The above video is a couple of years old.  A new one is currently on my web page - .. I began practicing family law in 1986.  For 29 years I have been an effective, thorough and respected member of the Washington Bar. I have represented many wonderful men and women, some of whom still keep in touch with me today.  I have had the privilege of appearing before some excellent King County Family Law Commissioners and King County Judges, some of whom are no longer with us, and I feel validated by the kind and complimentary comments I have received from them over the years about my approach to family law, my thoroughness, and my civility in the process.  I have expanded from being a sole practitioner to running a corporation and working with four associate attorneys, and brainstorming with them on all of their cases.

Since I was a child I defended the underdog, getting myself into trouble by fighting battles that weren’t my own. Bullies, schoolyard thieves, and other would-be wrongdoers were never a match for my sense of justice and my willingness to stand up for the little guy. I just can’t mind my own business when I see injustice, so the law was the perfect path for me. Every day I can take pride in the fact that my job is to take care of people who for one reason or another can’t stand up for themselves. I am dedicated to helping you and your loved one through life’s legal battles.
