I tried over 50 jury trials and, as a trial lawyer, I loved every minute of it, but as a human being, I came to realize that a trial in a courtroom is no place to restructure a family who is having to go through a divorce.

Even though over 95% of all cases are settled before trial, few people consider the difference in a case that is settled...
