Profile Intro: 
I work as part of a Collaborative Practice team to help divorcing couples get through the legal and emotional transitions, so they can decide together, efficiently and respectfully, what will be best for both of them and for their children. I also work as a mediator, consulting counsel for clients who are mediating, and as a settlement specialist for clients who want to retain control over the outcome of their dispute.
