was in college, one of her closest friends was caught in a bitter custody dispute involving her younger sister. For nearly two years, accusations damaged relationships, and the conflict spread beyond the courtroom.
Frina listened and offered support, but she felt helpless. She wanted to understand the law and acquire the skills to help people facing problems that sympathy alone could not solve.
That experience helped shape her decision to become an attorney.
Years later, Frina has first-chaired approximately 300 bench trials, examined witnesses, presented evidence, and argued cases involving difficult legal and personal disputes. Today, she brings that experience to families facing divorce, parenting disputes, and other challenges at Pacific Northwest Family Law.
Understanding What Families Are Going Through
A first-generation Filipino American, Frina grew up moving between Texas, Nevada, Maryland, California, and the Philippines because of her mother’s work.
Although her family often lived far from extended relatives, home remained a place of safety and belonging. As she grew older, she discovered that not everyone enjoyed that security. Friends experienced divorce, abuse, and family instability.
During law school, Frina worked with the Crimes Against Children Division of the McLennan County Criminal District Attorney’s Office in Texas. The experience reinforced something she had already begun to understand: what may be another case on an attorney’s calendar is someone else’s life.
After graduating from Baylor Law School, she built a litigation practice involving family law, probate, civil litigation, and criminal matters. At one Texas firm, she managed more than 100 active cases while developing extensive courtroom experience.
She learned to prepare witnesses, organize evidence, and respond when litigation took an unexpected turn. She also learned that knowing how to fight does not mean every disagreement deserves a battle.
Frina begins by understanding what matters to her client. She explains the available options, risks, and likely obstacles. And when expectations are unrealistic, she believes it is her responsibility to say so.
A Mother’s Second Chance
One case has stayed with Frina because it demonstrated how much a person’s circumstances can change.
She represented a mother who had experienced serious personal difficulties and lost primary custody of her daughter.
Over the following decade, the woman rebuilt her life, established stability, and demonstrated her ability to provide a different future for her family.
Years later, when her daughter faced difficult circumstances, the mother was ready to act. Frina helped her pursue custody and an opportunity to rebuild their relationship.
What impressed Frina most was the woman’s perseverance. Her past had not erased her capacity to change, take responsibility, and become a source of stability for her child.
Frina often reminds herself, “This too shall pass.”
That doesn’t mean circumstances will improve without effort. The mother had spent years making difficult changes. Frina’s role was to help her pursue the legal opportunity those efforts had made possible.
For parents facing custody disputes, Frina believes children deserve particular care. They should know that adult disagreements are not their fault, that resolving those problems is not their responsibility, and that they can love the important people in their lives without being forced to take sides.
Her approach to clients reflects a similar respect for personal independence.
As Frina explains:
“The most important thing I can give a client is the information and support they need to maintain agency over decisions that will affect their lives and families long after their case is over.”
Making a Home in the Tri-Cities
Frina joined Pacific Northwest Family Law in June 2026. She is making her home in the Tri-Cities, which she came to know through visits to her brother in Richland.
Outside work, she enjoys literature, art, faith, community service, science fiction, and horror. She also enjoys drawing, needle-felting, and exploring the Pacific Northwest.
She has a particular fascination with aquatic life. At one point, she maintained four freshwater aquariums, including a 60-gallon tank. Her household includes a cat and an axolotl, an aquatic salamander known for retaining its youthful appearance.
For someone who moved frequently while growing up, family and friendships remain important sources of belonging.
