Collaborative Services
I am excited to be a part of what hopefully will be the wave of the future for divorcing couples. Collaborative law is the best mechanism I have found to help people through this process in a positive way. By applying my knowledge of the law and my skills in counseling, facilitating, and communicating, I can guide my clients successfully through this most difficult time in their lives.
