I'm a 22-year lawyer, practicing in the areas of complex family law and civil litigation.  Most of my cases are high-conflict.  I am acutely aware that my job is not to make my clients' relationship with their (soon-to-be) ex worse.  Years after you forget my name, you'll have to deal with the person with whom you're fighting now.  I am a results-driven, solution-oriented lawyer.  My job is to work myself out of a job.  Each of my clients has my cell phone number.  I am never, ever, out-of-touch.  In addition to my practice, I'm an adjunct professor, teaching family law at Arizona Summit Law School.. I'm 47, originally from New York City, but lost the accent years ago.  I'm married with two teenaged boys.  In my spare time, I write fiction, articles, and collect pinball machines.
