Clients undergoing a divorce deserve to be informed and educated about no-Court divorce options and alternatives in order to enable them to select the process best suited for their family and personal needs.  My goal in handling divorce cases, whether through mediation or collaborative law, is to empower individuals to resolve conflict peacefully and cost-effectively through communication and mutual respect.  I believe that individuals hold the key to resolve their conflicts respectfullyand peacefully without having to go to Court and exhausting their resources.

I love baseball, boxers and bankruptcy.  And not necessarily in that order.  I fell into the practice of bankruptcy law years and years ago, and it has been a perfect match for me.  I love getting rid of debts, and helping folks get back on track with their financial lives.  It gives me great pleasure to wipe out credit card debts and even the IRS debts.  I fell into the perfect job for me.. After years and years of Cub fan futilism, I made the switch to the White Sox.  In time for the 2005 World Series, so that was great.  Now i feel the Cubs calling me back, and am feeling White Sox futilism.....it may be too late for me to switch back.  We will see.  But I love baseball and am a huge fan.  Period.. Boxers too.  I love my Boxer male, but he passed away about two years ago. I want him back.  That's futile too.  I miss taking him to work with me.  I think i am almost ready for another. Hopefully soon.
