Guardianship

I help families who are distressed about exploitation or living conditions of a loved one.

I help families who want to address challenges and transitions fairly, peaceably, cost effectively, and in ways that result in sustainable, workable, long term solutions. The families who are attracted to my services are those who want to achieve fair and sustainable results, and who wish to do so without treating each other as enemies or adversaries.

I have been licensed as an attorney since 1984 and practicing non-adversarial family and elder law and mediation since 2009. My training in mediation includes study with nationally recognized mediators such as Carl Schneider, Richard Blackburn, and Zena Zumeta. I am a member of the family and elder sections of the Association for Conflict Resolution.

"I routinely read Ms. Skinner's answers to questions here on Avvo and think to myself, "I've got nothing to add; she covered it all." She clearly not only knows the law but demonstrates that she has the ability to apply it properly. She is also exceptionally diplomatic in her responses. Ms. Skinner is an asset to the legal community, and I would not hesitate to refer anyone to her in the Columbia, SC area."
