Biography

After five years of practice as an associate attorney and partner at a high volume litigation firm, I decided to start my own firm with a more relaxed firm philosophy with a true work/life balance for my support staff and myself. While I continue to represent clients in court for divorce and separation, spousal maintenance/alimony, parenting/custody, asset division, and modification of court orders, I am moving towards representing clients in “gray divorces” for clients over age 50. In over two decades of practice, I have learned that my clients are regularly act as “partners” with their family law matter.
