There is officially a new law firm in Rhode Island.
"A long-standing legal legacy continues with the establishment of Caprio Law, a family law-focused practice serving Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Led by attorneys Sophia J. Caprio and Andrea T. Dunbar, the firm emphasizes strategic advocacy and a measured, human approach to family law representation," said the firm in its announcement of its opening.
The firm claims it is "built on the principle that family law should never feel transactional, Caprio Law combines sophisticated legal strategy with a deeply human approach to advocacy. The firm specializes in all areas of family law, including divorce, child custody and parenting time, child and spousal support, prenuptial agreements, post-divorce modifications, and contempt and enforcement proceedings."
“People don’t seek out a family law attorney when life is simple,” said Dunbar. “They come to us when they are overwhelmed, uncertain, or standing at a crossroads. Caprio Law meets clients in those moments with clarity, honesty, and steady guidance.”
About Firm
Sophia and Andrea previously worked together at an esteemed Boston law firm, where the two developed a close professional partnership. That partnership now "forms the foundation of a family law-focused practice grounded in collaboration, mutual respect, and a shared vision for supporting families through difficult transitions."
Caprio Law says it is also "deeply personal in its origins."
Sophia is a third-generation attorney, inspired by the legacy of her grandfather, the late Chief Judge Frank Caprio.
"Known for his compassion, fairness, and respect for every person who appeared before him, Judge Caprio’s approach to the law left a lasting impression on Sophia and continues to shape the values of her practice today," according to the attorneys.
“Watching my grandfather treat every person with dignity and empathy, regardless of their circumstances, had a profound impact on how I understand the role of an attorney,” said Caprio. “That sense of humanity and compassion is something I strive to carry forward in my own practice.”
“I’ve seen how profoundly family law outcomes can shape a person’s future — especially for children,” said Dunbar. “What drives me is the opportunity to provide clarity and stability when families are navigating some of their most vulnerable moments.”
“We want clients to feel informed, prepared, and supported at every step,” said Caprio. “Even when the process is difficult, understanding what’s happening and why can make an enormous difference.”
