I have been practicing family law in the South Bay for over 20 years and have a vast amount of experience in litigation, negotiations, counseling and mediation.  There are many approaches that can be pursued in family law cases and the manner in which a client and his/her lawyer decide to litigate the case is critical to the outcome.  I take the time to provide my clients with all of the information they need to make informed decisions in all aspects of their case, including setting goals and formulating a strategy to achieve the best results.
