Attorney Information
Overview
I represent business owners, C-suite executives, professionals, and their spouses who want to protect their livelihood and minimize the emotional and financial costs of divorce. My approach is to facilitate a constructive process by offering the full continuum of divorce resolution options, such as mediation or Collaborative Divorce. Listening carefully to my clients’ concerns, I work with them to develop goals and plans for their future. I look at divorce from my clients’ perspective and know they are individuals whose families and financial situations are unique and deserve a customized solution. My goal is to advise clients on the best approach to resolve their family law matters and achieve a successful outcome.
Here’s how:
- Explore out-of-court options for complex financial and parenting matters, including Collaborative Divorce and mediation, to achieve an efficient resolution.
- Empower clients to make informed and well-advised decisions that will serve them in the long term.
- Protect clients’ business interests with knowledgeable strategies for dividing complex assets.
- Ensure that non-monied clients understand finances to secure resources for their post-divorce lives.
