I founded my firm to help client's navigate family law matters in a better way: with a holistic, social-science informed, team-based approach to identifying and addressing issues impacting my clients and providing them with tailored solutions to address their concerns. Over a decade later, our firm continues to excel at aiding clients who struggle with: (1) understanding what steps take to take and when to meet the changing needs of their family; (2) understanding what rights, interests and obligations they have; (3) creating and executing a plan to protect those interests - however complex; and (4) determining what outside professionals can be involved to streamline resolution of their case, to minimize uncertainty during major life changes or to aid the family in an on-going capacity after legal work has concluded. I serve my clients by bringing sound judgment from years of legal experience and a personal approach to each client, educating clients as to their options and the law as it applies to their family, thoughtfully analyzing finances, empowering clients to make sound decisions to achieve their goals, and involving other professionals when it makes sense.. *.
