My approach to the practice of law comes from a strong background in civil litigation and an understanding of the importance of approaching legal disputes with an eye toward problem solving. Separation and divorce can place an enormous emotional and financial strain on a family, and communications between couples can become destructive and hurtful, or break down altogether. Because litigation can escalate conflict and limit opportunities to communicate and reach agreement, I strive to resolve family matters through collaborative dispute resolution and mediation. When Collaborative Resolution is not suitable I provide litigation services designed to get results. Learn more about the services I can provide by calling me at or by visiting my website at .
