Firm: Port Gardner Law
6003 23rd Drive W. Suite 250 , Everett , Washington 98203
Practice Areas: Family
I have been practicing law for over 29 years (30 years this year), most of which has been focused upon family law, including all aspects from starting a family, adoption, custody, separation, divorce, and often handling complex property/ high asset and business issues. In addition, I routinely handle international divorces and international custody cases, Hague cases, and interstate disputes. I also represent parents in juvenlle cases (dependency and neglect), and guardianship cases. In my practice, I work to offer a collaborative approach if possible for a case, although I zealously advocate for my clients. I enjoy helping people find solutions instead of creating unnecessary obstacles, and I endeavor to do this respectfully and diligently, helping my clients look at all avenues to resolve their case. I encourage parents to consider the children in regards to their actions in cases, especially when formulating parenting plans or planning a relocation. I am a certified mediator and a trained collaborative lawyer. I am a member of the American Bar Association Family Law Section, the Washington State Bar Association, Oregon State Bar Association, Colorado Bar Association, International Association of Collaborative Professionals, AFCC, the National Association of Counsel for Children, and Whatcom Collaborative Law Group. I practice in Snohomish County, Skagit County and Whatcom County. In my "free time" I enjoy hiking, yoga, kayaking, spending time with my family, going to concerts, and taking care of animals.

I have served as a family law attorney in Snohomish County since 1998. I currently also serve as as a mediator and arbitrator for family law cases. I have mediated more than 1900 cases for other attorneys and arbitrated approximately 750 cases as well. I have made hundreds of decisions in family law cases as a Commissioner Pro Tem.. I focus on establishing a temporary status quo for my clients, and then work toward a settlement. I believe settlement is almost always the best solutions for my clients; however there are a few instances where ultimately we have to proceed with trial.. I look forward to working with you for your family law needs.
