About Sergio Cabanas, Esq.

Sergio Cabanas is a dedicated divorce lawyer and family law advocate with a deeply personal mission: to protect families from the very system that once hurt his own.

Born in Puerto Rico to a resilient Cuban family, Sergio’s story begins with his parents fleeing Cuba after their family farm was seized by the Castro regime. Determined to rebuild their lives, his father instilled in him an unshakable work ethic and a profound respect for education—teaching Sergio early on that knowledge is power.

While his siblings chose careers in medicine, Sergio was drawn to justice and the law, becoming the first lawyer in his family. But his path wasn’t just professional—it was personal. As a child, he endured the trauma of a painful divorce, separated from the father he loved. That experience left a deep scar and shaped his life’s mission.

Sergio made a solemn promise to himself:

“If I ever become a lawyer, I won’t let what happened to my family happen to anyone else.”

That vow is the foundation of Divorce Lawyers | Cabanas Law Firm. Sergio didn’t just build a career; he built a purpose. Today, he leads a team committed to helping clients navigate divorce with dignity, protecting what matters most—their families, their children, and their future.

If you’re searching for a trusted divorce lawyer who truly understands what’s at stake, Cabanas Law Firm is here to help.

Mi caso de adopción llevaba meses estancado y me sentía desesperado porque mi abogado anterior me dejó a la mitad y fue como un valdazo de agua fría. Llegué a con referencias al bufete del Dr. Sergio y él tomó mi caso con una dedicación que me dejó sin palabras. No solo resolvió los problemas legales, sino que también me devolvió la esperanza en el proceso. Hoy tengo a mi hijo en casa y una nueva oportunidad de ser feliz. Todo esto fue posible gracias a su ayuda. Es una persona extraordinaria que pone el corazón en lo que hace.
