As the third child in a family filled with doctors, I have deep interest in helping people. I went with my father when he cared for sick people in our town. I saw the relief he brought to them simply by showing up.. As your attorney, I “show up” for you, too. Your case is what requires my focus and attention. And that’s what it will receive. In my family, we are very science-based when it comes to problem-solving. We want to know the facts in order to determine the solution and treatment. It is the same with your case. Knowing the facts, and the law, I can then determine what we need to “cure” or resolve the issue and attain your goals.. The law is based on facts. Taking an analytical, methodical and scientific approach is often what allows for progress, removes contention and fosters an efficient and effective solution.. Once I take your case, it is my job to ensure you are protected. Do not let my calm and pragmatic style in court mask the fact that I am passionate and fierce advocate for my clients.

I practice exclusively in family law with experience representing clients across Cook, Lake, DuPage, Will, Kane, and McHenry counties in Illinois. I provide counsel to clients in a wide range of matters, including the negotiation and litigation of complex financial disputes, business interests, property valuation and division, maintenance (spousal support), child support, custody and parenting plans, and parentage issues. In addition, I represent clients in the preparation of prenuptial agreements, in post-divorce issues such as enforcement and modifications of Judgments, and in civil litigation related to orders of protection and domestic violence..

Whether through litigation, attorney assisted mediation, or settlement negotiations, I approach cases from multiple angles and lenses and then tailor an individualized strategy for each client.
