Long Distance Divorce Turned Out Easier Than Expected
When I went through my divorce, my ex-husband moved back to his home state right after we separated, so going to court/mediation in person wasn't an option.

"I have faced Susan on the other side of litigation and negotiation. She is both a worthy opponent and an amicable negotiator. Susan is smart, prepared, passionate, practical and reasonable. All the things you want in a family law attorney. Her collaborative law practice is especially well known in the legal community. I highly endorse Susan for all aspects of family law."
"I endorse this lawyer, for all matters but particularly for the collaborative divorce process. Susan and I have successfully concluded a collaborative divorce and Susan's patient, intelligent contributions to the process helped to insure our success. In addition, as President of the Collaborative Law Association of Southwestern Pennsylvania, Susan did an excellent job of working toward our goal of educating the public and the legal community about the collaborative process."
