In 2019,   she began another term as the Chair of the San Diego County Regional Standing Committee.

Andrew Rosenberry has nearly thirty years of experience in complex civil and family law litigation and  has served as a Judge Pro Tem for the San Diego Superior Court, Family Law Division. He attended Gettysburg College and Penn State University and earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in political science prior to earning his law degree from California Western School of Law. He has been practicing family law at Antonyan Miranda since 2017 and is the winner of the firm’s 2021 Golden Sledgehammer Award,  presented annually to an attorney of Antonyan Miranda who has proven their presence in court, representing AM’s key values of strength and tenacity.

Carlos Tavares, who serves as Antonyan Miranda’s Managing Attorney, has been practicing family law for nearly two decades. He is particularly skilled at working on complex and high-net-worth matters such as financial analysis and tracing, custody and visitation disputes, contempt and post-judgment enforcement, and domestic violence restraining orders. Tavares also has significant experience working  with military families and has an extensive understanding of issues impacting military families including  pensions, survivor benefit plans, and the Lautenberg Act. He has served a guest lecturer at the Marine Corps Installations West Legal Assistance Conference and is a regular guest instructor for the Marine  Corps Martial Arts Program and other military units. Tavares is the recipient of the firm’s 2019 Golden Sledgehammer Award.

Sara Yunus is the Senior Supervising Attorney for the AM EZ division of Antonyan Miranda., which offers  a variety of family law services at a lower price point. She has successfully litigated a broad range of family law matters, from child custody and domestic violence restraining orders to complex asset division and business valuation. In 2019, Yunus garnered international media recognition for her role in  successfully obtaining a $150,000 judgment of past-due child support for her 73-year-old client, following 50 years of non-payment. Yunus earned an undergraduate degree in Political Science from California State University, Fullerton where she served as the communications intern for the National Women’s Political Caucus in Washington, D.C. She earned her Juris Doctor from Whittier Law School, where she received a dean’s academic scholarship. Yunus was the first Golden Sledgehammer Award winner. “Naghmeh, Andrew, Carlos, and Sara are exceptional attorneys, who are aggressive and effective advocates for their clients,” said Timothy Miranda, Antonyan Miranda Co-Founder. “I know I speak for Ilona Antonyan as well when I say we are very proud and excited to have each attorney as our partner.” Antonyan Miranda was formed in 2015 when Ilona Antonyan and Timothy Miranda, both Certified Family Law Specialists, merged their individual practices. The firm has since grown to become one of California’s largest family law firms.
