Family law legal services, including litigation, mediation, collaborative law. 

I believe that divorce and other family law issues are among the most difficult challenges that you may face.  

The decisions that are made in your family law case will have a lasting effect on you, your spouse, and your children.

My office offers representation in all areas of family law, including marital dissolution actions, child custody, and child support.  Since 1999, I have been a Certified Family Law Specialist [Board of Specialization, State Bar of California.]  I am also a trained mediator and have been mediating family law disputes for over twenty years.  In addition, I have been handling collaborative family law cases for many years. 

My goal is to find the process which best suits your needs, and in my experience, this decision is often far more important to the participants than the relevant laws. Although many people want to pursue mediation or collaborative law, those two methods may not be appropriate and I will do my best to ensure that you choose the right path during this difficult time.
