My legal career began in 1984 in the areas of general practice and litigation.  Through the years my interest, energy and skills have led me to concentrate on family law which is now my sole area of practice.  Since 2001 I have been a member of the Collaborative Family Law Council of Wisconsin and can offer the collaborative divorce process to my clients. I also offer services as a mediator, an arbitrator,  a special master and Guardian ad Litem.

I believe that as a family lawyer it is my role to guide people through what is one of the most traumatic and stressful times of their life.  I work hard to maintain stability and consistency for the children when they are separated into two households.    I listen to my clients and advise them on what the law is while giving them options so they may assess for themselves the impact of their decisions on their future and their family.
