Years of intense family law courtroom experience have taught me that the best outcome for your family most likely will not be delivered from the court system. The judge or the commissioner has a very limited snapshot of your family and has a very limited amount of time during which he or she must make a decision.
In addition, consumers of legal services have evolved over time and now desire more control over the outcome and the cost of their litigation. That being said, certain family law situations may only be appropriately resolved within the court system.
My firm embraces the concept that durable family law outcomes are the result of a client-led and attorney-guided process. Therefore, my boutique family law firm offers the following unique range of legal services:
- Unbundled or “a la carte” legal consultation, review and preparation;
- Mediation; for self-prepresented pro se parties, and;
- Collaborative Law representation.
My belief that educated consumers of legal services has resulted in the development of a client library offering materials about regarding surviving the divorce process, guiding your child through the often trumatic process, addressing financial issues and resolving post-divorce issues.
We pledge we will listen to your needs and we will treat you with dignity and respect. We pledge to allow you to determine the extent of our services which will determine the cost of our services. Please contact our office to schedule a consultation.
