Profession(s)
Lawyer, Attorney, MediatorThe experience and skill I have from my years as a litigator in family law, brought me to the field of collaborative law. By far, it's the most sensible and fair way to end a marriage.
Most of my high-income cases rely on this forum for resolving their divorce disputes. We work in a private, child-centered way, with collaborative attorneys and a mental health professional. There's enough anxiety in the world that we don't need to needlessly add to it, and there's too much at stake to waste time and emotional energy on the demise of a marriage. You can be working forward rather than back. I'll work on zoom, but I prefer to work in person because we tend to get more done. Located off of Alexander Rd exit of Rt. 1.

Comments
In Central New Jersey, the Courts are overloaded, and there are too few judges to hear all of the divorce matters. All of the Judges are working hard, and doing their jobs, but they are simply understaffed. This makes what was already an inefficient system even more difficult for clients to manage, and the delays have tended to increase the over all costs of divorce. Beyond this, most cases don't need litigation. Emotions are a natural part of divorce, but they do not need to subsume the entirety of a separation. Let cooler heads prevail and get the emotional support needed so that a family can restructure and divorce without added pain.
