Greetings:. As an Elder Law Attorney and former special education teacher, I have been involved in advocating for individuals with different needs from both the legal level and the societal level for my entire work career.  I began teaching individuals with learning disabilities in a model resource room environment.  I incorporated research into my classroom to develop the most effective teachning methods.  I was instrumental in implementing the use of computers into the classroom for children of all abilities.. When I changed careers and entered law school, I was drawn to the areas of law that advocated for individuals with disabilities or to those who are less frequently heard.  Elder Law was a natural extension of my years spent as a special education teacher.. I continue to advocate for the underserved in our society by my involvement with legal organization.  I served as chair of the Washington State Bar Association Elder Law Section, and as a member of the Board of Directors for the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys.  I am currently working with the State Bar Association on the Guardianship task force to bring all counties in the state into compliance with the guardianship statute.  I have served as legislative liaison for the King County Bar Assoication.. My commitment to the policy of law demonstrates the commitment that I have to my clients.

US Supreme Court Justice Burger advised lawyers to be “Healers of Conflict”. We agree. 98% of our clients surveyed (over a 2 year period) report they would recommend us to a friend or use the firm again. We have helped people in more than 1 thousand cases. We would like the opportunity to help you. Our job is to help you to “heal” conflicts as productively, as cheaply and as quickly as possible, not to promote them or provoke them. Having studied conflict resolution theory since the 1970’s we work with you to better understand how the legal system can be used, along with other “alternative dispute resolution” strategies, to resolve the conflicts or problems that led you to seek assistance.
