Biography

After a career spent resolving divorces through the judicial system, it is a pleasure for me to offer alternatives that many of my clients find are more consistent with their personal values.
I offer people the power of determining their own future, the promise of focusing on what it most important to them and the opportunity to preserve what is best of what they have created.
By focusing on shared goals and facilitating a less contentious discussion, I help people navigate the difficulties of divorce (and other conflicts) and find the resolution they truly want with their dignity intact.
Circumstances change. People evolve. These realities needn’t foretell financial ruin or endless hostility.
