She has found her clerkship experience to be invaluable as she can better relate to court administration, court staff, and being a law clerk demystified the experience of appearing in court.  By way of background, Margaux grew up in Westport, Connecticut. After attending college at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, Margaux moved to Minneapolis to attend Law School at the University of Minnesota in 2002, and never left. She now resides in the West Metro with her husband, children, and mini Goldendoodle. In her free time Margaux enjoys spending time with her family, networking, yoga, trying new restaurants, listening to podcasts/Audible and catching up with her "Law School Ladies.” What Margaux likes about the practice of family law is how multi-faceted her work is as it involves client interaction, collaboration with other lawyers, legal writing and research, appearing in court, participating in alternative dispute resolution sessions, and helping people through one of the most difficult events in their lives. She also finds family law stimulating because it intersects with other areas of the law and other subject matters (psychology, tax issues, financial issues, real estate matters, bankruptcy, child development, etc.) providing interaction with professionals in other fields as well. Margaux also has an appreciation for the fact that family law has moved more towards an emphasis on forms of alternative dispute resolution and settlement early on in the process rather than litigation. She believes this betters serves the parties involved. Family law cases can be emotionally-charged, high conflict and can at times involve complex financial and/or social issues. Margaux adeptly keeps her clients informed about the process and their options along the way, she is able to manage the difficult dynamics that come with family law work and does so in a professional and courteous manner. With her background and experience in family law, Margaux is knowledgeable and offers a wealth of resources for her clients..
