After dedicating my practice exclusively to family law matters since 1997, I passed the specialization exam and became a Certified Family Law Specialist in July 2008. My boutique firm is small, and my case load is managed exclusively by me. I do not have associate attorneys who will work on your case. I like to meet my clients in person, obtain the history of their case, and assess their individual situation. My goal is to settle cases where I can, and litigate when necessary. I am a tough fighter in court when litigation is called for. If children are involved, I try to settle if possible, as it is better for the children in the long run, to have parents who can work together. If the parents are at war, the children inevitably suffer. When litigation is the only alternative, I devote my energy and time to doing the best job possible to achieve the desired results. I have been married since 2000, and have two young children, so I understand the demands of balancing a career with raising children. Call today for a free 15 minute phone consultation to determine if I can help you!

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.

Finally... a peaceful and fair divorce for a low flat fee Divorce does not have to destroy your family emotionally or financially. Court has nothing to do with fairness and divorce lawyers can keep things going just to make more money. Divorce mediation saves money, time and stress. Why pay lawyer fees of $40,000 to $400,000 when you don't need to?. ---. I have a Masters in Special Education and taught severely emotionally disturbed children for many years. I came to the law with a bias in favor of doing what is in the best interest of the children and was saddened to see how our adversarial system rips up families with no thought of fairness or helping couples get along (instead of fighting) so the children can be protected. After 8 years of private practice I swore I would never take another adversarial case and have done nothing but mediation for the past 5 years. I have helped over 350 couples divorce without fighting and every one has made a deal after working with me. On average it takes between 4.5 - 7 hours to complete the whole thing. Cutting divorce lawyers out of the process saves a LOT of money, stress and ugliness.
