Practice Areas

Child Custody 35%

The scariest aspect of family law for clients has to be determining the shared parenting arrangements of their children. Custody and parenting time disputes are a large portion of my practice.

35%
Mediation 35%

I serve as an intermediary between divorcing parties in order to facilitate agreement and resolution. Mediation is appropriate for all areas of family law including modification of court orders. Ask your attorney if mediation is the right option for you.

35%
Arbitration 10%

Indiana provides for the opportunity to hire your arbitrator rather than go to court for resolution of your family law matter. This allows for confirmed scheduling, quicker decisions, and summary presentation of the evidence.

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.
