I have been in practice since 1992, and have a diverse legal background.  I bring a wide knowledge of real estate, bankruptcy, litigation, landlord/tenant, contracts and insurance law to my family law practice, which I now practice exclusively.  I also have specialized knowledge in mental health issues, as well as domestic abuse and substance abuse, and often work with mental health professionals in those areas.. I am divorced myself with three daughters, and understand well the stress and emotions that accompany the divorce process. I promote low conflict processes, including mediation, collaborative and cooperative divorce.  While some cases need to be heard in court, most issues can be resolved with a willingness to put the family first.  Low conflict dispute resolution goes more quickly, and costs less money.. When I am not working or with my family, I am an active volunteer for various non-profit organizations and charities.

I enjoy Bass fishing, competitive tournament tennis, and spending time with my beloved dog, Primo.

I am a  1990 graduate  of Marquette University Law School and have been practicing in Southeastern Wisconsin since that time.  You can learn more about my areas of practice and experience on my web site, Facebook and LinkedIn.  Areas of practice have been family law, divorce, legal separation, custody child support, guardianships, termination of parental rights, adoptions, children in need of protective services, grandparents rights, paternity, wills and estates.  I also have an unique area of law practice in equine law.  As a horse owner and lover, this provides me with the experience and background to assist owners and business people in contractual and litigation matters relating to horses.  In August, 2022, I was admitted to practice law in the State of Illinois.  This allows me to continue to represent clients in their legal matters over the bordering States.. I am licensed to practice law in the State of Wisconsin , the State of Illinois, Eastern District of the United States District Court, and the United States Court of Appeals, 7th Circuit.  I have been successful in appeals in both the State of Wisconsin and the United States Court of Appeals, 7th Circuit.  I argued before the Wisconsin Court of Appeals, District I in a landmark child support case of Winkler vs. Winkler, 282 746, 2005 WI , 699 N.W.2d 652(Ct. ).. With more than 30 years of experience as a family law attorney, I look forward to meeting the needs of my clients with a problem solving approach.  I have been flattered to be representing the children of former clients over the years, many of whom have told me that I have helped them to have a positive childhood, despite being children of divorced or separated families.

After graduating from law school in 2003, I worked for appeals court judges for two years to observe high caliber lawyering and see how judges make their decisions.  Since 2005, my practice has focused entirely on representing people who are harmed.  I seek to hold those responsible accountable for the losses they cause.  I am a trial lawyer.
