Raerani Reddy

Raerani Reddy is an attorney at DeLacey, Riebel & Shindell in San Francisco, California, whose practice is devoted exclusively to family law. She represents clients in matters involving divorce, custody, support and related disputes, combining careful legal analysis with a thoughtful, solutions-oriented approach. Known for her organization and attention to detail, she works to help clients navigate emotionally charged situations with clarity and confidence while keeping long-term outcomes in focus.

Prior to joining her current firm, Ms. Reddy practiced at a prominent firm, where she handled sophisticated commercial litigation across state and federal courts. That experience sharpened her ability to manage complex cases, evaluate risk and develop persuasive legal strategies – skills she now applies to high-conflict and financially intricate family law matters. She is licensed to practice in the United States Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, the United States District Courts for the Northern and Central Districts of California, and the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of California.

Ms. Reddy maintains a strong commitment to public service. Through her pro bono efforts, she has assisted survivors of domestic violence seeking immigration protections, represented individuals in federal proceedings and advocated for children in guardianship cases. Her dedication to youth advocacy earned her the Excellence in Child-Centered Representation Award from Legal Services for Children in 2025.

Before entering the legal profession, Ms. Reddy taught middle school mathematics in Oakland, an experience that continues to influence her practical, client-focused communication style. She earned her J.D. with honors from Emory University School of Law, where she was inducted into the Order of Barristers and received multiple service distinctions, and her undergraduate degree in public policy from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She is an active member of The Bar Association of San Francisco and the South Asian Bar Association of Northern California.
