| General Comments |
| I view collaborative practice as a peace movement on the personal level and am dedicated to making it a sought after alternative for resolving disputes, particularly in the family law arena. As an active member of the Collaborative Council of the Redwood Empire, I promote Collaborative Practice by speaking publicly, and by working on the Protocol Committee to address and fine tune standards of practice. |
