Lawyer, AttorneyOur business philosophy
We offer our clients "intelligent and compassionate family law." We listen to their unique situations and needs. We understand their stresses in family disputes. We strive to solve their legal problems with creative solutions. We try to be cost and time-efficient in our efforts. We strongly advocate for our clients.
We attempt to first solve client problems through the methods of collaborative law, negotiation and problem-solving, rather than initially pushing the case into litigation. This collaborative effort with clients and opposing attorneys reduces client stress, is time and cost-efficient, solves legal problems rather than creates them, and achieves more meaningful solutions for our clients.
