Few legal areas are as emotionally charged as divorce proceedings. Many legal matters arise when a marriage is to be dissolved and it can be a confusing process. The more knowledge you have, the better able you are to cope with the stress and to reach a resolution that works for you.

I have extensive experience in both litigation and in non-adversarial alternatives, such as mediation. Mediation can save time and money and preserve relationships to the extent possible. I also handle post-divorce matters, including support and visitation rights as well as the enforcement of court orders.

Family law is an aspect of the legal profession that is, of necessity, intensely personal. Clients need strong support through these highly emotional times so that calm and reasoned decision-making can occur. This is a very difficult but important time in one’s life.

When you are forced to face the reality that your family can no longer function together, the best route is to find effective and creative ways to resolve the important issues of custody and support as well as the division of property and debt. The better able you are to do this, the better equipped you will be after the divorce to move forward and to assist your children in adjusting to their changed family.

The court system is limited in the solutions it can provide for your family. A creative attorney can permit your family to step out of the box and into settlements that are personally designed to meet your family's needs.
