After going through my own divorce in my early-20s at the Torrance courthouse, I went to law school, became an attorney, and established a family law office in Torrance in 2013 to assist other families in transition. After 10 years of grueling court battles, and after I became a parent to young children, I made a conscientious decision to step away from the courtroom and work with families using mediation and collaborative divorce principles of conflict resolution.
