As both a licensed attorney and certified mediator, I represent and work with clients in every facet of family law in Southeast Michigan.
I am also certified by the International Academy of Collaborative Professionals and the Collaborative Practice Institute of Michigan to practice collaborative law. Collaborative divorce is a unique, interdisciplinary and primarily out of court process that removes much of the venom and tension from typical divorce proceedings and focuses on solutions and the well-being of the parties and their family. I pride myself on being direct with clients and fully apprising them of their options and the realities of their particular case, matter or situation. I always treat clients with respect and do my best to bring kindness, thoughtfulness, humor and compassion to every client interaction, conversation and representation.
