I have been in practice since 1992, and have a diverse legal background.  I bring a wide knowledge of real estate, bankruptcy, litigation, landlord/tenant, contracts and insurance law to my family law practice, which I now practice exclusively.  I also have specialized knowledge in mental health issues, as well as domestic abuse and substance abuse, and often work with mental health professionals in those areas.. I am divorced myself with three daughters, and understand well the stress and emotions that accompany the divorce process. I promote low conflict processes, including mediation, collaborative and cooperative divorce.  While some cases need to be heard in court, most issues can be resolved with a willingness to put the family first.  Low conflict dispute resolution goes more quickly, and costs less money.. When I am not working or with my family, I am an active volunteer for various non-profit organizations and charities.
