Claimed Lawyer Profile
Biography
I came to Louisiana in 1975 from New York to attend law school. I graduated in 1978 from Loyola College of Law, New Orleans, and I was granted admission to the Louisiana Bar in 1979. I have remained in Louisiana and have practiced family and juvenile law for 36 years. I love my work and I especially like being able to help clients develop custodial and parenting plans post- physical separation and/or divorce. I am a trained mediator and a collaborative divorce lawyer.
