I am trained in collaborative law in which the parties and their attorneys agree that they will not litigate the matter and instead turn their efforts towards working together to reach an agreed solution creating a "win-win" situation. It is a relatively new practice option with specific training requirements and does not even appear yet as a practice area in Avvo!

Posted by anonymous | November 03, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Excellent Representation

I switched to Susan in the midst of a very contentious divorce when I was looking for an attorney who was both well respected and who would also advocate more aggressively for my rights in the process. I am very happy with Susan and her advocacy on my behalf. She has helped make a complicated divorce... process more understandable, and has made me feel like I gained back some control - as opposed to simply responding to a conflict-oriented ex spouse. All in all she has helped me successfully move on with my life, which is what we all hope for when deciding to divorce. If you’re looking for an attorney who will be responsive, aggressive when necessary, and just an all around helpful person when it comes to this type of fraught process, then you won’t be disappointed with Susan.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
