Comments
I seek a fair result for all parties, and a child centered approach where children are involved. I bring the resources necessary to help parties solve problems where the dissolution of their marriage is further complicated by business, tax, retirement, bankruptcy or other ancillary concerns. I represent the short and long term interests of my client zealously, while seeking to preserve civility and honesty, and achieve a healthier long turn resolution to families in transformation
