I have over 25 years of family law expertise and serve on the Orange County panel of attorneys qualified to represent minor children. I am a founding board member of Kids First, an educational workshop program designed to assist families through the processes of separation, custody and visitation. My experiences have given me unique insight into the concerns of divorcing parents and the circumstances that affect their children.

As an experienced trial attorney, I have seen the emotional and financial toll that clients endure when forced to court, having to rely on a judge to determine their personal divorce and custody issues. Many matters surrounding marriage dissolution can be resolved more efficiently, more affordably and more peacefully when parties work together under the guidance of a knowledgeable and sensitive mediator.

My experience as a successful mediator will assist in the process, and guide the parties toward reaching a mutually acceptable agreement. I have helped my non mediation clients avoid court by working tirelessly to reach an agreement with the opposing attorney, or opposing party.
