Divorce & Family Law

Divorce, custody battles, and support issues among other family law matters can be devastating to you and your family and both emotionally and financially draining. With a commitment to advocating your rights and advancing your best interests and those of your child(ren), I will work diligently to help you get the best possible resolution for you and your family.  I have the skill and tenacity to take the case through trial. But, I will explore other feasible alternatives for a favorable and potentially quicker resolution.  Please take a moment to review my Marital, Family and Divorce Mediation page and consider whether litigation or mediation is better suited to your needs.

One of the most, if not the most, important concerns when facing separation and/or divorce is ensuring the emotional and mental health and well-being of the children.  Below are books I've found that help parents better relate to their children during divorce and better communicate to their children about the divorce. When both parents can truly put the childrens' interests first, things begin to fall into place, the divorce process becomes less destructive for all parties involved, and every one can look forward to moving on to happier futures.
