Handling All Family Law Issues
I am ready to help protect your rights and interests regarding every aspect of family law. My child custody and visitation cases include initial custody and visitation matters as well as modifications of existing custody and visitation orders. I handle child support and spousal support issues, always seeking a fair determination of support. I resolve questions of complex property division, including business valuation and community property issues.
I will represent you in emergency screenings, assessments and hearings to obtain restraining orders, if necessary. I also advise divorce and family law clients in matters involving support, paternity and enforcement of court orders.
I know that my clients often need to strike a balance between aggressively protecting their rights and negotiating settlements that allow them to get on with their lives. My priority always lies with the best interests of my clients.
An Experienced Mediator
Family law disputes often require a compromise. Mediation is an alternative to litigation that allows the parties to reach their own agreement and resolve the issues in their case. Mediation gives the parties more control over the outcome of the case and results in agreements more likely to satisfy both parties.
I am available to act as a mediator in your case. I know that each couple's situation is different, and I am sensitive to the needs of each party. As a mediator, I will do my best to help you and your spouse come to an agreement that works for both of you and for your children.
