Divorce and family law issues are always difficult, and unfortunately the adversarial nature of our legal system often makes them even harder to resolve. Sometimes it takes a different kind of approach to reach a good result.
Like any good lawyer, I work hard to protect my clients' rights and advance their interests for the long term. However, in my experience, people are happier and more satisfied with the ways they resolve their legal issues when they use collaborative techniques such as mediation, rather than traditional courtroom litigation. Collaborative techniques often lead to better settlements and tend to give you a greater sense of control over your legal issues. They also help you avoid the bitterness that so often lingers on after divorce and other family law disputes, leaving you and your loved ones in a healthier position.
