We specialize in providing a tailored and intelligent approach to each family law case.

We leverage our considerable expertise to resolve all issues strategically – from the simple to the most complex. We are diligent and ethical.

Divorce is a highly personal transaction that impacts you, your children, and your financial future. We believe that part of our role as your attorney is to demystify the divorce process and help you successfully navigate through this phase in your life and achieve the best outcome.

Each case involves strategic decisions about the substantive issues and the best process to achieve your goals. From the outset, we educate you about legal issues so that you are well equipped to make informed decisions about how you want to approach each issue. We explain your options for the resolution of your case and we make a strategic decision with you on the best process going forward (litigation, mediation, or negotiated settlement) and the best venue (public courthouse or the use of a private judge or mediator).
